Summary

Eastlake Middle in El Paso, TX, is a high-performing school within the Socorro Independent School District (Isd), serving 787 students in grades 6-8 and earning a consistent 4-star rating with a statewide rank in the 84th percentile. The school stands out for its exceptional ability to support students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, ranking in the 94th percentile statewide for its effectiveness with low-socioeconomic status students—a 5-star rating that far surpasses nearby schools. It also excels with its Hispanic student population, ranking in the 91st percentile, and boasts a low dropout rate of just 0.4%, well below the district average of 1.1%.

Academically, Eastlake Middle shines brightest in 8th-grade Social Studies, where 57.03% of students were proficient in the most recent testing year—a remarkable 25 percentage points higher than both the district and state averages, and significantly outperforming its nearest rival, Col John O Ensor Middle, which achieved 41.22%. The school is also a powerhouse in Algebra I, with 83.6% of students proficient on the End-of-Course exam compared to just 54.03% statewide, reflecting a strong focus on advanced math preparation. However, math performance shows a mixed picture: while 8th-grade math scores (52.38%) are above average, a 0% proficiency rate in 2023-2024 is likely an anomaly due to most advanced students taking Algebra I instead.

Eastlake Middle achieves these results with a student-teacher ratio of 17.7, which is higher than many peers like Montwood Middle (14.6) and William D Slider Middle (15.3), suggesting its success is driven by effective instructional strategies and school culture rather than smaller class sizes. The school has shown consistent improvement across all student subgroups from 2023-2024 to 2025-2026, including for English Language Learners and Special Education students, demonstrating a culture of continuous growth. While it excels with its majority populations, it shows a notable weakness with its White student subgroup (44th percentile), an area for targeted improvement. Overall, Eastlake Middle is a top-tier choice in the region, particularly for families seeking a school that closes achievement gaps and offers strong advanced coursework.
