History
In 2009, the school district was rated "academically acceptable" by the Texas Education Agency.

On April 17, 2013, an explosion at the West Fertilizer Plant leveled several blocks of West and caused fires to spread across several blocks, including West Middle School. All five schools were shut down for the remaining week.
