Summary

Miller Elementary in Arlington, TX, is a PK-6 school serving 549 students within the Arlington Independent School District (Isd), and it is currently facing significant academic challenges, with its state ranking dropping to the 7th percentile in 2025-2026 from the 45th percentile a decade ago.

The most pressing concern at Miller Elementary is a severe and widespread deficiency in Mathematics, where proficiency rates across all tested grades (3rd-6th) are alarmingly low—for instance, only 8.7% of 4th graders and 18.75% of 6th graders were proficient in Math in 2025-2026, which is roughly 20-30 percentage points below the district average and 30-40 points below the state average. This is not an isolated issue but a systemic problem affecting all student groups, as the school ranks in the bottom 10th percentile for Female, Male, Hispanic, White, and Low Socio-Economic Status students. While there was a glimmer of hope in 6th-grade Reading, which jumped to 47.62% proficiency in 2024-2025, surpassing the district average, this progress was not sustained, dropping back to 26.58% in 2025-2026, indicating a lack of consistent instructional strategies.

When compared to nearby schools, Miller Elementary is the lowest-performing among its Arlington ISD neighbors, such as Ditto Elementary (72nd percentile), Little Elementary (65th percentile), and Wood Elementary (41st percentile). The starkest contrast is with Corey Fine Arts / Dual Language Academy, located just 2.28 miles away, which ranks in the 89th percentile and had a 5th-grade Reading proficiency rate of 93.33% compared to Miller's 43.28%. Interestingly, Miller's per-student spending ($9,610) is higher than that of these higher-performing peers, suggesting that the school's challenges are not simply a matter of insufficient funding but likely relate to how resources are allocated or the effectiveness of instructional methods. Nearby schools from the Fort Worth Independent School District (Isd), like W M Green Elementary and Sunrise - McMillan Elementary, also struggle with low performance, creating a pocket of high-needs schools in this area.

What people are saying

by a student
Friday, November 30, 2018

They’re awful towards students. The teachers do nothing about bullying and most of them are bullies themselves. They do not care about students whatsoever and they will NOT have any sympathy towards your kid if they’re not white, mentally ill, or not a straight A student. They let the teachers get away with basically abusing the kids and the teachers are rude and disrespectful to not only students and your parents if they confront them. Please do not send your kids here whatsoever. They literally traumatized me and if I could give this school no stars, I would. This school is awful in every way possible, please. If you love your child do not take them here. Close Quote
