Summary

La Grange Middle in La Grange, TX, serves 309 students in grades 7 and 8 and is part of the La Grange Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the 75th percentile statewide. The school has earned a 4-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year, placing it in the 80th percentile among Texas middle schools, a strong rebound from a slight dip in 2023-2024.

La Grange Middle stands out for its exceptional performance in advanced mathematics, achieving a 100% proficiency rate on the Algebra I End-of-Course exam, far exceeding the state average of 54%.

In 8th-grade math, the school also excels, with 68.29% of students proficient in 2025-2026, outperforming the state (47.24%) and nearby Smithville J H (42.59%), though slightly behind Weimar J H (74.58%). However, 7th-grade math remains an area for growth, with 32.56% proficiency in 2025-2026, just above the state average of 29.41% but well below Weimar J.H.’s 59.18%.

The school has shown remarkable improvement in serving diverse learners, with special education students jumping from the 20th to the 76th percentile and low socio-economic status students rising from the 36th to the 75th percentile in just two years. Hispanic and English Language Learner students also rank in the 84th and 85th percentiles, respectively, reflecting effective support systems. While Weimar J H (ranked 90th percentile) outperforms in overall consistency, La Grange Middle’s upward trajectory and focus on equity make it a strong choice for families seeking a school that prioritizes both academic excellence and inclusive growth.
