Summary

Uplift Ascend Prep Ps is a public charter elementary school in Fort Worth, TX, serving 864 students in grades PK-5 within the Uplift Education district, and it serves a predominantly low-income community where about 86-88% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school is notably larger than its neighbors—more than double the size of most nearby schools—but it has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-16% of Texas elementary schools over the past five years. Academic proficiency rates are generally low, with a critical weakness in 5th Grade Science, where only 8.03% of students were proficient in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 29.57%. However, there is a relative bright spot: African American students at Uplift ranked in the 25th percentile statewide, which is higher than the school's overall rank. Interestingly, Souder Elementary and Hommel Elementary in the Everman Independent School District (Isd) are located just 0.2 and 0.89 miles away, respectively, and serve similarly high-poverty populations but consistently outperform Uplift—for example, Souder's 3rd-grade reading proficiency (53.7%) was nearly double Uplift's (31.39%) in 2024-2025.

The school's student-to-teacher ratio of 18.1:1 is higher than most nearby schools, which often have ratios around 14:1, and its per-student spending ($10,840) is lower than higher-performing neighbors like Hommel Elementary ($12,978). This suggests that challenges may stem more from resource allocation than funding levels. Overall, Uplift Ascend Prep Ps shows inconsistent progress and a plateau in state rankings, with no clear upward trend, making it important for parents to consider these factors when evaluating the school.
