Summary

Park Crest Middle in Pflugerville, TX, serves 682 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Pflugerville Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the middle of the pack statewide. After a pandemic-era dip to a 2-star rating, the school has stabilized at a consistent 3-star rating (57-58th percentile) over the last four years, indicating solid, average performance relative to the state.

The single most defining feature of Park Crest is its Algebra I program, where proficiency rates are dramatically higher than both the district and state averages—nearly doubling the district average in recent years. This suggests a highly effective track for accelerating advanced math students, particularly 8th graders. However, this strength creates a stark contrast with standard grade-level math, where the school consistently underperforms, especially in 7th grade where proficiency is in the single digits. This "Jekyll and Hyde" math profile means the school excels at pushing top students ahead but struggles to bring the majority to grade-level proficiency. On a positive note, Park Crest is exceptionally effective at serving its English Language Learner population, earning a 4-star rating for this subgroup, while it continues to face challenges with its economically disadvantaged and at-risk students, who make up nearly half of the student body.

Within the district, Park Crest sits in a middle position. It outperforms nearby Pflugerville Middle and Bohls Middle, but is clearly outclassed by Kelly Lane Middle (a 4-star school) and Cele Middle. Charter schools like Basis Pflugerville and Idea Round Rock Technical College Preparatory operate in a different league academically, with selective admissions or specific college-prep focuses. For parents, Park Crest offers a clear opportunity: if your child is ready for advanced math, the school provides an exceptional program, but you may need to supplement support for standard math proficiency.

Thursday, May 12, 2022

Park Crest teachers are great! The kids that want to succeed have plenty of opportunities to excel here. We have 2 currently attending. Our kids usually have 1.5-2 hours each of homework nightly (in their opinions, far too much). Overall, they're doing well, learning a lot and each have a great group of school friends. As parents, we are happy. For those interested, there are lots of clubs and sports. Close Quote
