Summary:
In zip code 77871, there is one middle school, Normangee Middle, serving grades 6 through 8 with 161 students in the Normangee Independent School District (Isd), a rural area where just over half of students are economically disadvantaged.
Normangee Middle shows a mix of standout strengths and notable challenges. The school’s most impressive achievement is in advanced math: 100% of students taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam were proficient in 2025-2026, far exceeding the state average of 54%. The school also excels in 8th grade Science (67% proficient vs. 46% state) and Social Studies (44% vs. 30% state). However, a significant "8th grade slump" appears in 2025-2026, where 8th graders scored well below state averages in Reading (44% vs. 59%) and Math (33% vs. 47%), while 6th and 7th graders outperformed the state in those subjects. This volatility is likely due to the small enrollment, where a single cohort can dramatically shift scores. The school maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 11.6, a 0% dropout rate, and has steadily improved its state ranking from the 62nd to the 67th percentile over three years.
For parents, Normangee Middle offers small class sizes and a strong advanced math program, but the inconsistent performance in 8th grade core subjects warrants attention. The school spends $10,024 per student—below the national average—yet achieves a 0% dropout rate and rising rankings, suggesting efficient resource use. The Normangee Independent School District (Isd) itself ranks in the 74th percentile statewide (251 out of 951 districts), earning a 4-star rating. Overall, this is a school with clear academic peaks in science and advanced math, but families should monitor how the school supports 8th graders in reading and math to ensure consistent progress through all middle school grades.
