Summary

Meacham Middle is a public middle school located in Fort Worth, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 675 students. The school is part of the Fort Worth Independent School District, which is ranked 733 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Meacham Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 1816 and 2230 out of around 2,300 schools.

Meacham Middle significantly underperforms the state and district averages across most STAAR subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 30.17% of 6th graders were proficient or better in reading, compared to 54.21% statewide and 38.24% in the district. The school's math performance is particularly low, with only 3.4% of 7th graders and 15.83% of 6th graders reaching proficiency in 2024-2025. Meacham Middle also struggles to support the academic achievement of its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Texas middle schools for African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students across reading and math.

Interestingly, Meacham Middle performs significantly worse than the other middle schools in the immediate vicinity, such as Riverside Middle, Kirkpatrick Middle, and Elder Middle. These nearby schools, while still struggling, generally outperform Meacham Middle across academic metrics. The combination of a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students, low academic achievement across subgroups, and persistent challenges in improving test scores and reducing dropout rates suggests that Meacham Middle faces significant systemic challenges that may require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to address.
