Summary

Walsh Elementary is a high-performing K-5 school in Fort Worth, TX, serving 550 students as part of the top-ranked Aledo Independent School District (Isd), which sits in the 99th percentile statewide.

This school is a reading powerhouse, with proficiency rates in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades far exceeding both district and state averages—for example, 3rd-grade reading hits 84.62% compared to the state's 51.08%. However, there's a notable "math gap" in upper grades: while 3rd-grade math is strong at 80.43%, scores drop to around 67% in 4th and 5th grades, actually falling below the district average. This pattern is unique among top Aledo peers like Stuard Elementary and Vandagriff Elementary, which maintain strong math scores across all grades. Walsh also stands out for its exceptional support of special education students (98th percentile statewide) and a remarkable turnaround for low-income students, who now rank in the 100th percentile—a dramatic jump from the 57th percentile just two years ago.

Interestingly, the school's success isn't tied to higher spending; its per-student funding is similar to other Aledo schools and lower than some lower-performing nearby options like Blue Haze Elementary in White Settlement Independent School District (Isd). This suggests effective resource use and strong instruction drive results. For parents, Walsh offers a stellar reading foundation and targeted support for diverse learners, but you may want to ask about math enrichment in upper grades to ensure balanced growth.
