Summary

Edison Middle in Houston, TX, is a public school serving 388 students in grades 6-8 within the Houston Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out for its remarkable turnaround from one of the lowest-performing middle schools in Texas to a solidly above-average institution.

Over the past five years, Edison has climbed from the 4th percentile statewide to the 70th percentile, earning a 3-star rating—a dramatic improvement that far outpaces nearby schools like Navarro Middle and Deady Middle, which have improved more slowly. The school’s math performance is exceptional: 6th-grade math proficiency (56.57%) and 8th-grade math proficiency (62.18%) significantly exceed both district and state averages, a stark reversal from just a few years ago. Edison also excels in Algebra I acceleration, with near-perfect proficiency rates (91.23%) that dwarf the district (57.63%) and state (54.03%) averages, even when compared to high-performing schools like Baylor College Of Medicine Biotech Academy At Rusk, which serves a less economically disadvantaged population.

Edison is particularly effective at supporting high-need students, ranking in the 91st percentile for special education and 88th percentile for low socio-economic status students—a level of success not seen at other nearby schools with similar demographics. While reading proficiency remains a relative weakness, the school’s consistent multi-year growth suggests a successful turnaround strategy. For parents, Edison offers a compelling option for a school that has transformed itself, especially for students who thrive in math and advanced coursework, though it still lags behind top performers like Project Chrysalis Middle in reading and science.
