Summary

J T Stevens Elementary is a PK-5 school in Fort Worth, TX, serving 361 students within the Fort Worth Independent School District (Isd), and it has shown a remarkable academic turnaround in recent years.

This school stands out for its strong and consistent improvement, climbing from the 6th percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 45th percentile in the most recent data. This upward trend is unique in its immediate area, as nearby schools like Westcreek Elementary, Woodway Elementary, and Hazel Harvey Peace Elementary have either stagnated or declined. J T Stevens is also a "bright spot" within its district, outperforming the Fort Worth ISD average in 3rd and 4th grade reading and math. For example, its 3rd and 4th grade reading scores (52.73% and 53.57%) are actually higher than those at the nearby Harmony Science Academy- Fort Worth, a charter school with a lower poverty rate. The school's favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.5:1 supports more individualized attention.

While the school excels in early literacy for its Hispanic and White students, a critical vulnerability exists for its most vulnerable populations. English Language Learner students rank in the 5th percentile and low socio-economic status students rank in the 18th percentile statewide, indicating that the school's improvement strategies may not be reaching these groups. Additionally, 5th grade math is a notable weakness, with only 26.32% of students proficient, well below the state average. For context, the nearby Overton Park Elementary is a top-1% school, but its student body has a very low poverty rate, highlighting the significant challenges J T Stevens has overcome to achieve its current level of performance.
