Summary

Hurshel Antwine Middle in El Paso, TX, serves 701 students in grades 6-8 within the Socorro Independent School District (Isd), where 74% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

While the school maintains a very low dropout rate and shows a notable strength in Algebra I—with 75.74% of students proficient, well above the state average—its overall academic performance on core STAAR assessments generally lags behind district and state averages. A key concern is 8th-grade Social Studies, where only 23.75% of students were proficient, significantly below the district average of 35.08%. Reading proficiency across all grades is also consistently lower than the district, though 6th-grade reading has shown a positive trend, increasing from 38% to 52.5% over the past few years. The school's effectiveness in serving its special education population has seen a dramatic decline, dropping from the 78th percentile to the 22nd percentile in recent years.

Interestingly, Hurshel Antwine is the lowest-ranked middle school in its immediate district cohort, with a current 2-star rating. This is especially notable when compared to Special Rafael Hernando Middle, a nearby Socorro ISD school with a nearly identical enrollment and percentage of low-income students, yet which performs in the 79th percentile (4 stars). This comparison suggests that the challenges at Hurshel Antwine are not solely demographic but likely involve school-specific factors related to instruction or culture. The school’s success in Algebra I, contrasted with lower general math proficiency, points to a "two-tiered" math system that could be a focus for improvement.
