Best Public Schools in Zip Code 75238


Summary:

The 75238 zip code area in Richardson, Texas is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all within the Richardson Independent School District (ISD). The data reveals stark contrasts in academic performance, with White Rock Elementary and Lake Highlands Elementary standing out as top-performing schools, while Personalized Learning Academy at Highland Meadows and Northlake Elementary struggle academically.

The high-performing schools, White Rock Elementary and Lake Highlands Elementary, consistently outperform the district and state averages on STAAR reading and math tests, with over 70% of students proficient or better. These schools also have relatively low percentages of free/reduced lunch recipients, indicating a more affluent student population. In contrast, the lower-performing schools serve a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates reaching as high as 96.07% at Personalized Learning Academy at Highland Meadows.

The data suggests that factors beyond just funding and resources, such as student demographics and socioeconomic status, may be playing a significant role in the schools' academic outcomes. This raises questions about the equitable distribution of resources and support for schools serving more economically disadvantaged populations within the 75238 zip code area. The strong performance of the top-performing elementary schools, however, highlights the importance of effective early education in setting students up for long-term academic success.
