Summary

Union Park Elementary in Aubrey, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 723 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Denton Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out as a solid, above-average choice for families seeking strong academic foundations. The school consistently outperforms its district, ranking in the 65th percentile of all Texas elementary schools, and its most impressive achievement is in 5th-grade reading, where 78.49% of students were proficient—a remarkable 19 percentage points above the district average and far ahead of nearby schools like Sandbrock Ranch Elementary (66.67%) and Savannah Elementary. This "5th-grade spike" suggests a particularly strong teaching team or targeted curriculum at that grade level, making it a standout for families focused on upper elementary success.

Union Park also excels in supporting English Language Learners (ELL), with these students ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide and earning a 5-star rating—a phenomenal achievement that far exceeds state averages. However, the school faces challenges, particularly in 5th-grade science, where only 20.48% of students were proficient, a gap that is the largest in the area when compared to its reading scores. Nearby schools in Prosper Independent School District (Isd) and Frisco Independent School District (Isd), such as Windsong Ranch Elementary and Minett Elementary, consistently rank in the 90th+ percentile, highlighting a socio-economic and resource divide that Union Park navigates with its diverse student body, where about 33% qualify for free or reduced lunch.

While Union Park is the highest-performing school in its immediate Denton ISD cluster, its performance has been somewhat volatile, with state rankings swinging from the 39th to the 74th percentile in recent years, indicating sensitivity to changes in student cohorts or curriculum. For parents, this means a school that offers strong reading and math outcomes, especially in 5th grade, and exceptional support for ELL students, but with room for improvement in science and for economically disadvantaged students. Overall, it is a reliable choice within its district, though families seeking top-tier, consistent excellence may look to neighboring Prosper or Frisco schools.
