Better than 19% of Texas middle schools

Summary

Briesemeister Middle in Seguin, TX, serves 798 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Seguin Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the bottom 20% of Texas, with over 75% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Briesemeister Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom 20-30% of Texas middle schools over the past decade, with its most recent ranking placing it in the 19th percentile. This performance is significantly below nearby schools in neighboring districts. For example, Church Hill Middle (Comal ISD) ranks in the 81st percentile, and Marion Middle ranks in the 68th percentile. The most striking weakness is in mathematics: 7th-grade math proficiency was just 6.41%, far below the state average of 29.41% and dramatically lower than nearby schools like Church Hill Middle (27.01%) and Oakrun Middle (26.07%). Reading proficiency also lags, hovering around 35-48% compared to the state average of 53-58%.

Despite these challenges, there is a notable bright spot: Briesemeister excels in Algebra I End-of-Course (EOC) exams, with 80.33% of students proficient, far above the state average (54.03%) and even outperforming several higher-ranked schools like Canyon Middle (68.33%). This suggests a strong program for advanced students, though it does not translate to better grade-level math scores for the majority. Additionally, the school has shown a dramatic improvement in serving its African American students, who jumped from the 22nd percentile to the 51st percentile in recent years. Overall, Briesemeister faces deep-rooted systemic challenges, but these pockets of success offer hope for future improvement.
