Summary:
There are four middle schools serving grades 6-8 in zip code 77373 (Spring, TX), all part of the Spring Independent School District (Isd), which serves a predominantly low-income population with an average free/reduced lunch rate of 76.66%.
Springwoods Village Middle is the standout performer, earning a 2-star rating and ranking in the 49th percentile—the only school in the zip code to reach the top half of Texas middle schools. It leads in nearly every academic metric, including 29.7% math proficiency and 54.4% reading proficiency, and has the lowest free/reduced lunch rate at 62.71%. In contrast, Rickey C Bailey Middle is the lowest-performing school, ranking in the 5th percentile with a 0-star rating and the highest student-to-teacher ratio of 19.6:1. Dueitt Middle faces a critical dropout problem at 3.9%, the highest in the area, while Twin Creeks Middle is a consistent middle performer with a 1-star rating and 17th percentile rank.
A striking finding is the "Algebra I Anomaly": all four schools dramatically outperform the state average in Algebra I proficiency (e.g., Springwoods Village at 94% vs. state 54%), despite scoring well below state averages in standard math. This suggests effective acceleration for top students but widespread struggles for the majority. Additionally, student-to-teacher ratio does not predict performance—Springwoods Village has the highest ratio (20.1:1) yet performs best, while Dueitt has the lowest ratio (15.0:1) but the highest dropout rate, indicating that teacher quality and demographics are more impactful than class size alone.
