Summary

Honey Grove Middle in Honey Grove, TX, is a small, rural school serving 142 students in grades 6-8, and it has transformed into a high-performing institution within the Honey Grove Independent School District (Isd).

This school has shown remarkable improvement over the past decade, climbing from the 39th percentile statewide in 2019 to the 83rd percentile in 2026, earning a consistent 4-star rating for the last four years. A standout strength is its exceptional mathematics performance, with 8th graders achieving a 79.66% proficiency rate in 2025-2026—over 32 percentage points higher than the state average and far exceeding nearby schools like Cooper J H (32.89%) and Wolfe City Middle (57.41%). The school also excels in serving its economically disadvantaged students, ranking in the 87th percentile statewide for this group, and its Gifted and Talented program ranks in the 90th percentile. This success is particularly notable given that nearly 60% of students are economically disadvantaged, showing the school effectively overcomes challenges often associated with poverty.

While Honey Grove Middle shines in many areas, there are a few points to consider. Its performance for White students (70th percentile) is the weakest among major demographic groups, suggesting a potential area for focus. Additionally, unlike some nearby schools such as Chisum Middle and Rather L H, Honey Grove does not offer Algebra I to 8th graders, which could be a missed opportunity for math acceleration. Overall, this school’s rapid ascent from a 2-star rating to a 4-star powerhouse makes it a compelling choice for families seeking a school with strong academic growth and a focus on equity.
