Summary:
Zip code 77991, located in Vanderbilt, Texas, is home to a single middle school, Industrial J H, which serves grades 6 through 8 with a total enrollment of 254 students.
Industrial J H is a consistently high-performing school, part of the top-rated Industrial Independent School District (Isd), which holds a 5-star rating and ranks in the 92nd percentile statewide. The school itself has ranked in the top 11% of Texas middle schools for three consecutive years, peaking at the 96th percentile in 2023-2024. It boasts a zero percent dropout rate, a low student-teacher ratio of 13.3, and per-student spending of over $10,000. A standout strength is its advanced math program, with 100% of Algebra I test-takers scoring proficient—nearly double the state average. Additionally, 8th-grade social studies proficiency is remarkably high at 58.02%, almost double the state average of 31.69%.
Despite these strengths, the school shows a notable "7th-grade math slump," with only 31.82% of 7th graders proficient in math in the most recent year, a sharp drop from 6th-grade (58.89%) and 8th-grade (84.21%) scores. This suggests a potential curriculum challenge at that grade level. While the school's state ranking has slightly declined from the 96th to the 89th percentile over three years, it remains an excellent choice for families, particularly those seeking strong advanced math and social studies programs in a well-resourced, small-school environment.
