Summary

Kent Elementary is a high-performing public school in Carrollton, TX, serving 416 students in grades PK-5 within the Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District (Isd). This school has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for five consecutive years, consistently ranking in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools. What makes Kent Elementary truly stand out is its ability to achieve exceptional academic results despite nearly half of its students (46%) qualifying for free or reduced lunch, a demographic factor that often correlates with lower performance at other schools.

Kent Elementary consistently outperforms both its district and the state by wide margins in Reading and Math across all grade levels. For example, 73-77% of Kent students were proficient in these subjects, compared to district averages of 42-62% and state averages of 44-58%. This level of achievement is comparable to nearby schools like McCoy Elementary and Homestead Elementary, which serve far fewer economically disadvantaged students (25% and 24% free/reduced lunch, respectively). The school also ranks in the 96th percentile statewide for its performance with low socioeconomic status students, a stark contrast to nearby schools like Davis Elementary (80% free/reduced lunch, 42nd percentile overall) and Good Elementary (87% free/reduced lunch, 65th percentile overall).

Kent Elementary also excels at supporting students with additional needs, ranking in the 92nd percentile for both Special Education and English Language Learners. An interesting comparison is with Harmony School Of Innovation - Carrollton, a charter school located just 0.95 miles away on the same street. While Kent ranks in the 95th percentile, Harmony ranks in the 34th percentile, highlighting how school choice within a small area can lead to dramatically different outcomes. One area for potential focus is 5th-grade Science, where proficiency dropped to 33% in 2024-2025 from 67% in 2022-2023, though this remains above the district average. Overall, Kent Elementary's consistent excellence over five years makes it a reliable choice for families seeking a high-quality education in Carrollton.
