School Overview

Bussey Middle sits in Garland, a sprawling northeastern Dallas suburb with a tight-knit, working-class character and a genuinely diverse community that reflects the broader DFW region. The school's math scores show a bit more strength relative to its overall standing, but families considering Bussey should know they'd be entering a school that serves a challenging demographic mix — and the numbers reflect that reality. Families looking for a more affordable entry point into the Dallas metro, who are willing to get involved and advocate closely for their child's academic experience, may find Garland's community spirit worth the trade-offs.
