Forestridge Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Richardson ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in STAAR Reading ranged from 24.24% to 43.33% at Forestridge, compared to 54.96% to 56.03% for Richardson ISD and 52.02% to 57.83% for Texas. Forestridge Elementary's statewide ranking has also declined over the years, from being ranked 1707 out of 4359 Texas elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 4237 out of 4651 in 2024-2025.

Forestridge Elementary's academic performance is significantly lower than that of nearby schools within the Richardson ISD, such as Springridge Elementary and Jess Harben Elementary, which consistently outperform Forestridge on STAAR tests. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 85.38% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. While Forestridge Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, this has not translated into improved academic outcomes, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by the school community.
