Summary

Haley J Elementary is a PK-5 public school in Irving, TX, serving 782 students within the Irving Independent School District (Isd), where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school has experienced a dramatic and sustained academic decline over the past five years, dropping from the 48th percentile statewide in 2017-2018 to the 6th percentile in 2025-2026, placing it among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Texas. This decline is consistent across nearly all subjects and grade levels, indicating a systemic challenge rather than an isolated issue.

Haley J consistently scores below the Irving ISD district average in core subjects like math and reading. For example, in 2025-2026, 3rd Grade Math proficiency was 20.63% compared to the district's 27.95% and the state's 44.33%. The school also struggles with its Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the 2nd percentile for this subgroup. However, there is a notable bright spot: 5th Grade Mathematics, where the school achieved a 38.02% proficiency rate, exceeding the district average of 34.81%. Nearby schools like Gilbert F M Elementary (29th percentile) and John W And Margie Stipes Elementary (39th percentile) have shown more stability, while Uplift Infinity Prep Ps, a charter school just 0.87 miles away serving a similar demographic, ranks in the 57th percentile and achieves proficiency rates 15-25 percentage points higher in core subjects.

The school's per-student spending ($10,377) is comparable to nearby peers like Good Elementary ($11,114) and Brown Elementary ($11,625), suggesting funding is not the primary issue. The pandemic acted as a turning point, with the school failing to rebound like many others. While Spanish-language STAAR tests show some relative strength in bilingual instruction, the overall ranking for English Language Learners is very low (6th percentile). The data strongly suggests a need for comprehensive, systemic intervention to reverse the current trajectory.
