Ashworth Elementary

Summary:

Ashworth Elementary is a public elementary school in Arlington, Texas, serving 467 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Arlington Independent School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ashworth Elementary stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in 3rd and 6th grade reading and math, where its STAAR test scores exceed the district and state averages. The school also performs exceptionally well for its African American and English Language Learner (ELL) student subgroups, ranking in the top quartile of Texas elementary schools for these groups. However, the school's Hispanic and Gifted and Talented student subgroups perform below the state average. Ashworth's ranking and rating have fluctuated over the years, suggesting inconsistencies in overall performance or changes in the assessment system.

When compared to nearby schools like Pearcy STEM Academy and Bebensee Elementary, Ashworth generally outperforms these schools in academic achievement, particularly in reading and math. This suggests Ashworth may have effective practices or resources that could be shared with other schools in the area. Additionally, despite having a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, Ashworth is able to maintain relatively strong academic performance, which is commendable and could provide insights into effective strategies for supporting students from low-income backgrounds.

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.

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.
