Summary

Charles Baxter J H in Everman, TX, is a middle school serving 709 students in grades 6-8 within the Everman Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the bottom 14% of Texas. The school has experienced a significant and sustained decline over the past decade, dropping from the 46th percentile statewide in 2016 to the 5th percentile in 2026, and it currently serves a student population where over 95% qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The most critical challenge at Charles Baxter J H is a systemic failure in mathematics, with proficiency rates in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade math hovering around 8-12%—roughly half the rate of its already low-performing district and a fraction of the state average. This stands in stark contrast to Roy Johnson Stem Academy, a nearby school in the same district just 1.75 miles away, which achieves nearly double the math proficiency in 6th and 7th grade. Despite these struggles, Charles Baxter J H has a remarkable bright spot: 53% of its students taking Algebra I are proficient, nearly matching the state average and far exceeding the district average of 32%. This "Algebra I island" of success suggests that a targeted program for advanced math students is effective, even as the general math curriculum struggles.

Interestingly, the school spends over $13,000 per student—higher than high-performing nearby schools like Linda Jobe Middle ($8,374) and Kennedale J H ($10,657)—yet this spending has not translated into academic success. The stark performance gap with Roy Johnson Stem Academy, which serves similar demographics, indicates that school-level leadership and instructional practices are far more impactful than district policies or funding alone. Additionally, the school's dropout rate has been volatile, spiking to 2.6% in 2024, the highest among nearby traditional middle schools and a warning sign for student disengagement.
