Summary

Uplift Hampton Prep Ps is a public charter elementary school in Dallas, TX, serving 712 students in grades PK-5, with about 89% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and it is part of the Uplift Education district.

This school is on a clear upward trajectory, climbing from the 16th percentile statewide five years ago to the 33rd percentile today, earning a 2-star rating. It stands out as the top performer within its charter network, outperforming nearby peers like Uplift Wisdom Prep Ps (8th percentile) and Uplift Gradus Prep Ps (29th percentile). However, it still lags behind top traditional public schools in the area, such as Umphrey Lee Elementary and Martin Weiss Elementary, which rank in the 72nd-75th percentile and show much stronger, more consistent test scores across all grades. For example, Martin Weiss Elementary’s 5th-grade Reading proficiency (80%) is nearly 24 points higher than Hampton’s (56.48%).

While the school shows strong performance for specific student groups, its overall effectiveness is marked by volatility. A major red flag is the dramatic swing in Special Education performance, which dropped from the 81st percentile to the 3rd percentile in just one year. Additionally, Science scores are alarmingly low, with only 0.92% of 5th graders proficient in 2024-2025. The school also shows inconsistent grade-level performance, with strong results in 3rd-grade Math (45.63%) and 5th-grade Reading (56.48%) but weak scores in 4th-grade Reading (31.48%) and 5th-grade Math (27.52%). With a student-teacher ratio of 19:1 and spending around $10,000 per student—less than nearby Dallas Independent School District (Isd) schools—Uplift Hampton is a school that is improving but still has critical areas, especially in Science and Special Education, that need urgent attention to close achievement gaps for its most vulnerable students.
