Summary

Midway Middle in Hewitt, TX, is a large middle school serving 1,112 students in grades 6-8 within the highly-rated Midway Independent School District (Isd). The school is a consistent performer, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade, and stands out as a strong educational option in a region with significant challenges, particularly when compared to schools in the neighboring Waco Independent School District (Isd), where many schools have 0-star ratings and very low proficiency rates.

Midway Middle’s most impressive academic feature is its exceptional Algebra I program. In the most recent school year, an outstanding 95.33% of its students taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam were proficient—nearly double the state average of 54.03%. This indicates a highly effective advanced math track. However, the school’s overall math performance presents a paradox: while its advanced students excel, its standard 8th-grade math scores (33.08% proficient) fall below the state average (47.24%). This suggests that the school’s strongest math students are being pushed into Algebra I, leaving a less-prepared group in the standard class. In reading, Midway is consistently above the state average across all three grades, with proficiency rates in the low 60% range.

Within its own district, Midway Middle is the larger of two middle schools, but it is outperformed by its sister school, River Valley Middle, which consistently earns a 5-star rating and higher scores in nearly every subject. This gap is likely tied to socioeconomic factors, as River Valley has a lower rate of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch (28.16% vs. 47.03% at Midway). Midway Middle also shows a notable contrast in serving different student groups: it is exceptionally effective with English Language Learners (ranking in the 86th percentile statewide) but struggles significantly with Special Education students (ranking in the bottom 29th percentile). The school maintains a very low dropout rate of 0.0%, a strong indicator of a positive school climate and effective student support systems.
