Summary

Alice D Contreras is a PK-5 elementary school in Fort Worth, TX, serving 442 students within the Fort Worth Independent School District (Isd). This school stands out as a remarkable success story, having climbed from the 20th percentile statewide in 2019 to the 69th percentile in 2026—a 49-point jump in just seven years. It is a true "bright spot" in the district, far outperforming the district's average ranking and serving as a model for how a school can achieve strong results despite significant challenges.

The most impressive aspect of Alice D Contreras is its exceptional effectiveness with students from low-income backgrounds. In 2026, the school ranked in the 88th percentile statewide for its work with low socio-economic status students, placing it in the top 12% of all Texas schools. This is dramatically higher than nearby schools with similar poverty levels, such as Westcreek Elementary (10th percentile) and Hubbard Elementary (22nd percentile). The school also excels with its Hispanic and English Language Learner students, ranking in the 80th and 76th percentiles respectively. This consistent, broad-based strength across all core subjects—reading and math for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades—is rare for a school with such a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

While Alice D Contreras cannot match the raw test scores of the nearby Alice Carlson Applied Learning Center (93rd percentile), its performance relative to its student population is arguably more impressive. Carlson serves a much more affluent community, while Contreras is achieving strong results with a student body facing significant economic challenges. This highlights the exceptional "value-add" Contreras provides. The school is also efficient with its resources, spending $10,193 per student—less than many lower-performing peers like Seminary Hills Park Elementary ($14,160). A potential area for continued focus includes 5th Grade Science scores, which remain below the state average, and some inconsistency in Spanish-language assessments.
