Summary

Farley Middle in Hutto, TX, serves 674 students in grades 6-8 and is the smallest of three middle schools in the Hutto Independent School District (Isd), with a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.3:1 and about 42% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Farley Middle has a clear strength in accelerating its top math students, with 66.67% of students scoring proficient on the Algebra I End-of-Course exam in 2025-2026—well above the state average of 54.03%. However, this success masks broader struggles: only 21.6% of 7th graders were proficient in grade-level math, and 8th-grade math proficiency was just 32.89%, both far below state averages. Reading scores are mixed, with 8th graders outperforming the state in 2024-2025 (65.73% proficient vs. 56.39%) but dropping below the state average the following year. The school has also seen a notable spike in its dropout rate to 1.6% in 2023-2024, up from near zero in prior years.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Ridgeview Middle (91st percentile) and Kelly Lane Middle (89th percentile) in the Round Rock Independent School District (Isd), Farley’s overall ranking has declined from the 83rd percentile a decade ago to the 43rd-45th percentile range in recent years. Within its own district, Gus Almquist Middle ranks higher (53rd percentile), suggesting room for improvement. The school’s biggest challenge is translating its success with advanced math students into consistent growth for all, especially in foundational math skills.
