Summary:
Zip code 77619, serving the Groves, Texas area, is home to a single middle school, Groves Middle, which educates 647 students in grades 6 through 8 as part of the highly-rated Port Neches-Groves Independent School District (Isd).
Groves Middle has maintained a consistent 3-star state rating over the past three years, with its percentile rank gradually improving from the 58th to the 62nd percentile. The school boasts a zero percent dropout rate and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.8:1. Its most exceptional feature is a standout Algebra I program; in the 2025-2026 school year, 100% of 8th graders taking the exam were proficient, far exceeding both the district (48.55%) and state (54.03%) averages. However, performance in other subjects is mixed. While reading scores are at or above state averages across all grades, 7th-grade math is a notable weakness, with only 25.16% of students proficient compared to the state's 29.41%. Similarly, 8th-grade social studies scores (24.88%) lag behind the state average (31.69%).
For parents, Groves Middle offers a stable, well-resourced environment with a strong district backing and a clear strength in accelerating top math students. The school's spending of $9,642 per student and low dropout rate are positive indicators. The primary areas of concern are the significant gap in 7th-grade math achievement and below-average social studies scores, which suggest that while the school excels with its advanced learners, it may need to focus more resources on supporting students in these specific subjects to ensure balanced academic growth for all.
