Summary

Evers Park Elementary in Denton, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 732 students in grades PK through 5, and it is part of the Denton Independent School District (Isd).

Evers Park has seen a sharp decline in recent years, dropping to the 20th percentile (1 star) in the 2025-2026 school year, its lowest point in a decade. This is a significant concern, especially when compared to nearby Nette Shultz (76th percentile) and Houston Elementary (70th percentile), which are both high-performing. The school’s biggest academic weakness is in Mathematics, where proficiency rates are well below district and state averages across all tested grades. For example, only 25.58% of 4th graders were proficient in Math, compared to 43.3% in the district. However, Evers Park has a unique strength in its Spanish-language instruction, consistently outperforming district and state averages on Spanish-language STAAR tests, particularly in 5th grade. This suggests a strong bilingual program that effectively serves its Spanish-speaking students.

Interestingly, Evers Park spends more per student ($12,079) than many higher-performing peers, like Nette Shultz ($11,320), indicating that funding alone isn't the issue. The school also shows a "tale of two programs": it struggles to support its Gifted and Talented and Special Education students, but has historically performed well for At-Risk students. A curious pattern is a consistent "5th grade bump" in English Reading scores, which may point to a strong teaching team at that grade level. Evers Park is located in a cluster of low-performing schools, including Ginnings Elementary (15th percentile) and Hodge Elementary (19th percentile), suggesting systemic challenges in the area. The broad-based decline across almost all student subgroups in the latest data is a major red flag that requires immediate attention from school and district leadership.

So far so good. There are 17 students in my son's class. All events and meetings I've been to have been organized and well run. We are updated with take-home papers, stickers on the kids, emails, and facebook posts. Nothing really stands out that needs to be fixed. My son comes home smiling every day. Close Quote
