Summary

Henry Metzger Middle is a public middle school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 907 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Judson Independent School District. Despite its proximity to several higher-performing middle schools in the area, Henry Metzger Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Texas middle schools over the past decade, with a 0-1 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Henry Metzger Middle significantly underperforms compared to the district and state averages on STAAR assessments, with only 38.12% of 6th graders proficient in reading and 11.44% proficient in math in the 2024-2025 school year. The school also struggles with higher-than-average dropout rates, ranging from 0.8% to 3.1% in recent years. Additionally, Henry Metzger Middle serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with 80-90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than nearby Judson Middle (70.34%) and Woodlake Hills Middle (81.58%).

Despite its challenges, Henry Metzger Middle's performance has remained stagnant or declined over the past decade, with no significant improvements in academic achievement or other key metrics. This suggests the school may be struggling to effectively address the needs of its diverse student population. The school's proximity to higher-performing middle schools within the same district highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to improve outcomes for the students at Henry Metzger Middle.
