Q: Is Rolling Hills Elementary a good school?

Summary:

Rolling Hills Elementary is a public elementary school serving approximately 500 students in grades PK-5 in the Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD) in Fort Worth, Texas. This high-performing school significantly outperforms the FWISD and Texas state averages on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests across all grade levels and subjects.

In the 2023-2024 school year, 70% of 3rd graders, 52.46% of 4th graders, and 65.38% of 5th graders at Rolling Hills Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to just 32.84%, 33.2%, and 40.09% for the FWISD, respectively. In STAAR Mathematics, Rolling Hills had 68.33% of 3rd graders, 67.21% of 4th graders, and 57.69% of 5th graders proficient or better, compared to 29.25%, 31.44%, and 35.81% for the FWISD. The school's 5th-grade STAAR Science proficiency rate of 17.31% is also significantly higher than the FWISD's 12.75%. This strong academic performance has earned Rolling Hills Elementary a 4-star rating and a statewide ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools.

Compared to nearby schools like Manuel Jara Elementary, Charles Nash Elementary, and South High Mount Elementary, Rolling Hills Elementary has a more diverse student population and outperforms these schools in academic achievement, which may be attributed to effective teaching practices, a supportive learning environment, and engaged parental involvement. While the school's overall performance is impressive, there is still room for improvement, particularly in 5th-grade STAAR Science, and in supporting the academic success of economically disadvantaged 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.

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.
