Summary

Skidmore-Tynan J H is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Skidmore-Tynan Independent School District (ISD) in Skidmore, Texas. The school has 192 students and a student-teacher ratio of 12.2, and its performance has been mixed over the past decade, with its statewide ranking ranging from 228 to 968 out of over 2,000 Texas middle schools.

One of Skidmore-Tynan J H's strengths is its exceptional performance in Algebra I, with 100% of students proficient or better in the 2024-2025 school year, significantly higher than the Skidmore-Tynan ISD (78.87%) and the state of Texas (47.01%) averages. The school also has consistently strong reading proficiency, with rates above the state average in most grade levels and years. However, its overall mathematics performance has been more variable, with some years seeing proficiency rates below the state average across multiple grade levels.

Skidmore-Tynan J H faces some challenges, including a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 70.31% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's performance in serving its special education population is also an area of concern, as it ranked 1,861 out of 1,881 Texas middle schools for its special education students in the 2023-2024 school year. When compared to the nearby middle schools of E Merle Smith Middle, Mathis Middle, and Moreno J H, Skidmore-Tynan J H generally outperforms these schools in terms of overall statewide rankings and proficiency rates in core subject areas, but the nearby schools also face similar challenges.
