Summary

Jack Taylor Elementary is a PK-5 school in Burleson, TX, serving 536 students as part of the Burleson Independent School District (Isd). The school serves a high-needs population, with over 73% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, a rate significantly higher than most district peers. While the district ranks in the 70th percentile statewide, Jack Taylor has historically performed below the district average, currently holding a 2-star rating (43rd percentile).

One of the most interesting findings is the school's relative strength in early literacy compared to math. In 3rd Grade Reading, the school's proficiency rate (53.45%) actually exceeds both the district (52.47%) and state (51.08%) averages. However, this strength does not carry over to upper grades, where only 36.26% of 5th graders were proficient in Math, compared to the district average of 61.13%. The school also shows a stark contrast with its closest neighbor, Judy Hajek Elementary, located just 0.59 miles away. Judy Hajek has a free/reduced lunch rate of 37.26% (half of Jack Taylor's) and ranks in the 72nd percentile (4 stars), highlighting how school performance in Burleson is heavily correlated with the socioeconomic makeup of the immediate attendance zone.

Despite lower performance, Jack Taylor spends more per student ($10,083) than many higher-performing district peers like Academy At Nola Dunn ($8,131) and Richard Bransom Elementary ($9,138). The school has shown recent improvement in serving its English Language Learners, moving from the 7th percentile to the 41st percentile over two years. However, its highest-performing subgroups, including White students (23rd percentile) and Gifted & Talented students (21st percentile), are struggling, suggesting the school may need to focus more on challenging its top learners. The most recent data shows a slight uptick to the 43rd percentile from a low of 27th in 2023-2024, indicating recent interventions may be starting to stabilize performance.
