Coppell Middle East, Coppell TX - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Coppell Middle East

Coppell Middle East serves students in grades 6 through 8 in a Dallas County community. The school enrolls roughly a thousand students, with Asian students making up a plurality of the population, followed by white students, Hispanic students, and smaller numbers of Black students and others. Free-or-reduced-price lunch data was not available; special education and English learner enrollment figures were also not reported.

On state assessment results from spring 2025, the school shows mixed but generally strong performance. In English language arts, proficiency is solid across all three grade levels, with the sixth grade showing the highest attainment. In mathematics, sixth-grade proficiency is below the school's strength in upper grades, while seventh and eighth grades perform very well. Science proficiency in eighth grade is comparatively solid, though social studies proficiency in eighth grade falls below the school's performance in other subjects.

The pattern suggests that students entering sixth grade arrive with uneven math foundation. Once into seventh grade, math proficiency climbs sharply and sustains at that level through eighth grade. English language arts remains consistently strong across the span. In science and social studies, which are tested only in eighth grade, performance is good but noticeably lower than in ELA and math, with social studies showing the widest gap. A parent or school leader may want to explore further what instructional approaches support the jump in seventh-grade math and whether additional support in eighth-grade social studies might help close that gap.

Among Dallas County school districts, Coppell Middle East's overall proficiency index places it in the top quartile. This is a strength.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
