Original Research by School Decision on Women's Haven
Women's Haven is an alternative school in Fort Worth serving grades one through ten. The school is very small, with a total enrollment in the single digits across all grades. It is not a charter school.
State testing data from the school is suppressed across all subjects and grades where it exists, which means the enrollment in tested grades was too small for the state to report proficiency rates. The school's participation in state assessments was complete where testing applied, but the number of students tested in each grade and subject was minimal, making it impossible to discern academic performance from available state results.
The school serves a student body that is predominantly Hispanic and Black, with a smaller share of multiracial students. No data was available on the rate of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the count or rate of students with individualized education plans, or the count or rate of English learners.
Women's Haven operates as an alternative school within Fort Worth Independent School District. The district serves most of Fort Worth as well as several adjacent communities including Benbrook, Westover Hills, Westworth Village, and portions of other areas. Information on the school's specific pedagogical approach, program focus, or student support structure was not provided in available sources, so a parent may want to contact the school directly to understand its instructional model and whether it aligns with their child's needs.
The school is located in Fort Worth, a large, rapidly growing Texas city. The city has distinct neighborhoods and districts, including a walkable downtown anchored by Sundance Square, a Cultural District with major museums, the historic Stockyards, and the Near Southside arts and restaurant district. Fort Worth has grown substantially and recently entered the ranks of the nation's ten largest cities. The local job market spans aerospace and defense, government, education, healthcare, and aviation, with major employers including American Airlines, Lockheed Martin, and various health systems. Public transit includes Trinity Metro bus service, TEXRail connecting to DFW Airport, and the Trinity Railway Express to Dallas.
Housing costs in the Fort Worth area have risen amid population growth. The median home value in the school's zip code is above the state average, and rental costs have also increased. A parent may want to research specific neighborhoods and their proximity to the school before committing to enrollment.
