Summary
C B Thompson Middle is a public middle school in Quinlan, Texas, serving 612 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Quinlan Independent School District. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools over the past 10 years, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other Texas middle schools.
C B Thompson Middle's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in STAAR Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies that are significantly lower than state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 8th-grade proficiency rates were just 39.73% in Reading, 29.78% in Math, 38.67% in Science, and 17.33% in Social Studies, compared to state averages of 56.39%, 44.81%, 46.25%, and 29.64%, respectively. The school's performance is also below the district average, suggesting it is one of the lower-performing schools within the Quinlan ISD.
While the nearby schools, such as Greenville Middle, Herman Furlough Junior Middle, and Ouida Baley Middle, also perform below the state average on STAAR assessments, some nearby schools, like Caddo Mills Middle and Lone Oak Middle, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, ranking in the top 50% of Texas middle schools. This suggests that the challenges faced by C B Thompson Middle may be more systemic within the region, rather than unique to the school itself.
