Summary

Kirby Middle is a public magnet middle school located in Wichita Falls, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 446 students. The school is part of the Wichita Falls Independent School District (WFISD), which is ranked 619 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Kirby Middle consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in STAAR Reading for 6th, 7th, and 8th grades at Kirby Middle was 25.17%, 22.3%, and 37.84%, respectively, compared to the district averages of 43.52%, 33.1%, and 46.13%, and the state averages of 54.21%, 51.69%, and 56.39%. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools for African American, Hispanic, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Additionally, Kirby Middle has consistently higher dropout rates compared to the district and state averages.

However, Kirby Middle's Gifted and Talented program appears to be a relative strength, with the school ranking in the top half of Texas middle schools for this student subgroup in recent years.
