Summary

Whitehouse J H in Whitehouse, TX, is a mid-sized middle school serving 751 students in grades 6-8 within the highly-rated Whitehouse Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 94th percentile statewide. The school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.7 and a low free/reduced lunch rate of 42.6%, reflecting a community with moderate economic diversity.

Whitehouse J H stands out for its exceptional performance in advanced mathematics, with 100% of 8th-grade students proficient in Algebra I in the 2025-2026 school year—far exceeding the district average of 71.72% and the state average of 54.03%. This perfect score is a clear differentiator from nearby schools like Bullard Middle and Three Lakes Middle, which also perform well but did not achieve this milestone. The school also excels in supporting Hispanic and English Language Learner students, ranking in the 93rd and 88th percentiles statewide, respectively—a notable contrast to lower performance for these groups in districts like Tyler Independent School District (Isd) and Chapel Hill Independent School District (Isd). Overall, Whitehouse J H ranks in the 85th percentile statewide, outperforming Bullard Middle (79th percentile) and Three Lakes Middle (75th percentile), and far exceeding schools like Moore Middle (51st percentile) and Chapel Hill J H (16th percentile).

Despite these strengths, the school shows a dip in 7th-grade math scores (33.02% proficient) compared to 8th-grade math (69.64%), suggesting a challenging curriculum transition or a particularly strong 8th-grade cohort. Additionally, while the school excels with Hispanic and ELL students, it has room for improvement with African American and Multi-racial students, who rank in the 57th and 51st percentiles, respectively. Notably, Whitehouse J H achieves these outcomes with a per-student spending of $8,772, which is lower than several nearby schools with weaker performance, such as Hubbard Middle ($9,298) and Chapel Hill J H ($11,953), indicating efficient use of resources. The school benefits from a strong feeder program at J W Holloway Sixth Grade School, where 6th-grade reading and math scores are above state averages, providing a solid academic foundation for incoming students.
