Summary

Pease Middle is a public middle school located in San Antonio, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 737 students. It is part of the Northside Independent School District (NISD), which is ranked 503 out of 961 school districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Pease Middle has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade.

Pease Middle consistently underperforms compared to the NISD and Texas state averages on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in STAAR Reading for 6th, 7th, and 8th grades at Pease Middle was 33.78%, 34.7%, and 36.86%, respectively, compared to NISD scores of 53.19%, 49.98%, and 55.62%, and Texas state scores of 54.21%, 51.69%, and 56.39%. Pease Middle also struggles to serve its diverse student population effectively, with the school's rankings for various student subgroups consistently in the bottom half or bottom quarter of Texas middle schools. Additionally, Pease Middle has had relatively high dropout rates in recent years, ranging from 0.8% to 1.7%, which are higher than the district and state averages.

The nearby middle schools in the Northside ISD, such as Rayburn Middle, Jones Middle, and Jordan Middle, generally outperform Pease Middle on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates on STAAR tests and higher rankings from SchoolDigger. This suggests that the challenges faced by Pease Middle may be specific to the school and not necessarily reflective of the broader district. Despite the school's long-standing struggles, the data indicates that there is room for improvement, as Pease Middle's performance on STAAR Algebra I is relatively stronger than its performance in other subject areas, suggesting that targeted interventions and support in core academic areas could potentially lead to better outcomes.

If you have the choice do not let your child attend here. Terrible teachers, lots of fights, no organization. This is the worst school. Close Quote

I go to this poor excuse of what they call a "school" Monday-Friday. Some of the teachers everyone hates , even us smart kids. the teachers are also blind to what happens right in front of them. Buildings are pretty old and poorly designed, I'm pretty sure this school has asbestos still in it. Lots of drug deals, fights and other things at this school. The football field is covered in weeds and has dried out spots.

So overall this school is horrible and really needs to be improved

When my child goes to an administrator about being bullied 4 times by the same individual, the administrator should do something to stop it.nothing was ever done and it continued to happen for months until I taught my daughter physically how to defend herself & told her to do so! You're supposed to protect the children from being bullied and it's not being done asst pease that's for sure! When someone places an order for a specific size for an item sold at the school give it to them. Don't give my child a different size which has happened every single time because you think your my child's mother & can make that decision on what size she wears! Both times in which they were wrong by the way!Stop injuring children on the bus because you can't hire competent bus drivers and they drive terrible causing injuries to students, twice in which was to my daughter. Worry more about giving the children an education than policing them! This school treats kids like convicts, not students! I will hopefully not have to subject my daughter to this poor excuse of a school next year. Close Quote

Teachers are working hard to educate students who are rude, unmannerly, disrespectful of other students, teachers and the school in general. Students throw trash on the floor, vandalize computer equipment, skip classes, fight, bully and more. Parent support is almost unheard of. Administration changes may help some but without parental support such as disciplining their children, enforces study time, bed time, tv time etc then they are fighting a losing cause. Close Quote

This school has a terrible problem with bullying and a very un-responsive administration. They are good at platitudes but poor at action. The teachers are gone more than they are there. There are few days that go by that my daughter doesn't have a substitute in at least one class. The language used by the kids waiting outside the school is deplorable, and ignored. Close Quote
