TRAVIS 6TH GRADE CAMPUS

TRAVIS 6TH GRADE CAMPUS is a Title I public middle school that is part of the AMARILLO ISD school district, located in AMARILLO, TX with about 346 students. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 22 teachers, TRAVIS 6TH GRADE CAMPUS has a student/teacher ratio of about 15:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

TRAVIS 6TH GRADE CAMPUS is a specialized intermediate school located in Amarillo, Texas, serving exclusively sixth-grade students within the Amarillo Independent School District. By focusing entirely on this single grade level, the campus is designed to act as a bridge between elementary school and the more complex environment of middle school. This transitional approach allows the faculty to create a tailored educational experience that supports the specific academic and social developmental needs of students during their final year before moving into the junior high setting.

The campus follows the standard Amarillo ISD curriculum while fostering a collaborative school culture intended to build confidence and community among students entering early adolescence. Because the school is dedicated solely to sixth graders, it provides a unique atmosphere where all students are at the same developmental stage, allowing teachers to focus their resources on preparing the cohort for the transition to seventh-grade life. Located on NE 24th Street, the school serves as a key component of the district's strategy to provide a supportive, grade-specific environment that emphasizes academic growth and successful navigation of the middle school experience.
