Summary:
In zip code 79772, there is one middle school, Crockett Middle, serving grades 6 through 8 in Pecos, Texas, as part of the Pecos-Barstow-Toyah Independent School District (ISD).
Crockett Middle has 621 students and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12:1, which suggests smaller class sizes. The school shows a positive trajectory, improving its state ranking from the 19th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 33rd percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 2-star rating. A standout strength is its Algebra I program, where 94.29% of students were proficient in the most recent year, dramatically outperforming the state average of 54.03%. Additionally, 8th-grade math proficiency (59.34%) also exceeded the state average (47.24%). However, performance is uneven; 7th-grade math proficiency is very low at 8.47%, and reading proficiency across all grades consistently trails the state average by 10 to 18 percentage points.
The school spends a substantial $21,287 per student, yet results are mixed, with core academic challenges in reading and middle-grade math persisting despite this high investment. The dropout rate is very low at 0.2%, and 63.45% of students are economically disadvantaged. While the school has clear pockets of excellence, particularly in advanced math, the overall data indicates that Crockett Middle is a school on an upward trend that still has significant work to do to ensure consistent success across all subjects and grade levels.
