Summary:
Deer Park School District has one middle school, Deer Park Middle School, serving about 500 students in grades 6 through 8 in a district where over half of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
This school shows notable strengths, particularly outperforming the broader Deer Park School District average in both English and Math, with 7th graders excelling in English Language Arts. However, a significant area for improvement is in Science, where the school's proficiency rate is considerably lower than the district average. Performance trends also show that student scores in Math tend to decline from 6th to 8th grade, which is a pattern the school may want to address.
With a favorable student-teacher ratio and above-average per-student spending, the school has resources that could be directed toward supporting specific subjects and grades. While its state ranking has dipped slightly in the most recent year, it remains a solidly performing school within the state's middle schools, positioned in the 60th percentile.
