Summary

Meyerland Middle is a sizable public magnet middle school in Houston, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a diverse student population of 1,122 students. The school consistently outperforms the Houston Independent School District (HISD) and Texas state averages on STAAR assessments, particularly in reading and Algebra I. In 2024-2025, over 60% of Meyerland Middle's students scored proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to just over 50% for HISD and Texas.

Meyerland Middle's strong academic performance is reflected in its statewide ranking, typically placing in the top third of Texas middle schools. The school's performance is especially noteworthy for certain student subgroups, such as White and Multi-racial students, who consistently rank in the top quartile of Texas middle schools. However, the school's performance for Gifted and Talented students is relatively low, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools.

While Meyerland Middle outperforms nearby HISD schools like Energized For STEM Academy Middle and Sugar Grove Academy, it lags behind the high-performing Pershing Middle and Lawson Middle, which are also HISD magnet schools. Meyerland Middle's relatively high dropout rates, ranging from 1.4% to 4.1% in recent years, are an area that warrants further investigation and potential improvement.
