Profile interpretation

What the reported data says about EAST HANDLEY EL

EAST HANDLEY EL is a public elementary school serving grades PK–05 in FORT WORTH. It is one of 137 current school records connected to FORT WORTH ISD. NCES reports 329 students for 2024–25.

Among 4,660 elementary schools in Texas with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 519 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 16th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.

The reported student–teacher ratio is 15.2:1, close to the Texas median of 14.8:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.

The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are Hispanic or Latino (68.4%) and Black (20.1%). English learners represent 44.4% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 12.7%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.

The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
