Summary

Florence Hill Elementary in Grand Prairie, TX, serves 486 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Grand Prairie Independent School District (Isd), a district that has received a 2-star rating and serves a predominantly low-income community where nearly 78% of students are eligible for free or reduced lunch.

Florence Hill Elementary has experienced a dramatic and concerning decline in academic performance over the past several years. Once a solidly average school ranking in the 63rd percentile in 2016-2017, it has fallen to the 9th percentile in the most recent data, making it one of the lowest-performing schools in the state. This decline is most severe in mathematics, where only 15.56% of 4th graders and 18.64% of 5th graders are proficient, compared to state averages of around 49% and 47%, respectively. The school's struggles are particularly stark when compared to nearby schools like Colin Powell Elementary (88th percentile) and Garner Fine Arts Academy (75th percentile), which are achieving significantly higher results in both reading and math despite being located within a few miles.

Interestingly, the school's challenges do not appear to stem from a lack of resources. Florence Hill actually spends more per student ($10,135) than many of its higher-performing neighbors and maintains a comparable student-teacher ratio of 14.8. This suggests the issues are more likely related to instructional quality, curriculum, or school leadership. There is one notable bright spot: in the 2024-2025 school year, 5th-grade science scores (30.77%) actually exceeded both the district (21.71%) and state (29.57%) averages, indicating that effective teaching is possible in some areas. However, the overall picture is one of a school in significant distress, with academic performance declining across nearly all subjects and student groups.
