Summary

Jack C Binion Elementary is a PK-5 school in Richland Hills, TX, serving 693 students within the Birdville Independent School District (Isd). The school serves a high-poverty community, with 76.9% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and currently holds a 2-star rating (37th percentile) for the 2025-2026 school year, which is below the district average.

One of the most notable stories at Jack C Binion is a dramatic improvement in performance for African American students, who jumped from the 29th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 89th percentile in 2024-2025, before settling at the 56th percentile in 2025-2026. This suggests targeted interventions have been effective. However, the school consistently struggles in Mathematics, with proficiency rates (e.g., 34.78% in 3rd grade) significantly below district and state averages. In contrast, nearby schools in the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District (Isd), such as River Trails Elementary and Hurst Hills Elementary, consistently rank in the 60th-83rd percentile, outperforming Jack C Binion in both reading and math. Even within Birdville ISD, Snow Heights Elementary, which serves a much lower-poverty population, ranks in the 79th percentile, highlighting the strong link between socioeconomic factors and academic outcomes.

Despite these challenges, the school has shown an upward trend from a low point in 2021-2022 (12th percentile) and has a higher per-student spending ($9,123) than some higher-performing neighbors, indicating that funding is not the primary issue. The school also had a period of strength in Spanish-language math for 3rd graders, though that performance has since declined. For parents, Jack C Binion is a school with pockets of success and a clear focus on improvement, but it faces persistent challenges in math and inconsistent support for its most vulnerable students.

Thursday, December 5, 2024

Only gave 1 star because I could not choose 0. We have had a nightmarish experience since the new administration team has taken over. From rude comments, condescending behavior and bullying children. Had to file a police report on the assistant principal, instead of removing her from the school with our children the solution is to move us somewhere else instead. I really truly miss Mr Barltett and his staff, they were truly amazing and easy to work with. I get ignored by Dr Waddell for over 2 months in regards to the other assistant and my concerns with her continued behavior. If this is the way they are going to do things then us parents need to get together and do something about it. Close Quote
