Smith Middle

Smith Middle sits in Beaumont's historically rooted east side, where the community has deep ties and a strong sense of place — but families considering this school should know that academic performance ranks among the most challenging in Texas, with particular struggles in English and Science. It may be a fit for families actively engaged in supplementing their child's education at home or through outside programs, and who want to be closely involved in their school community. Beaumont itself has a resilient, working-class character with easy access to Southeast Texas culture, but parents here will likely want to work closely with teachers to make sure their middle schooler stays on track.
