Summary

Iltexas Garland Elementary in Garland, TX, is a K-5 charter school serving 941 students in a predominantly low-income area, where over 72% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school is much larger than nearby traditional public schools, which average around 500 students, but it currently ranks in the 39th percentile statewide with a 2-star rating, below the state average in most core subjects. While it has shown some improvement from a low point in 2022-2023, it still lags behind many neighbors, such as Beaver Technology Center (92nd percentile) and Hickman Elementary (83rd percentile), both in the Garland Independent School District (Isd).

A key strength is the school's exceptional performance with African American students, who ranked in the 84th percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 4-star rating. However, this success is not uniform: the school struggles significantly with Hispanic students (23rd percentile), White students (35th percentile), and especially with Special Education and English Language Learners (both at the 9th percentile). This uneven performance creates a "two schools" dynamic, where the school excels for one group but underperforms for others. Interestingly, the school's bilingual program shows promise, as 5th graders taking Spanish-language STAAR tests scored far above district and state averages in reading (66.67% proficient) and math (40% proficient), despite overall low ELL outcomes.

Compared to its closest neighbor, Hickman Elementary (just 0.91 miles away), which serves a similar high-poverty population, Iltexas Garland falls short in every grade-level math and reading test. For example, 3rd-grade reading proficiency is 42.31% at Iltexas versus 68.66% at Hickman. The school also spends significantly less per student ($7,455) than nearby schools like Yale Elementary ($11,535) in the Richardson Independent School District (Isd), though it maintains a reasonable student-teacher ratio of 15.7:1. A persistent weakness is science, where only 17.11% of 5th graders were proficient in 2024-2025, well below the state average of 29.57%.
