Summary

Iltexas North Richland Hills Elementary is a public charter school in North Richland Hills, TX, serving 757 students in grades PK-5, with over 76% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and it is part of the International Leadership Of Texas (Iltexas) district.

This school tells a remarkable story of turnaround. After ranking in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools for three years, it jumped to the 46th percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 2-star rating. This rapid improvement is especially notable when compared to nearby schools like Snow Heights Elementary (79th percentile) and David E Smith Elementary (53rd percentile), which have maintained stable, higher rankings. Iltexas is achieving these gains with significantly less funding—spending about $7,199 per student, compared to $10,499 at Snow Heights and $11,056 at Birdville Elementary. A bright spot is 3rd-grade performance, where math proficiency (50.43%) exceeds both the district (34.53%) and state (44.33%) averages, and reading proficiency (50.43%) is nearly identical to the state average.

However, challenges remain. While 3rd-grade math is a strength, 5th-grade math is a persistent weakness, with only 30.51% of students proficient compared to 47.38% statewide. The school also shows mixed results for specific student groups, with strong performance for some but lower outcomes for English Language Learners and Special Education students. Despite these hurdles, Iltexas demonstrates that significant academic gains are possible even with a lean budget, making its recent progress a compelling story of resource efficiency and focused improvement.
