Summary:
In zip code 78102, there is one middle school, Moreno J H, serving grades 6 through 8 in Beeville, Texas, as part of the Beeville Independent School District (Isd).
Moreno J H is a 1-star school that ranks in the bottom quarter of all Texas middle schools, consistently placing between the 23rd and 27th percentile over the last three years. The school has 682 students and a student-teacher ratio of 14.8:1. Academic performance is below state averages in every tested subject and grade level, with the most significant weakness in 7th-grade mathematics, where only 3.59% of students are proficient compared to the state average of 29.41%. However, there is a notable bright spot: students in the advanced Algebra I course achieve a 96.15% proficiency rate on the End-of-Course exam, far exceeding the state average of 54.03%. The school also has a low dropout rate of 0.2%.
The data reveals a stark contrast between the school's general math program and its advanced math track, suggesting that while a small group of students excels, the majority struggle with foundational concepts. With over 81% of students economically disadvantaged, the school faces significant challenges, and its stable low ranking over three years indicates persistent systemic issues rather than a temporary decline. For parents, this means that while the school offers a strong advanced math program for select students, the overall academic environment requires substantial improvement, particularly in mathematics and reading across all grade levels.
