Summary

Liberty Hill Middle in Liberty Hill, TX, serves 1,050 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the highly-rated Liberty Hill Independent School District (Isd), though its state ranking has declined from a top-tier position to a more middle-of-the-pack standing in recent years.

The school shows a striking contrast in math performance. It excels in advanced mathematics, with Algebra I End-of-Course exam proficiency rates (80-98% over the last three years) that far exceed state averages and rival top schools like Artie L Henry Middle and Knox Wiley Middle. However, on-grade-level 7th-grade math proficiency is a persistent weakness, consistently falling below state averages (e.g., 21% in 2025-2026 vs. 29% statewide). This creates a "tale of two tracks": a high-flying accelerated program and a struggling standard curriculum. The school also shows uneven results for different student groups, performing well for African American students but struggling significantly with low socioeconomic status students, who ranked in the bottom third of the state in 2025-2026.

Compared to its district counterpart, Santa Rita Middle, Liberty Hill Middle has a higher poverty rate (22.4% vs. 15.4%) and generally scores lower in reading and on-grade-level math, though it outperforms in Algebra I. The school's spending per student ($7,879) is below many nearby schools like Leander Middle ($10,324), and its student-teacher ratio has risen to 16.5, higher than most comparable schools in the area. These factors, combined with a sharp decline in effectiveness for English Language Learners (now at the 17th percentile), suggest areas needing attention as the school navigates its recent ranking decline.
