Summary:
This analysis examines three public middle schools (Grades 6-8) located in Manvel, Texas (zip code 77578), all part of the Alvin Independent School District (Isd), which is ranked in the top 24% of Texas school districts.
The standout school in this area is Manvel J H, which is the only school to achieve a 4-star rating and holds the highest state rank at the 77th percentile. It also has the lowest student-teacher ratio (14.2:1) and leads in 8th-grade Reading, Science, and Social Studies. Jackie Doucet Caffey J H is the most improved, jumping from the 56th to the 67th percentile in recent years. Rodeo Palms J H, while having the largest enrollment (842 students), has the lowest state ranking and the highest percentage of economically disadvantaged students. All three schools achieve near-perfect proficiency (98-100%) on the Algebra I exam, suggesting only top math students are accelerated, compared to the district average of 65.95%.
A critical weakness across all schools is 6th-grade math proficiency, which ranges from just 5.84% to 11.21%, far below the state average of 38.57%. However, Reading is a relative strength, with all schools consistently outperforming the state average. Dropout rates are excellent, with Manvel J H and Jackie Doucet Caffey J H reporting 0.0%. For parents, Manvel J H offers the strongest overall academic performance and smaller class sizes, while Jackie Doucet Caffey J H shows promising improvement. The district's focus on accelerating high-achievers in math is evident, but the low 6th-grade math scores represent a significant area for improvement across all three schools.
