Summary:
The San Elizario Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one middle school, Ann M Garcia-Enriquez Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. This school faces several challenges, including a highly homogeneous student population, consistently low academic performance, high poverty levels, and a low overall school ranking and rating.
Ann M Garcia-Enriquez Middle has a student population that is 99.19% Hispanic, indicating a need for culturally responsive teaching practices and resources to support this demographic. The school's STAAR test scores have been consistently below the state averages across multiple years and subjects, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student learning outcomes. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (91.53%) reflects the low-income community the school serves, which may present additional challenges and require specialized resources and programs.
Despite these challenges, the data analysis reveals that Ann M Garcia-Enriquez Middle is one of the lower-performing middle schools in the state, ranking 2058 out of 2361 Texas middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year and receiving a 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. These findings highlight the need for the San Elizario Independent School District (Isd) to develop a comprehensive approach to address the unique needs of the school and its community, including targeted interventions, resource allocation, and strategies to enhance the school's educational outcomes.
