While the Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD as a whole performs well, there is significant variation in academic performance across the individual schools. Factors such as socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, appear to play a role in student achievement, with higher-performing schools generally having lower percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The district's investment in middle school education also seems to pay off, with the top-ranked middle schools setting students up for success in high school and beyond.
