Summary

Snow Heights Elementary is a PK-5 school in North Richland Hills, TX, serving 380 students within the Birdville Independent School District (Isd) and earning a 4-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year, ranking in the 79th percentile statewide.

This school stands out as the highest-ranked elementary school in its immediate area, outperforming nearby schools like Holiday Heights Elementary (47th percentile) and Watauga Elementary (52nd percentile). Snow Heights has a consistent history of high performance, never dropping below the 64th percentile in the last decade. A major strength is 5th Grade Science, where 52.24% of students were proficient in 2024-2025, compared to the district average of 32.38% and the state average of 29.57%. This is a stark contrast to schools like Alliene Mullendore Elementary (13.73%) and O H Stowe Elementary (14.15%), which struggled significantly in this subject. Reading is also a clear strength, with proficiency rates across all tested grades well above state averages. The school also shows powerful support for Special Education students, ranking in the 92nd percentile for this group in 2025-2026, a dramatic improvement from the 52nd percentile two years prior.

Snow Heights serves a relatively low-poverty population, with only 38.95% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch in 2024-2025, compared to much higher rates at nearby schools like Cheney Hills Elementary (83.33%) and Jack C Binion Elementary (76.91%). The school also spends more per student ($10,499) than many neighbors, including Watauga ($8,696) and Holiday Heights ($9,703). While the school excels overall, there is a significant performance gap between student subgroups, with White students ranking in the 80th percentile and Hispanic students in the 42nd percentile. Additionally, performance with Gifted and Talented students is volatile, dropping from the 97th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 63rd percentile in 2025-2026, a metric worth monitoring.
