Summary

Seminary Hills Park Elementary in Fort Worth, TX, is a PK-5 school in the Fort Worth Independent School District (Isd) serving 378 students in a high-poverty area, where over 97% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. This school has historically ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Texas elementary schools, but recent data shows a promising upward trend, climbing to the 22nd percentile—its highest rank in several years. While this improvement is encouraging, the school still faces significant challenges compared to state averages and nearby schools like Westcliff Elementary (61st percentile) and Alice D Contreras (69th percentile), which serves a similarly high-poverty population but achieves much stronger results.

One of the school's standout features is its investment in smaller class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 12.3:1—the lowest among all nearby schools. This is supported by higher per-student spending of $14,160, which is notably more than peers like Richard J Wilson Elementary ($10,589) and Westcliff Elementary ($10,308). A bright spot is 5th-grade math, where proficiency reached 48% in 2025-2026, surpassing both the district average (40.23%) and the state average (47.38%). Additionally, the school's bilingual program shows promise, with 3rd-grade Spanish-language reading scores outperforming district and state averages, suggesting effective foundational literacy support in students' native language.

However, the school has notable weaknesses, particularly in 5th-grade science, where only 5.26% of students were proficient in 2024-2025 compared to 29.57% statewide. Performance for Special Education students has been inconsistent, ranging from a high of the 76th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 36th percentile in 2025-2026, indicating that while the school has the capacity to support these students, programs may need more stability. Overall, Seminary Hills Park Elementary is a school on the rise, with targeted strengths in math and bilingual education, but it still has significant gaps to close, especially in science and reading, to match the performance of its higher-achieving neighbors like Alice D Contreras.
