Summary

B G Hudson Middle in Sachse, TX, is a large public school serving 1,099 students in grades 6-8 within the Garland Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out as the top-performing traditional middle school in its district, earning a 4-star statewide ranking in the 77th percentile. This school is a high-achieving outlier, significantly outperforming most of its GISD peers like Sellers Middle and Bussey Middle, which rank in the 9th to 45th percentile. However, it faces stiff competition from nearby schools in the Wylie Independent School District (Isd), such as Grady Burnett J H and Raymond B Cooper J H, which consistently rank in the 91st-94th percentile, highlighting a notable achievement gap between the two neighboring districts.

One of Hudson Middle's greatest strengths is its exceptional Algebra I acceleration program, with 93.33% of 8th graders scoring proficient or above on the Algebra I EOC in the 2025-2026 school year, far exceeding the district average of 59.09% and the state average of 54.03%. The school also excels in supporting English Language Learners, earning a 5-star rating and ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide for this subgroup. Additionally, Hudson Middle achieves strong results with a lower per-student budget ($8,243) compared to lower-performing GISD schools like Bussey ($10,240) and high-performing Wylie ISD schools like Ab Harrison Intermediate ($10,960), demonstrating impressive cost-efficiency.

Despite these successes, Hudson Middle faces a persistent challenge with a "7th grade math slump," where math proficiency drops sharply from around 35% in 6th grade to just 11% in 7th grade, a pattern also seen in other GISD schools like Webb Middle. The school's 8th-grade Science and Social Studies scores are standout strengths, with 68.42% proficient in Science compared to the district's 46.49%. While the nearby magnet school Austin Academy For Excell outperforms Hudson in most subjects, Hudson remains a solid, well-rounded choice for families seeking a strong neighborhood school with effective support for diverse learners and a near-zero dropout rate.
