Summary

Cedar Hill Collegiate Prep is a public elementary school in Cedar Hill, TX, serving 520 students in grades PK-5 and stands out as a high-performing school within the Cedar Hill Independent School District (Isd), which overall ranks in the bottom 28% of Texas districts.

This school consistently achieves top-tier results, ranking in the 85th percentile of all Texas elementary schools—a remarkable feat given that nearly 46% of its students are economically disadvantaged. In contrast, other elementary schools in the same district, such as High Pointe Elementary, Waterford Oaks Elementary, and Plummer Elementary, rank in the bottom 20% of the state. For example, 5th grade reading proficiency at Cedar Hill Collegiate Prep is 82.61%, compared to just 29.31% at High Pointe and 38.57% at Waterford Oaks. The school also excels in math, with 77.17% of 5th graders proficient versus 22.41% at High Pointe. Its success is especially notable when compared to Dolores McClatchey Elementary in the Midlothian Independent School District (Isd), which has a similar ranking but serves a much more affluent population with only 16% economically disadvantaged students.

Cedar Hill Collegiate Prep has earned a 4-star rating from Schooldigger for nearly a decade, showing strong recovery after a pandemic-era dip. The school is particularly effective for students who need the most support, ranking in the 94th percentile for serving low socioeconomic status students. However, one area for growth is its Gifted and Talented program, which ranks in the 55th percentile, suggesting the school may focus more on bringing struggling students up to grade level than on accelerating its highest achievers. Overall, this school proves that high achievement is possible within its district, likely due to school-specific factors like strong leadership and dedicated teaching.
