Summary:
Ganado Jh is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Ganado Independent School District (ISD) in Ganado, Texas, with a student population of 164. While the school has a diverse student body, with a racial makeup that is predominantly Hispanic (57.32%) and White (39.02%), its academic performance has been consistently rated as average, earning 2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger over the past several years.
One of the key challenges facing Ganado Jh is its below-average test scores, particularly in mathematics and science. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 24% of 6th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Mathematics, compared to the state average of 37%, and only 19% of 8th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Science, compared to the state average of 45%. However, the school's gifted and talented students and English Language Learner (ELL) students have performed relatively well, with the school ranking in the top 42% and top 40% of Texas middle schools for these subgroups, respectively.
When compared to nearby schools, such as El Campo Middle, Industrial J H, and Edna J H, Ganado Jh's performance is generally lower, with these schools having higher test scores, better overall rankings, and lower percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $8,851 to $10,186 over the past few years, and its low student-teacher ratio, these resources have not translated into significantly better academic outcomes for the school as a whole.
