Summary

Bill J Elliott Elementary is a public elementary school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 349 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Fort Worth Independent School District, which is ranked 733 out of 961 districts in the state.

Bill J Elliott Elementary has consistently struggled with low academic performance, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on STAAR assessments is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. This persistent low performance suggests the school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, ranging from 86-92% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may be contributing to these challenges.

While Bill J Elliott Elementary's per-student spending is slightly higher than the district average, it is still relatively low compared to the state. This limited funding may hinder the school's ability to provide the necessary resources and support to address the needs of its student population. Nearby schools in the Fort Worth ISD, such as Atwood McDonald Elementary and John T White Elementary, also struggle with low academic performance and serve similar student populations, indicating that the challenges faced by Bill J Elliott Elementary may be systemic within the district.
