Summary

Wilson Elementary in Coppell, TX, is a public school serving 476 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the highly-regarded Coppell Independent School District (Isd). The school has shown impressive improvement, climbing from the 69th percentile to the top 7% of Texas elementary schools over the past four years, all while serving a more economically diverse student body than many nearby schools—about 25% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, compared to just 5.6% at the nearby Lakeside Elementary.

Wilson Elementary stands out for its exceptional support of special education students, who now rank in the 96th percentile statewide—a dramatic leap from just two years ago. The school also excels with multi-racial students, ranking in the 91st percentile, and has made significant strides in closing the achievement gap for students from low-income backgrounds, moving from the bottom 16th percentile to the 60th percentile in just one year. A low student-to-teacher ratio of 11:1, which is lower than peers like Austin Elementary (13.8:1) and Lakeside Elementary (13.7:1), likely helps the school provide the targeted support driving these improvements.

Despite these strengths, Wilson Elementary faces a clear challenge in mathematics, with 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade math scores all lagging behind the district average. For example, 5th-grade math scores were 5 percentage points below the district, and 5th-grade science scores (29.27%) were well below both the district average and Lakeside Elementary's 60%. The school's Spanish-language program shows mixed results, with strong 4th-grade reading scores but lower math scores. Overall, Wilson Elementary is a school on a strong upward trajectory, achieving notable success with diverse student groups while working to address specific academic gaps.

Open Quote I am a grandparent of several children that have been enrolled at Wilson Elementary School in the CISD. My first grandchild excelled at Wilson and his middle school then failed miserably for his first year at a Jesuit High School. My second grandchild, now an 8th grader in parochial school will do well in spite of the quality of education he receives. My youngest grandchild is having problems at Wilson. His school special education department has diagnosed him as dyslexic. I suggest you read
dr. Hilde Mosse's Complete Handbook of Reading Disorders. Dyslexia can result in poor initial reading instruction in the primary grades, something I believe the school should carefully examine. While I appreciate the intent of the STAAR program, beginning to test in third grade is not sufficient in tracking individual school performance. You need to carefully examine your primary reading program and switch to a multi sensory program that includes emphasis on teaching the code of the language (including phonics. I suggest looking carefully at how much and what you teach at the school. I have visited the school several times and believe you could improve the program by more carefully managing instruction, including the amount of time devoted to reading and language arts, particularly in the primary grades. Parents should not have to hire tutors to provide remediation services to children who have not been able to participate in proven programs in the early grades. I suggest you carefully review the research and programs that have been proven to create high academic achievement. The culture of Wilson is very nice and teachers seem to care. However, how do you explain lost in school ranking of 194 positions in one year. Historically Wilson was 58th ranked in Texas in 2004, but ranked 856th in 2021. I understand that there are other variables that could influence the slide in ranking. However, if I were the administrator I would begin to look at changing my instruction program. If you are interested I would be glad to provide you with more suggestions gratis! Close Quote
