Summary

Aldridge Elementary is a K-5 school in Richardson, TX, serving 462 students as part of the highly-regarded Plano Independent School District (Isd), and it consistently earns a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the top 22% of Texas elementary schools.

Aldridge occupies a unique middle ground among nearby schools. It is outperformed by elite neighbors like Prairie Creek Elementary and Mohawk Elementary in the Richardson Independent School District (Isd), which are 5-star schools ranking in the top 6% of the state. However, within its own district, Aldridge is a top performer, significantly outperforming nearby Plano ISD schools like Sigler Elementary, Jackson Elementary, and Weatherford Elementary. The school serves a relatively affluent community, with only about 22% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, which is lower than the state average but higher than the elite Richardson ISD schools (7-9%).

While Aldridge has a strong historical track record, recent data reveals two key areas of focus. First, math scores have dipped below district averages in the last two years, a shift from prior strong performance. Second, the school shows significant equity gaps: it excels with Multi-racial and Special Education students (ranking in the top 20% of the state), but struggles with students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (ranking in the bottom 10%). This suggests that while the school is solid overall, ensuring all students succeed equally remains a work in progress. Its overall state ranking has slipped slightly from a peak of the 89th percentile to the 78th percentile, a trend worth monitoring.
