Genesis Campus Pre-K Thru 5

Genesis Campus Pre-K Thru 5 is a public charter elementary school in Dallas, Texas, serving 430 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the A W Brown Leadership Academy District, which is ranked 949 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Genesis Campus has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (88.6%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like Quest Campus Pre-K Thru 8 and KIPP Destiny Elementary. However, the school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with a statewide rank between 3,360 and 4,509 out of 4,675 schools over the past 5 years. Its performance on STAAR assessments is also significantly below the state and Dallas Independent School District averages across all grade levels and subjects, particularly for its African American, special education, and economically disadvantaged students.

Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of around $9,000-$10,000, which is higher than the state average but lower than some nearby schools, Genesis Campus has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance or statewide ranking over the past 5 years. This suggests deeper systemic challenges that need to be addressed. The proximity and similar student populations of Genesis Campus and other nearby schools, such as Quest Campus Pre-K Thru 8 and KIPP Destiny Elementary, may present opportunities for collaboration, resource sharing, and the implementation of best practices to improve overall academic outcomes for the students in this area.
