Summary

E Ray Elementary in Fort Worth, TX, serves 347 students in 1st through 5th grade and is part of the Everman Independent School District (Isd), with nearly 98% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. Once a solid 3-star school ranking in the 58th percentile statewide before the pandemic, E Ray has experienced a dramatic and accelerating decline, dropping to the 6th percentile and a 0-star rating in the most recent data. This steep downturn is the school's most critical feature, making it the lowest-performing school in its immediate area, a stark contrast to its historical performance.

Academic proficiency at E Ray is consistently the lowest among nearby schools. For example, 4th-grade math proficiency is just 10.14%, compared to district peers like Bishop Elementary (40.68%) and Hommel Elementary (44.23%), while 4th-grade reading proficiency is 25%, roughly half that of Bishop (50%) and Hommel (45.1%). Even Sycamore Elementary, the lowest-performing nearby school from another district, ranks higher at the 13th percentile. The challenges are systemic, affecting all student subgroups, with every group ranking in the bottom 10% of the state. This is particularly striking because Bishop and Hommel serve similar demographics and have comparable funding, yet have maintained stable 2-star ratings, suggesting school-specific issues like leadership or teacher turnover at E Ray.

Despite the overall crisis, there is a glimmer of hope in 5th-grade math, where E Ray's proficiency rate of 35.94% actually exceeded the district average (32.65%) and was competitive with peers like Bishop (34.85%) and Hommel (41.07%). This success may point to an effective teacher or intervention that could serve as a model for recovery. However, science remains a universal weak point across the area, with E Ray's 5th-grade science score of 8.11% reflecting a broader regional challenge. For parents, E Ray Elementary is a school in urgent need of targeted support, but the relative strength in 5th-grade math offers a potential blueprint for improvement.
