Summary

Wood Elementary is a mid-sized PK-6 public school in the Arlington Independent School District (Isd), serving 732 students in south Arlington, and it has historically been a solid, middle-of-the-pack school. However, the most recent data shows a significant drop in overall state ranking to the 41st percentile, a much steeper decline than nearby schools like Little Elementary (65th percentile) and Moore Elementary (66th percentile), which maintained their performance. This recent downturn is broad-based, affecting almost all subjects and grade levels, and is disproportionately impacting male students, who now rank in the 35th percentile compared to female students at the 47th percentile.

Despite this overall decline, Wood Elementary has notable strengths. It is a top-tier performer for its Gifted and Talented (GT) students, ranking in the 83rd percentile statewide, and its 5th-grade Science scores have been a consistent bright spot, with proficiency rates nearly double the district average. The school also shows strong performance in 6th-grade math, which is higher than the state average and a reversal of typical trends. However, the school is located less than a mile from Corey Fine Arts / Dual Language Academy, a magnet school that consistently ranks in the top 10-15% of Texas elementary schools and has a much lower rate of economically disadvantaged students, which may be drawing some higher-performing students away from Wood.

Wood Elementary spends $9,009 per student and has a 15.1:1 student-teacher ratio, which is moderate compared to nearby higher-poverty schools like Short Elementary and Foster Elementary, which spend significantly more per student and have smaller class sizes. The school is at a critical juncture, needing to understand the root cause of its recent performance drop and find ways to replicate its success with GT students across the broader student body. Its future success may depend on addressing these challenges while leveraging its strong science curriculum and advanced academic programming.
