De Zavala Middle

De Zavala Middle serves a working-class community in Pasadena, a blue-collar city on Houston's eastern edge known for its tight-knit neighborhoods and industrial roots. Families here tend to be deeply rooted in the area, and the school reflects that community spirit even as it works to close gaps in academic performance — particularly in English and math. For families in the 77506 zip code looking to stay local, understanding where the school has room to grow can help parents know where to step in with extra support at home.
