Great Hearts Arlington

Summary:

Great Hearts Arlington is a public charter elementary school serving 834 students in grades K-8 in Arlington, Texas, a diverse community in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area.

Great Hearts Arlington stands out as a high-performing school, with students generally outperforming state and district averages on STAAR tests, particularly in reading and math. For example, in 2022-2023, 76% of 6th graders and 77% of 7th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state averages of 50% and 52% respectively. The school's special education students also perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools. However, there are significant performance gaps between racial subgroups, with Hispanic and Asian students tending to perform better than African American and White students.

Compared to nearby public schools like Carol Holt Elementary, Ashworth Elementary, and Bebensee Elementary, Great Hearts Arlington has higher test scores and a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students. This suggests that the school may be providing a more rigorous academic environment, but it also raises questions about equity and access for all students in the area. Additionally, Great Hearts Arlington has a higher student-teacher ratio of 21.9, which could be a factor in its academic performance but may also present challenges in providing individualized attention to students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
