Cunningham Middle

Cunningham Middle serves 897 students in grades 7-8 in Houston's large suburban area along Wallisville Road. With 65 full-time teachers, the school maintains a manageable 13.8:1 student-teacher ratio that allows for more individualized attention during these crucial middle school years. The school earns a 6.0 out of 10 rating from MySchoolScout and ranks in the 61st percentile statewide, placing it at #3332 among Texas's 8598 schools.

This middle-of-the-road performance indicates solid potential as the school works to support student development during the transitional middle grade years. Cunningham Middle draws from a working-class suburban community where families have a median household income of $70,736 and median home values around $192,000. The surrounding 77049 ZIP code is home to over 41,000 residents, with about 16% of families facing economic challenges.

While only 13% of area adults hold bachelor's degrees, this reflects the diverse, hardworking character of the community rather than a lack of educational aspiration. The school's location in this established suburban area of Houston provides students with a stable learning environment while maintaining connections to the broader opportunities available in the nation's fourth-largest city.
