Summary:
The 76247 zip code area in Texas is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Northwest Independent School District (ISD). The schools in this area exhibit a mix of high-performing and average-performing academic outcomes, with some notable differences in student demographics, resource allocation, and educational outcomes.
The standout schools in the area are Gene Pike Middle School, which ranks in the top 509 out of 2,330 Texas middle schools and has a 4-star rating, as well as W.R. Hatfield Elementary and Justin Elementary, both of which rank in the top 1,385 and 1,085 out of 4,647 Texas elementary schools, respectively, and also hold 4-star ratings. These schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates in reading and math across grade levels.
In contrast, Northwest High School has a notable weakness in its Algebra I proficiency rate, which at 30% is well below the district and state averages. The schools in the 76247 zip code area also exhibit significant differences in their student populations, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 23.8% to 50.26%, indicating varying levels of socioeconomic diversity. These factors, along with the differences in spending per student, from $9,076 to $11,733, suggest that the Northwest ISD may need to address resource allocation and equity to ensure all students in the area receive a high-quality education.
