Remynse El, Grand Prairie TX - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Remynse El

Remynse Elementary, part of Arlington ISD in Grand Prairie, is a small public school serving early grades through sixth grade. The school sits within the Dallas-Fort Worth region, where about a quarter of Grand Prairie residents are foreign-born, and the local job market draws people into health care, manufacturing, retail trade, and aerospace sectors.

The school's student body reflects this economic and demographic profile. The vast majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating substantial economic need in the population served. The enrollment is split across a range of backgrounds: just over half the students identify as Hispanic, a significant minority as Black, and smaller populations as Asian, white, or multiracial. The school has no reported data on students with disabilities or English learners, so it's unclear what special-population services are offered or how many students rely on them.

On state testing, Remynse's proficiency rates run below the midpoint among Tarrant County districts. In English language arts, the school shows a modest rise across grades, with third and fifth graders near the midway point in performance, but fourth graders notably lower. Sixth grade shows the strongest ELA result. Math proficiency is similar in range, with most grades in the low-to-mid range, though the school reports meaningful proficiency gains from fifth to sixth grade in ELA. Science data for fifth grade was withheld because the tested group was too small. When looking at performance across all subjects using a single index, Remynse sits above the county median, though the floor remains low in absolute terms across both subjects.

The school faces a context of district-wide enrollment decline. Arlington ISD has signaled that closures and consolidations are coming as enrollment drops, meaning families should ask whether Remynse is likely to be affected and how that might reshape attendance zones or school size. The district also recently shifted its math curriculum after a close board vote, so instruction in that subject is in transition.

On the positive side, Arlington ISD has made universal pre-K free to all four-year-olds in the district regardless of income or residence, using a STEM-focused curriculum the district built in-house. That is a lasting offering families with younger children would consider. A May 2026 bond narrowly approved will fund new and replacement schools and facility improvements, though capital projects take years to complete.

A parent considering Remynse should understand the school serves a predominantly low-income student body and is positioned in the lower tier of county proficiency outcomes. Testing data covers grades three through six and shows patterns by grade that may reflect instruction, curriculum transitions, or student mobility. Strengths in sixth-grade ELA suggest older students show gains, though the overall proficiency base remains modest. The school does not report staffing, detailed program offerings, discipline data, or attendance metrics, so a parent may want to ask the school directly about class sizes, special services, after-school supports, and how the ongoing district restructuring may affect Remynse's future.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
