Summary

Pfc Robert P Hernandez Middle is a mid-sized school in Round Rock, TX, serving 572 students in grades 6-8 as part of the highly-rated Round Rock Independent School District (Isd), though it has historically ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools, currently at the 41st percentile.

This school presents a unique "tale of two schools" dynamic. On one hand, Hernandez Middle shows exceptional strength in advanced academics: its Algebra I End-of-Course exam proficiency rate of 95.24% far exceeds the state average (54.03%) and rivals top-performing district peers like James Garland Walsh Middle (96.79%). Its Gifted and Talented program ranks in the top 13% of the state. On the other hand, the school faces significant challenges in general education, particularly in 7th-grade math, where only 8.7% of students were proficient—a steep drop from the district average of 26.98%. This "7th Grade Math Wall" is a critical area needing intervention. The school also serves a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students (52.1%) compared to nearby high-performing schools like Cedar Valley Middle (10.57%) and Pearson Ranch Middle (13.33%), which helps explain the performance gap.

Despite these challenges, there are promising signs. Hernandez Middle has shown three consecutive years of improvement in its overall ranking, climbing from a low of the 29th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 41st percentile for 2025-2026. The school also invests heavily in its students, with a low student-teacher ratio of 10:1 and higher per-student spending ($11,249) compared to district peers. Notably, while Hernandez struggles relative to its district, it significantly outperforms its closest neighbor, C D Fulkes Middle (located just 1.59 miles away), which ranks at the 13th percentile. For example, in 8th-grade reading, Hernandez scored 62.43% proficient versus Fulkes's 40.50%. This suggests that while Hernandez has work to do, it is not in the same category of struggle as its nearest counterpart.

Open Quote Throughout the school year I have been plagued with too-hard assignments, not so friendly substitutes and unruly classmates. Despite the friendlier teachers and such, the school itself isn't that bad. I do complain that more than once my assignment got lost at the fault of a teacher, and I was forced to dig through papers to find mine. And the staff don't do anything with major problems that circle the school. Making out before classes, hanging outside in the back during first period, smoking, and self-harm. Especially self-harm. All these parents are reviewing, saying this school is amazing and great, but do they really know the things their child might be doing and/or saying? Us kids are great at keeping secrets, unfortunately. The school also ranked last amongst all the Middle schools in the district in terms of grades, ect. Very much awaiting my last day there.
