Summary

Montgomery High School in Montgomery, TX, is a 4-star high school serving 1,523 students in grades 9-12 as part of the highly-rated Montgomery Independent School District (Isd). The school boasts a strong graduation rate of 96.2% and an exceptionally low dropout rate of 0.2%, which are among the best in the area. While the school performs well overall, it shows a notable weakness in Algebra I, with a proficiency rate of 50.4% that trails both the district average (70.8%) and the state average (54.0%). This is a persistent trend that sets it apart from its district rival, Lake Creek High School, which outperforms Montgomery in every core subject, including a 62% proficiency in Algebra I.

An interesting dynamic is the comparison with nearby schools. While Magnolia High School has a similar graduation rate (96.4%), Montgomery stands out for its lower rate of economic disadvantage, with only 23.3% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This is significantly lower than schools like Magnolia West High School (52.4%) and Willis High School (53.3%). The school also demonstrates reasonable fiscal efficiency, spending $9,102 per student, which is slightly less than some peers while still achieving a 4-star rating.

Subgroup performance reveals some surprising trends. Hispanic students at Montgomery rank in the 82nd percentile statewide, earning 4 stars, while White students rank in the 61st percentile, earning 3 stars—a reversal of typical statewide patterns. However, support for English Language Learners shows volatility, with rankings swinging from the 31st percentile to the 82nd percentile in recent years. Additionally, performance for Asian students has seen a sharp decline, dropping from the 94th percentile to the 24th percentile, though this may be due to a small sample size. These areas warrant attention from the school administration.

This school has some heartless staff! I witnessed a parent being verbally attacked today by a teacher! The parent controlled themselves very well! On several occasions I have witnessed as so have several other parents the principals and teachers being very rude, uncaring, and prejudiced! Close Quote
