Summary

Judy Hajek Elementary is a PK-5 campus in the Burleson Independent School District (Isd), serving 628 students in Burleson, TX, and consistently earns a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school stands out for its exceptional 5th-grade performance, particularly in mathematics, where 76.34% of students were proficient in the most recent year—29 points higher than the state average and significantly above nearby schools like Crowley Montessori Academy (60%). This pattern of strong 5th-grade math results has been consistent for three years, suggesting a focused instructional approach or an effective teaching team at that grade level. However, the school shows a "Jekyll and Hyde" pattern in math: while 5th grade excels, 4th-grade math proficiency drops to just 42.06%, below both district and state averages, a challenge that has persisted for three consecutive years.

Judy Hajek also demonstrates strong support for special education students, ranking in the 86th percentile statewide for this subgroup—a significant improvement from two years prior. This is a key differentiator from nearby schools, which lack comparable data. The school benefits from the broader Burleson Independent School District (Isd) advantage, as all Burleson ISD schools outperform those in the neighboring Crowley Independent School District (Isd) in key subjects like 5th-grade math and reading. For example, Mound Elementary (75.68%) and Academy At Nola Dunn (74.29%) also posted strong math scores, highlighting the district's overall effectiveness.

Despite its strengths, Judy Hajek has seen a slight downward trend in its overall state ranking, from the 87th percentile in 2020-2021 to the 72nd percentile recently. This may be linked to the 4th-grade math slump or other factors. Interestingly, the school is just 0.59 miles from Jack Taylor Elementary, which has a 2-star rating and a much higher free/reduced lunch rate (73.69% vs. 37.26%), illustrating how economic factors can correlate with academic outcomes even within the same district. Additionally, while the school excels with special education students, it struggles to challenge its highest-achieving students, with gifted and talented students ranking in the 39th percentile. Addressing the 4th-grade math challenge will be key to reversing the slight ranking decline.
