Summary

Carrollton Elementary is a PK-5 public school in Carrollton, TX, serving 505 students within the Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District (Isd), where 91% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, placing it in a high-poverty bracket.

Despite this challenge, the school has shown resilience, climbing from the 21st percentile in 2020-2021 to a stable 56th percentile ranking for the 2025-2026 school year. Its most striking strength is upper-grade mathematics: 4th graders scored 60% proficient and 5th graders 62% proficient in the most recent testing year, both well above district and state averages. This "math magnet" effect in upper grades is a consistent pattern over the last four years. The school also excels in serving its low-income students, ranking in the 75th percentile statewide for effectiveness with Low SES students—a 4-star rating that outpaces its overall school rank. In contrast, Central Elementary (88% poverty, 18th percentile) and Blanton Elementary (77% poverty, 47th percentile) show how Carrollton Elementary achieves notably higher academic outcomes than its poverty level alone would predict.

However, the school faces clear weaknesses. Third-grade math is a persistent struggle, often falling 10-20 points below state averages, and 5th-grade science is a critical gap, with only 5.7% proficient in 2024-2025 compared to 30% statewide. The bilingual program shows promise, as Spanish Reading scores often outperform district and state averages, while English Reading lags. Across the street, Stem Academy At Memorial Elementary (21% poverty, 92nd percentile) highlights the profound impact of socioeconomic factors, making Carrollton Elementary’s achievements in math and with low-income students all the more impressive.
