Summary:
The 76135 zip code area in Texas is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 high schools, and no middle schools or alternative schools, spread across three different school districts: Lake Worth Independent School District (ISD), Eagle Mt-Saginaw ISD, and Azle ISD.
While the majority of schools in the area underperform compared to state averages, two standout schools are Eagle Heights Elementary, which is ranked among the top 1,500 elementary schools in Texas and has consistently received strong ratings, and Greenfield Elementary, which is ranked in the top half of Texas elementary schools and has relatively strong test scores. The schools in the Lake Worth ISD, which includes the majority of the schools in the data set, consistently perform below state averages on academic measures, with lower graduation rates and higher dropout rates compared to the state.
Socioeconomic factors appear to play a significant role, as the schools with the highest rates of free/reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating low-income student populations, tend to have the lowest test scores and rankings. While the Lake Worth ISD schools have higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios, these resources do not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes, suggesting the need for more effective allocation and utilization of resources within the district.
