Arlington Independent School District (Isd)

The Arlington Independent School District (ISD) operates a diverse set of 75 schools, including 54 elementary schools, 10 middle schools, and 11 high schools, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district is located in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area, providing educational opportunities to a wide range of communities.

Several schools in the Arlington ISD stand out for their exceptional performance. Arlington Collegiate High School and Arlington College And Career High School are among the top-ranked high schools in the state, with 5-star ratings and over 80% of students proficient or better on STAAR EOC exams. At the elementary level, Corey Fine Arts / Dual Language Academy and Jones Fine Arts / Dual Language Academy also excel, with 3-4 star ratings and high proficiency rates on STAAR reading and math assessments. Additionally, Moore Elementary and Ditto Elementary are among the top-performing elementary schools in the district.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district. While some schools, such as Martin High School and Ousley J H, have proficiency rates well above the district and state averages, others, like Venture Alter High School and Carter J H, struggle with proficiency rates below 30% in many subjects. These performance gaps suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to ensure equitable access to high-quality education across the Arlington ISD.
