Westpark El, Fort Worth TX - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Westpark El

Westpark Elementary is a regular public school serving children from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade in southwest Fort Worth. The school sits in a mid-sized enrollment band typical for this grade span, drawing from a neighborhood of moderate socioeconomic mix. Just over one-third of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and the enrollment leans predominantly white with a notable Hispanic population and smaller numbers of Black and Asian students.

On state assessments, Westpark shows a mixed profile across grade levels and subjects. In English language arts, the school posts solid results in third and fourth grades, with a majority of students meeting proficiency. Fifth-grade ELA performance holds steady. Math presents a steeper challenge, with proficiency declining notably from third grade through fifth grade, dropping substantially by the time students reach the upper elementary level. Science at the fifth-grade level is the school's weakest area, with less than half of students meeting proficiency. Across all tested subjects, roughly seven in ten students reach the "meets" proficiency threshold, while roughly four in ten reach the "masters" level, suggesting a school where the middle of the performance band is fairly represented but advanced mastery is not the norm.

The school's proficiency index places it in the top quartile among Tarrant County districts when comparing elementary schools, a strength that reflects stronger overall performance than the median in the surrounding region.

The neighborhood where Westpark sits is experiencing the growth dynamics of southwest Fort Worth. Housing values are in the middle range for the area, and the rental market shows modest strength. The broader city context matters here: Fort Worth is one of the nation's fastest-growing urban centers, with significant new development on the western and northwestern edges where subdivisions expand into open land. The city crossed one million residents and entered the ten largest U.S. cities by population, a shift that has pushed rents and housing costs upward from their historically affordable base. This growth context means families considering the Westpark area should expect an increasingly developed streetscape and changing neighborhood character over the coming years.

The school's grade configuration ends at fifth grade, which is typical for elementary schools in Texas districts. Students transition to middle school afterward. No data was available on special education services, English learner populations, attendance, discipline, or teaching staff characteristics. No information on specific academic programs, specialized offerings, or school culture was available from the sources provided. A parent considering this school may want to connect directly with the administration to understand how the school supports students whose performance falls below proficiency in math and science and to learn about available resources for students learning English as an additional language, given the school's demographic profile.

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.
