Summary

Jack Lummus Intermediate in Ennis, TX, serves 4th and 5th grade students in the Ennis Independent School District (Isd), a district that ranks in the bottom 25% of Texas. The school has experienced a sharp, sustained decline in performance over the past four years, dropping from a high point in the 65th percentile to its lowest ranking ever at the 21st percentile in the most recent data. This downward trend is particularly concerning when compared to its sister school, Dorie Miller Intermediate, which serves the same grades within the same district and has remained relatively stable in the 44th-53rd percentile range over the same period.

The most striking differentiator is the significant performance gap between the two intermediate schools. In 4th grade math, Jack Lummus students scored 43.82% proficient compared to 65.57% at Dorie Miller—a 21.75 percentage point gap. This pattern holds across all subjects, with Jack Lummus underperforming its peer in 4th and 5th grade reading and math. The school's struggles are systemic, affecting every student subgroup, with all groups scoring at or below the 25th percentile statewide. Interestingly, the school spends $9,119 per student, which is less than some district elementary peers but slightly more than Dorie Miller ($8,896), suggesting the issue is not about funding levels but how resources are utilized.

There are a few bright spots worth noting. Jack Lummus showed notable improvement in 5th grade science in 2023-2024, outperforming both the district and state averages. Additionally, 4th graders taking the math STAAR test in Spanish scored 50% proficiency, far exceeding the state average of 29.41%. However, this success was not sustained, as 5th graders taking the same test in Spanish scored 0%, indicating an area that needs closer examination. The transition to Jack Lummus also appears to be a point of struggle for students who performed well at feeder schools like Austin Elementary and Travis Elementary, as their 3rd grade reading proficiency rates dropped significantly when those same students reached 4th grade at Jack Lummus.
