Summary

Harry Wright Jh in Richmond, TX, is a large middle school serving 1,444 students in grades 6-8 within the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District, and it has earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for its rapid and significant improvement over the past four years.

The most standout feature of Harry Wright Jh is its exceptional performance in advanced math. An impressive 90.28% of its students taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam were proficient, a rate that dramatically exceeds the district average of 58.33% and the state average of 54.03%. This success is on par with top-performing nearby schools like Fort Settlement Middle and Reading Jh, even though Harry Wright serves a much higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (54.7%). The school has also shown a remarkable upward trajectory, jumping from the 42nd percentile in state rankings to the 70th percentile in just three years—a trend not seen in its lower-performing peers like Lamar Jh or George Jh. It is particularly effective at supporting English Language Learners and students from low socio-economic backgrounds, ranking in the 84th and 81st percentiles for these groups, respectively.

However, this success in advanced math contrasts with a significant weakness in grade-level math, where only 28% of 7th graders were proficient. This suggests the school excels at accelerating a select group of students but struggles to bring the majority up to standard. Additionally, a higher-than-average dropout rate of 1.3% is a point of concern. While Harry Wright Jh is a clear "rising star" in the district, it still trails top performers like Briscoe Jh and Reading Jh in most subjects. Its rapid improvement makes it a school to watch, but parents should be aware of the uneven performance across different math levels and the need to support all students.
