Summary

Lakewood Elementary in Euless, TX, is a PK-6 school serving 573 students within the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out for its exceptional Gifted & Talented program, which ranks in the top 1% statewide, while also effectively supporting students from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

Lakewood’s most remarkable feature is its Gifted & Talented program, which has ranked in the 99th-100th percentile statewide for the last three years—a level of performance unmatched by nearby schools like North Euless Elementary or Midway Park Elementary. The school also excels with its low socio-economic status (SES) students, ranking in the 80th percentile, which is a stark contrast to other high-poverty schools in the area. However, the school faces a significant challenge with its Special Education population, which has consistently ranked lower, and a recurring "5th-grade math wall" where proficiency drops dramatically—from 65.93% in 4th grade to just 33.33% in 5th grade in the most recent year. This is the largest grade-level swing in math among all nearby schools and warrants attention.

In reading, Lakewood consistently outperforms its direct HEB ISD neighbors, such as Arbor Creek Elementary and Midway Park, with 6th-grade reading scores (70.24%) significantly higher than theirs. The school’s per-student spending ($9,334) is in the middle of the pack, suggesting its success is driven by effective instruction rather than a larger budget. Geographically, Lakewood sits between the wealthier Grapevine-Colleyville Independent School District (Isd) schools, like Heritage Elementary, and lower-performing HEB ISD schools, acting as a high-performing anchor for its community. For parents, Lakewood offers a strong, equitable education with standout programs for advanced learners and economically disadvantaged students, but it has clear areas for improvement in special education and 5th-grade math.

Open Quote This school is a joke! They basically encourage kids to be bullies! My child has been going there for 3 years now and it just keeps getting worse. The recurring theme there is that it`s perfectly fine to pick on someone, but if they dare say something back or defend themselves in any way, they get in trouble. This type of unfair treatment seems to be perfectly acceptable at this school and it`s not right! I just feel that someone needed to expose this school for what it is...a JOKE!!! Close Quote
