Summary

Boswell High School in Fort Worth, TX, is a large public school serving 2,445 students in grades 9-12 within the Eagle Mt-Saginaw Independent School District (Isd), where about 41% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school stands out as the top performer in its district, significantly outperforming nearby Saginaw High School and Chisholm Trail High School in overall state rankings, and it boasts an impressive graduation rate of 98%—higher than even the highly-ranked V R Eaton High School.

Boswell excels in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates above both district and state averages, and it has a strong history of supporting "At Risk" students, once ranking in the 95th percentile for this group. However, the school faces a notable challenge with Algebra I, where only 34.3% of students are proficient compared to 54% statewide, and its overall state ranking has declined from the 81st percentile in 2018-2019 to the 58th percentile in 2025-2026. This contrasts with Iltexas Keller Saginaw High School, which has improved its ranking over the same period, and Marine Creek Collegiate High School, a small magnet school that achieves high results with fewer resources.

For parents, Boswell offers a solid, above-average education with a strong focus on graduating students and teaching English and History, but the persistent weakness in Algebra I and the downward trend in rankings are worth investigating. The school’s performance varies across student groups, with particular strengths for English Language Learners and challenges for others, suggesting that not all students may experience the same level of support. Overall, Boswell is a good choice within its district, but families should consider these specific academic areas when making their decision.
