Summary

Little Elementary is a public elementary school located in Arlington, Texas, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 736 students. It is part of the Arlington Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 660 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Little Elementary has shown a mixed academic performance, with strengths in 5th-grade science proficiency but struggles in reading and math proficiency, particularly among certain student subgroups. In 2024-2025, the school's reading proficiency rates for 3rd-6th grades ranged from 50.6% to 60.82%, outperforming the Arlington ISD but underperforming the state average. Similarly, its math proficiency rates for the same grades ranged from 31.48% to 48.19%, again outperforming the Arlington ISD but falling short of the state average. However, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 41.24% in 2024-2025 was significantly higher than the Arlington ISD (21.18%) and state (29.57%) averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Corey Fine Arts / Dual Language Academy and Ditto Elementary consistently outperform Little Elementary in both reading and math proficiency rates, ranking in the top 15% and top 20% of Texas elementary schools, respectively. In contrast, schools like Dunn Elementary, Key Elementary, and Miller Elementary, all within a 2-mile radius of Little Elementary, perform significantly worse than Little Elementary across various academic metrics.
