Summary:
In zip code 75158, there is one middle school, Scurry-Rosser Middle, serving grades 4 through 8 in the Scurry area with a total enrollment of 381 students.
Scurry-Rosser Middle, part of the Scurry-Rosser Independent School District (Isd), has experienced a notable decline in its state ranking over the past three years, dropping from the 77th percentile (4 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 62nd percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026. The school shows a strong performance in advanced math, with 82.35% of students proficient in Algebra I, dramatically outperforming the state average. However, this strength contrasts with significant weaknesses in 6th-grade math, where only 22.78% of students were proficient, well below the state average of 38.57%. The school maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 12.3 and a 0% dropout rate, with 41.21% of students economically disadvantaged.
A key takeaway is the "6th-grade slump" in math proficiency, which drops sharply from a strong 66.2% in 4th grade to just 22.78% in 6th grade, suggesting a need for targeted intervention during the transition. The school excels at accelerating top math students into Algebra I by 8th grade, but struggles to bring the majority to grade-level proficiency in standard 8th-grade math. Performance is mixed across subjects, with reading outperforming the state in 7th and 8th grades but underperforming in 4th, 5th, and 6th grades. Overall, while the school provides a stable environment, its academic growth has not kept pace with other Texas schools in recent years.
