Summary

Oaklawn Elementary is a public elementary school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 431 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD), which is ranked 733 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oaklawn Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools, with performance on state assessments significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 24% of 3rd graders at Oaklawn were proficient in STAAR Reading, compared to 40.56% in the district and 52.02% statewide. The school also has a very high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with over 95% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite spending around $9,500 per student, which is slightly higher than the district average, Oaklawn's student-teacher ratio is higher than nearby schools, ranging from 17.9 to 19 students per teacher.

While the nearby Clifford Davis Elementary and A.M. Pate Elementary also struggle with low academic performance, some charter schools in the area, like Idea Southeast Academy and Uplift Mighty School, appear to be performing better than the traditional public schools. This suggests that comprehensive, data-driven interventions and support may be needed to improve educational outcomes for the students at Oaklawn and in the surrounding community.
