Summary

Roberta Tipps Academy is a PK-4 elementary school in Mansfield, TX, serving 471 students within the highly-rated Mansfield Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the top 22% of Texas school districts.

This school has a consistent track record of strong performance, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for eight consecutive years. It stands out for its exceptional support of its Gifted and Talented students, who rank in the 95th percentile statewide, and its African American students, who rank in the 91st percentile. The school also shows a competitive advantage in math, with 4th-grade math scores (73.4%) surpassing nearby J L Boren Elementary (71.58%) and trailing only slightly behind Nancy Neal Elementary (89.61%). However, reading is an area for growth, as 4th-grade reading scores (68.09%) lag behind both J.L. Boren (75.79%) and Nancy Neal (89.61%). Notably, the school achieves these results with relatively lower per-student spending ($9,499) compared to peers like Carol Holt Elementary ($10,432) and Mary Jo Sheppard Elementary ($11,142), suggesting efficient resource use.

While Roberta Tipps Academy is a solid performer, it sits in a competitive middle tier within its high-achieving district. The school has seen a slight dip in its overall state ranking, from the 87th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 79th percentile in 2025-2026. This decline is mirrored in performance drops for Hispanic and White student subgroups, as well as a volatile trend for English Language Learners. These shifts suggest the school may be facing new challenges that need attention to return to its upward trajectory. For parents, this school offers strong math instruction and targeted support for advanced learners, but reading proficiency and consistent support for all student groups are areas to monitor.
