Troup Middle consistently outperforms the state average in STAAR Reading and Mathematics assessments across grades 6-8, with projected proficiency rates in 2024-2025 that exceed the state averages. The school's Algebra I end-of-course proficiency rate is also projected to be 100%, significantly higher than the state average of 47.01%. However, the school's African American and White student subgroups perform significantly below the state averages, while the Hispanic student subgroup performs better.
