3Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools | CHILDREN AT RISK

CHILDREN AT RISK is a nonprofit organization that drives change for children

through research, education and influencing public policy. Texas School Guide: A

Parent’s Roadmap to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools has been developed

independently, and is not endorsed by the Dallas Independent School District (Dallas

ISD).

The school level information that appears in this guide has been gathered from the

Texas Education Agency, the Dallas ISD website, or individual schools. The informa-

tion in this guide is subject to change at any time and it is important that parents,

community members, educators, and all others contact their schools directly to ob-

tain the most current and accurate information.

See page 226 for a more detailed description of our methodology.

Disclaimer


CHILDREN AT RISK is pleased to share the Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap

to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools with you. We hope that this resource will

serve as an important tool as you and your child navigate the public school system in

the Dallas ISD area. Because education is one of the most important influences in set-

ting your child on the right path for future success, it is important to find the school

that is the best fit for your child. That may look different for different students, and can

include certain athletic programs, course offerings, learning styles or a variety of other

factors.

At CHILDREN AT RISK, we know that there are many quality options for public educa-

tion available from neighborhood schools, charter schools, and schools with magnet

programs. Dallas is proud to claim the number one high school in the state, but two

Dallas high schools also landed in the bottom ten schools across the state. Therefore,

it can be difficult to understand the true quality of your student’s school, and what you

can do to ensure your child receives the best education possible.

We hope that Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap to Success in Dallas ISD Area

Public Schools will provide you with the information you need to make the best school

decision for your child. We look forward to providing this resource annually and wel-

come your feedback to help us make this resource as helpful to parents as possible.

Sincerely,

Message to Parents

Parents today are faced with a myriad of choices in public education, including tradi-

tional public schools, magnet schools and programs, and charter schools. Each option

comes with its own system to navigate, and some also involve a complex application

process. CHILDREN AT RISK has developed Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap

to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools to serve as a one-stop-shop for parents as

they navigate these systems.

Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools

has three main goals. We hope to empower parents to:

1. Understand How Local Schools are Performing

2. Become Aware of their School Options

3. Become Advocates for High Quality Public Schools

The Parent Action Guides contain helpful information and tips on early childhood edu-

cation, higher education, school choice, and parent advocacy to help parents navigate

the decision-making process. The school profiles included in this guide provide de-

tailed demographic, performance and school asset data, when available, on the public

schools in Dallas ISD, as well as information on independent charter schools that fall

within the district zip codes. In the school profile section you will see a letter grade as-

sociated with each school that will read:

A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D, F or Not Available (NA)

You will also see school rankings that indicate

how well the school is performing in com-

parison to other schools in the state. Each

school’s profile will include their ranking out

of the total number of schools ranked for that

grade level in Texas.

State Ranking: Individual School Ranking /

Total Schools Ranked for that Grade Level

across the State

If you find that your school is not ranked or

graded highly, we encourage you to visit the

Parent Action Guides to understand your op-

tions and what steps you might take. In some

cases, you may find a charter school that bet-

ter meets your needs, or you might find that

you are eligible for a within-district transfer.

You might also decide that changing schools

is not the best option for you and your child.

Introduction: How to Use This Guide


You can view all of this information online

at TexasSchoolGuide.org and search for

schools based on various characteristics:

school type, grade level, school assets or

programs, and distance. It is important to

remember that many factors contribute

to making a school a good fit for your

child. Only you can decide what is most

important when making that decision.

Regardless of your choice, we hope that

Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Road-

map to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public

Schools can provide the resources and

data you need along your journey!

PARENT ACTION GUIDES

What Are My School Choice Options?


What Are My School Choice Options?

What Is School Choice?School choice is choosing a school for your child based on the qualities of the school

and your child’s needs, rather than on your home address. While school choice op-

tions vary from district to district, parents do have alternatives to the traditional

neighborhood school the district assigns your child to attend. When considering other

public school options for your child, you may consider charter schools as well as mag-

net schools and programs. No type of school is inherently superior, and to determine

which school is right for your child, you must research the individual schools.

CHILDREN AT RISK gives a letter grade of A, B,

C, D, or F to schools throughout the state of Tex-

as, with schools with an A letter grade being the

highest performing. For the purpose of Texas

School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap to Success

in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools, the schools’

letter grades have been further differentiated

with pluses or minuses to give parents a more in

depth look at school quality. Schools with letter

grades in the A, B, or C range are considered ac-

ceptable options for student success. CHILDREN

AT RISK considers D and F schools to be of low-

er quality and underperforming in some areas. If

your child is attending a traditional neighborhood school that is lower performing, you

may want to consider what other options you have. Options include transferring your

child to a different school within the district, applying to a magnet program, opting for

a charter school, or improving the quality of your child’s current school from within.

These options are described in greater detail in this section:• Visiting a School: Questions to Ask and Things to Look For

• Understanding Your Options: What are Neighborhood Schools, Charter Schools,

Magnet Schools, and Private Schools?

• Transfer Options within Dallas ISD

• Charter School Options and the Application Process

• Career Academies and Pathways at Dallas ISD High Schools

Visiting a School

If you choose to send your child to another school, you should visit the individual cam-

puses and consider what matters most to you and your family. Here is a list of ques-

tions to ask, as well as important things to look for when visiting a school:

Parents do have alternatives to the traditional neighborhood

school the district assigns your child

to attend


Questions to Ask When Visiting a School• What is the school’s mission? The

mission statement is usually a summary

statement of the school’s values and

purpose.

• What is the school’s approach to safety

and discipline?

• How does the school monitor student

progress?

• What strategies do teachers use to

teach students with limited English

proficiency?

• How do students get to school? Is bus

transportation available?

• Are free or reduced-price meals offered?

• What extracurricular opportunities are available for students?

• How do fine arts fit into the curriculum?

• What rules and systems are most important in classrooms?

• Are there opportunities for parents to get involved?

• What systems are in place for students that are struggling?

• What is the typical class size? What is the maximum class size?

• If a child is excelling academically, are there advanced courses or enrichment

programs?

• How is technology used to support teaching and learning?

• What are the school’s greatest accomplishments?

• What are the school’s greatest challenges?

• How do teachers communicate with parents?

• Are parent-teacher conferences scheduled regularly throughout the year?

• What is the student attrition rate? The student attrition rate represents the

numbers of students dropping out.

• What is the teacher attrition rate? The teacher attrition rate represents the number

of teachers leaving the school.

Things to Look For When Visiting a School• Do teachers interact with their students in a positive manner?

• Do classrooms look cheerful?

• Are the students well-behaved as they transition in the hallways and play outside?

• Do the school’s administrators interact positively with students, teachers, and

parents?

• Are the classrooms, hallways, restrooms, and outside areas of the school clean and

well maintained?

• Are students adequately supervised by school personnel?

• Do students engage with each other in a positive way?

• Are the teachers keeping students engaged and thinking critically?


Understanding Your Options

What Are Neighborhood Schools?A neighborhood school is the school that a child is assigned to based on their home

address, and according to the district’s boundaries and attendance zones. Dallas ISD

provides a resource that allows you to enter your home address and identify your

neighborhood school: www.dallasisd.org/Page/22686. These boundaries change

frequently, so you should call your school to confirm which neighborhood school your

child has been assigned to before enrolling.

What Are Charter Schools?Charter schools are public schools that operate independently of local school districts.

They are tuition-free and publicly funded by local, state, and federal dollars. In addition,

charter schools also receive private donations. Charter schools are open to any student

within a specified region that wishes to apply. Because applications exceed the space

available at charter schools, many charter schools use a lottery system to determine

enrollment. Although charter schools are subject to the same rules and regulations as

traditional public schools, they generally enjoy greater flexibility. For example, some

charter schools have a longer school day and school year than traditional schools.

What Are Magnet Schools / Programs?Magnet schools are public schools of choice that are either run by a school district or

a group of school districts. These schools are named magnet schools because they

tend to draw students from different attendance zone boundaries. The curriculum of a

magnet school or program is aligned to a particular focus area, such as Science Tech-

nology Engineering Mathematics (STEM), performing arts, leadership, or certain career

paths. These programs require an application, and some are selective while others use

a lottery system. Because magnet schools and programs are specialized, they are able

to offer a more intensive education in their focus area than traditional public schools.

Some magnet programs are housed within traditional public schools, while others are

housed on their own campus. In some cases, several magnet programs are housed

together on one campus.

What Are Private Schools?Private schools are schools that are not supported by the government, but rather

receive their funding from individuals or a private organization. Private schools usu-

ally require students to pay tuition. The application process is similar to the college

application process and includes applications, admission tests, interviews, financial

aid applications, etc. Private schools can have a religious affiliation or be independent.

Although this guide does not profile private schools, they are one of the available op-

tions for parents in the Dallas area.

WHAT ARE MY SCHOOL CHOICE OPTIONS? cont.


Transfer Options within Dallas ISD

While students in Dallas ISD are zoned to a particular school, they may apply for trans-

fers to other schools that better match their interests or needs if they meet the eligibil-

ity requirements listed below. However, all transfers are subject to approval and space

availability. It is also important to note that if a student transfers away from his or her

assigned school, the district does not provide transportation.

The three main ways for students to transfer include:

1. Student Transfers: Initiated because of student/family needs

2. Public Education Grant (PEG) Transfers: Initiated because of the school’s

performance

3. Out-of-District Transfers: Initiated because an out-of-district student wants to

attend a Dallas ISD school

There are application deadlines associated with each of these transfer options so be

sure to check the most current deadlines by visiting the Dallas ISD website or by con-

tacting your school or the district directly.

Student TransfersThe first type of transfer is defined as a “Student Trans-

fer.” A student may submit a transfer request to attend the

nearest Dallas ISD school that offers a program or course

that the neighborhood school does not offer, or to attend

another Dallas ISD school if the student cannot attend

the neighborhood school due to personal or family cir-

cumstances. For example, if the student is interested in a

program like the ROTC, but the neighborhood school does

not offer that program, the student may apply for a trans-

fer to another district school that offers a ROTC program.

Another example is a “hardship transfer.” A hardship might

be if a parent works far away from their child’s neighbor-

hood school, and would find it difficult to get back to that school quickly in case of

an emergency. The typical transfer window for this type of transfer is early January

to early March, and the transfer application will need to be repeated every year if the

child wishes to remain at the school.

The process for this transfer includes:• A parent needs to first contact the new school’s principal to obtain an approval

for a transfer. If the principal accepts the transfer, he or she will sign the transfer

request application.

• Once the principal of the new school approves the transfer, the transfer application

needs to be signed by the principal of the student’s neighborhood school.

• Finally, submit the transfer application for approval to the Student Transfer Office

at Dallas ISD (see contact information below).


• If the Student Transfer Office denies the application, the parent may file an ap-

peal and present his or her case to a committee. The appeal will usually take place

towards the end of the school year. In order to file an appeal, contact the Student

Transfer Office directly.

Dallas, Texas 75206

Office: (972) 749-5720

Fax: (972) 749-5724

PEG TransfersThe second type of transfer is related to school performance. Students attending

Public Education Grant (PEG) designated schools are eligible to transfer to a different

school. PEG schools are low-performing schools where 50% or more of the students

did not pass any of the TAKS/STAAR subjects in two of the preceding three years, or

schools that were recently rated Academically Unacceptable by the Texas Education

Agency. Every year, districts must notify the parents of a student in a PEG-designated

school of the school’s PEG status by February 1st. If your child is zoned to a PEG

school they can transfer to a select number of public schools. A list of current PEG-

designated schools can be downloaded at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/peg_2013-14/.

This list is updated annually, so it is important to visit the website to see the most

recent list of eligible schools.

Out-of-District TransfersThe third type of transfer is an out-of-district transfer. Students who live outside of the

district, but want to attend a district school may be eligible for an out of district trans-

fer. You can download the Out-of-District Form from the district’s website at www.

dallasisd.org/Page/100.

Charter School Options and the Application Process

Any student residing in Dallas ISD is eligible to apply to the charter schools listed

below, though this list is not exhaustive. Some charter schools also allow for students

outside of the district to apply, but priority may be given to those residing within the

district. Most charter schools operate on a lottery system. This means that the school

uses a random selection process to pick its students. If your child is on a charter

schools waiting list, it may help to follow up with the school to let the school know that

you are interested in getting off the waiting list if space becomes available.

While many applications can be submitted online, the process depends on the school.

In addition, some schools require supplemental documents or an interview/audition.

Visit the school’s website to learn more about the current deadlines and application

procedures.

Career Academies and Pathways

Career Academies and Pathways, which serve to prepare students for college and

careers, are specialized programs that are offered at comprehensive Dallas ISD high

schools. A Career Academy is run on a school within a school model and com-

prised of approximately 75-150 students. The Academies offer a personalized learn-

ing environment where students have the same core and career themed teachers.

The programs also include relationships with local business, community and higher

education organizations to enhance the applied aspect of the Career Academy

Program. A Career Pathway is a program that allows students to take a series of

elective courses that are focused around a pathway career theme. These targeted

programs provide students extensive knowledge and skills which lead to a certifi-

cate, degree, and/or career.

These programs are open to all students, but in order to enroll in a program outside

of one’s feeder pattern the student must be approved by the receiving school prin-

cipal. To find out what feeder pattern your school is located in please visit the Dis-

trict’s website http://www.dallasisd.org/Page/3201. Applications are available from

the school counselor, the website, or the Academy and Pathway Showcase which is

typically held in December. For a list of updated deadlines visit the district’s website

at http://www.dallasisd.org/Page/18562, or contact the district directly.

How Can I Get Involved at MyChild’s School?


How Can I Get Involved at My Child’s School?

Parent involvement is a leading factor in student success and outcomes. Students with

involved parents are more likely than their peers with uninvolved parents to earn bet-

ter grades, attend school regularly, have positive attitudes about school, and be better

behaved. As a result, parents can help their children succeed by becoming an educa-

tion advocate. Taking the time to be involved in your child’s education not only allows

you to ensure your child is receiving the quality education he or she deserves, but also

shows your student how important their academic success is to your family. Advocat-

ing for your child’s education means making sure that your child is getting the very

best education possible.

In this section you can learn how to:• Build relationships with people at your child’s school.

• Join parent organizations on campus.

• Get involved with decision making at your child’s school.

• Find your School Board Representative.

• Access services provided by community organizations.

Building RelationshipsThe first step to becoming an advocate for your

child’s education is to form relationships with

teachers, counselors, coaches, and administra-

tors at your child’s school. Forming these re-

lationships early in your child’s time at school

will make you feel comfortable going to these

people when problems or questions come up.

If you have felt frustrated and do not understand

the school process, or just have not had the op-

portunity to form these relationships, here are

some great ways to get started:

• Attend school events when you are able,

such as open houses, performances or award ceremonies.

• Join district groups, such as the School Health Advisory Council that focuses on

health and nutrition policies within the district.

• Join parent groups or organizations at your child’s school.

• Get involved in after school programs that your child is involved in.

• Get involved with the Site Based Decision Making Committee at your child’s school.

• Volunteer with the school or in your child’s classroom.

• Vote in the School Board of Trustees election.

• Request a conference with your child’s teacher, counselor, or school administrator. If

you work during the school day, you can request a conference at a time that works

for you.

The first step to becoming an

advocate for your child’s education

is to form relationships


Outside of attending events and direct contact with the school, you can advocate for

your child by communicating the importance of education. You can do this by:

• Making sure your child attends school regularly.

• Making sure your child does their homework.

• Making sure your child gets to school on time.

• Regularly checking your child’s progress through Parent Portal to identify any

problems early.

• Regularly checking your child’s progress through Parent Portal to identify any

problems early. On Parent Portal you have access to many school related indica-

tors, including your student’s grades, homework assignments, and teacher contact

information. Learn more about Parent Portal at Dallas ISD by visiting http://www.

dallasisd.org/parentportal.

Parent Groups and OrganizationsParent Teacher Associations (PTA’s), Parent

Teacher Student Associations (PTSA’s), and

Parent Teacher Organizations (PTO’s) engage

and empower parents to become advocates

for their children. Although these organiza-

tions have similar missions, the PTA is con-

nected to a local, state, or national associa-

tion, while the PTO is specific to an individual

school campus.

Many parent organizations keep parents

involved and informed about what is going on

at school. This might include organizing a school fundraiser, working with teachers

or providing parent trainings on how to get involved at school. If you are interested

in getting involved in these organizations, contact your school’s office about how to

join. If your school does not currently have a PTA, PTSA or a PTO, you can start one.

Organizing a Parent Teacher Association:

Any school official, parent or interested person can organize a PTA. First, gain the

support of your school principal or superintendent, and multiple teachers. For

more information about organizing a new local PTA, contact the Director of Mem-

ber Services, Mary Jo Burgess, [email protected] or 1-800-TALK-PTA or visit

their website at www.txpta.org.

Organizing a Parent Teacher Organization:

To start a PTO, organize a group of interested people, agree on a common goal,

and start working together to make it happen. Examples include running an ice

cream social for parents, students and teachers to get to know one another, or a

school fundraiser to raise money. Because every PTO is an independent organiza-

tion, bylaws vary by organization. Learn more about organizing a PTO at www.

ptotoday.com.

Note that some PTA’s and PTO’s have small membership fees.


Site Based Decision Making CommitteeIf you are interested in getting involved in the decision making that goes on at your

child’s campus, you might consider joining your school’s Site Based Decision Making

(SBDM) Committee. SBDM Committees are school based meetings that include teach-

ers, administrators, community leaders and parents and are open to the public. Even

if parents are not part of the committee, attending a SBDM meeting is a good way to

meet school officials and learn about the latest updates at your child’s school. Contact

your school directly to learn more about SBDM.

Dallas ISD Board of TrusteesThe Dallas School Board includes nine trustees that are elected by residents of the

individual districts and serve for a three-year term. Trustees have a variety of responsi-

bilities including establishing school operational policies, hiring the Superintendent of

Schools, allocating financial and human resources, and evaluating school performance.

You can learn more about the Dallas ISD’s board policy online at http://pol.tasb.org/

Home/Index/361. To find out which district your school is located in, visit http://www.

dallasisd.org/domain/447.

Below is a list of the current board representatives. • District 1: Elizabeth Jones (Term Expires 2015)

• District 2: Mike Morath (Term Expires 2014)

• District 3: Dan Micciche (Term Expires 2015)

• District 4: Nancy Bingham (Term Expires 2016)

• District 5: Lew Blackburn (Term Expires 2016)

• District 6: Carla Ranger (Term Expires 2014)

• District 7: Eric Cowan (Term Expires 2016)

• District 8: Miguel Solis (Term Expires 2014)

• District 9: Bernadette Nutall (Term Expires 2015)

If you have concerns about your child’s school, first contact the school’s principal. If

you are unable to resolve your concerns with the principal, you may contact the Board

Services Department. Parents can also file a formal appeal against the decision of

a principal. If you would like to file a formal appeal, use the following form, located

under Policy FNG (Exhibit) on the online Board Policy server at http://pol.tasb.org/

Policy/Download/361?filename=FNG(XHIBIT).pdf.

Community OrganizationsLocal community centers, churches, and nonprofit organizations are important re-

sources for parent involvement. Some organizations offer parent trainings that can

help you learn how to request and have successful conferences with teachers, counsel-

ors and school administrators. Here is a brief list of organizations that are working with

students and parents in the community:

Early ChildhoodEducation(Ages 0-5)


Early Childhood Education(Ages 0-5)

Deciding on a childcare or preschool program for your child can be a daunting and

stressful task. There are many issues to consider including quality, location, cost, and

hours of operation. Fortunately, many of these issues can be resolved with a quick

phone call or visit to the program’s website. Unfortunately, quality, the main concern

for parents, requires more effort.

Why is Early Childhood Education Important?The first five years of a child’s life are the most

important in brain development. During this

time, children acquire knowledge at a more

rapid rate than at any other period in their life.

Children who attend high quality early educa-

tion programs are more likely to: be ready for

kindergarten, score better on standardized

tests, go to college, and have higher paying

jobs as adults. A supportive and engaging early

childhood education program is important be-

cause it starts infants and toddlers on the path

to success.

What Should You Look For in a Childcare or Preschool Program?Early childhood education programs such as pre-kindergarten and academically

focused childcare set children up to be successful students before they ever step into

a kindergarten classroom. These programs should provide children with developmen-

tally appropriate instruction in vocabulary, early literacy, phonemic awareness, math,

and many other areas that students often struggle with during their elementary

years. In addition, these programs should also help children to become more com-

fortable with routine and structure.

Licensed childcare facilities are monitored and regulated by the Texas Department

of Family and Protective Services. The state routinely inspects these facilities and

enforces basic health and safety standards. Records of the state’s inspections are

publicly available at www.dontbeinthedark.org. In addition, the National Associa-

tion for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) accredits and certifies centers.

The NAEYC standards are much higher than the state’s minimum standards. A list of

centers accredited by NAEYC is available at www.naeyc.org/academy/accreditation/

search.

After checking the program’s accreditation status and the state’s records for viola-

tions and compliance, you should visit the center to gain a better sense of both the

physical and emotional environment.


Visiting the CenterDuring your visit, plan to spend 20-30 minutes

talking to staff and observing their morning

or afternoon routines (circle time, book reads,

and center time are the best times to observe).

If possible, avoid visiting during meal and nap

times as you will be less likely to see the qual-

ity of learning activities between the staff and

children.

Things to pay attention to include:

Physical Environment:

Classrooms and areas for children should be

open and visible from any other point within

the classroom. This ensures that the teachers can always see your child and make

sure that your child is not at risk for injury or participating in unsafe activities. Age

appropriate materials such as alphabet posters, letter walls, calendars, and weather

and reading charts should be at your child’s eye level (not near the ceiling or at an

adult’s eye level). For classrooms serving children three years and older, look for

evidence of: writing (both children’s and teacher’s), sorting, counting, as well as

number, letter and word recognition. These are all good signs that the program is

working on academic enrichment activities.

Emotional Environment:

Students should feel safe to share their thoughts and feelings in the classroom.

The classroom should not be a place for unkind words, bullying, or verbal abuse,

as these are detrimental to the child’s well-being and social development. Ask staff

specifically about their discipline policies. Also watch how staff members relate to

one another and to the children both in and out of the classroom.

Teacher Qualifications Ask teachers and staff about their qualifications. You are trusting your child to their

program and have the right to make sure they are qualified and capable professionals.

Early childhood teachers should have formal training in the field of early childhood

education so that they may adequately provide the instruction and care that your child

deserves. The state of Texas requires a high school diploma or GED, 24 hours of pre-

service training, and 24 hours of annual continuing education for early childcare pro-

fessionals. Suggested teacher trainings include classes on curriculum, safety practices,

first aid, and emergency preparedness. Below are the most common qualifications for

early childhood instructors.

• Early Childhood Associates Degree / Child Development Associates Degree from

an accredited program: teachers holding this degree have spent two years acquir-

ing knowledge on how to provide the appropriate environment and curriculum to

children in their classroom.

• Bachelor’s Degree in Education (or another field) with a teaching certificate from

During your visit, plan to spend 20-30 minutes talking to staff and observing

their morning or afternoon routines


the state specifying an Early Childhood qualification: teachers holding this de-

gree and certification have rigorous training in classroom management, curricu-

lum, and at least one semester of practicum in a classroom under the observation

of a mentor teacher.

Other Things to Consider and Ask About:• Waiting lists: Many early childhood programs have waiting lists and a registration

process, including a non-refundable deposit.

• Food menus: Some programs ask parents to provide the food for their child, while

others offer meals and snacks. For those that serve food, menus should be avail-

able to give you an example of the types of foods being served. If parents are

expected to provide meals and snacks, ask how the food is stored throughout the

day (refrigerator or at room temperature) so you know what you should pack.

• Time spent on the playground: Children should spend 30-45 minutes on the play-

ground in the morning and afternoon (weather permitting).

• Screen time (TV and Computers): It is recommended that screen time be limited

to no more than one to two hours per day for children over two years of age.

• Childcare assistance: Families meeting specific requirements (financial and other

factors) are eligible for childcare assistance. Check with your local workforce

solutions office to see if you qualify for childcare assistance. To locate your local

workforce solutions office, go to www.twc.state.tx.us/dirs/wdas/directory-offices-

services.html.

Preparing for Post-SecondaryEducation(High School Students)


Preparing for Post-Secondary Education(High School Students)

There are many options for higher education

in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, including

four-year colleges, two-year colleges, and trade

schools. An advanced degree or certification can

create employment opportunities that may not be

available to those with only a high school diploma.

It is important to set expectations for post-sec-

ondary education, or continued education after

high school, early so that children are encouraged

to set goals that help them obtain those degrees.

In this section you will learn more about:

• Post-Secondary Education Opportunities in

the Area

• The Application Process

• Financial Aid Resources

• How Students Can Stay on Track with a High School Timeline

Post-Secondary Education Opportunities in the AreaIt is helpful to be knowledgeable about the different opportunities for post-secondary

education early in your child’s high school career. This way you can make sure that

you do not miss important application deadlines, required high school courses for

particular programs, or other steps that must be taken prior to admittance into a

higher education program.

An advanced degree or

certification can create

employment opportunities


If your child intends to pursue higher education, you may want to consider the rigor

of the high school they attend. High schools that provide good preparation for college

should offer an academically challenging curriculum, a college-bound culture, and a

support system for navigating college admissions. Indicators of these characteristics

can include:

• Wide offering of advanced courses like Advanced Placement (AP), International

Baccalaureate (IB), and/or Honors courses

• High rate of students taking the SAT or ACT exams

• Available and knowledgeable guidance counselors

ApplicationsMost post-secondary tracks require some kind

of application. Community colleges have an

open-door admissions policy, which means

that students are admitted regardless of previ-

ous academic history. However, parents and

students should be advised that students in

Texas entering a public college institution,

including community colleges, must meet

the minimum threshold on the Texas Success

Initiative (TSI) Assessment unless they are otherwise exempt. If students do not meet

this threshold, they may be referred to Adult Basic Education classes, which are non-

credit and fee-based, before they are eligible to enroll in college coursework. You can

learn more about this requirement at http://www.thecb.state.tx.us/.

The Common App and Apply Texas are two widely used application processes for

four-year colleges and universities. The Common App is used by hundreds of colleges

throughout the United States, and Apply Texas allows students to apply for admis-

sion to any Texas public university, as well as to participating community and private

colleges. To learn more about which schools accept these applications, application

deadlines, and additional information visit the individual sites:

• Common App: www.commonapp.org

• Apply Texas: www.applytexas.org

It is necessary to visit individual websites, or contact the schools directly, to verify the

most current application procedures because admissions requirements can vary from

school to school.

Financial AidThe costs associated with higher education can be daunting for parents, families and

students. However, being aware of financial aid opportunities that are at your disposal

can help ease your concerns. Each university or college has their own financial aid

program, which may include grant and scholarship opportunities, and there are also

opportunities to obtain financial aid through the state and federal government, non-

profit and private organizations.

You should submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), as it will

make your student eligible for the largest source of financial aid available. The applica-

tion becomes available in early January, but deadlines differ by program. You will want

to submit the FAFSA as early as possible to make sure that you can take advantage of

as many aid opportunities as possible.

There are several ways to file the FAFSA:

• Online at www.fafsa.gov.

• You can download or order a paper FAFSA.

• Ask the financial aid office at your student’s college or career school if it can be

filed there.

Here is a brief look at financial aid opportunities and when you should fill out the

FASFA from the Federal Student Aid website:

High School TimelineIt is important to plan ahead for higher education while your child is still in high

school. In order to apply to a four-year university or college, your child will need to

take the SAT and/or ACT exam, typically during their junior year of high school. You

also should be aware of the admissions requirements of the program(s) your child

may wish to attend, so that they will be sure to fulfill all prerequisites during high

school. For example, some universities may require more science or math course cred-

its than your child’s high school requires as the minimum. Your child may also need to

take elective courses to be adequately prepared for college.

PREPARING FOR POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION cont.

AID PROGRAM DEADLINE INFORMATION

Federal and State student aid For the 2013–14 year, you can apply between Jan. 1, 2013, and June 30, 2014. However, there are a few first come, first served federal student aid programs, so be sure to apply as soon as you can. You can also find state deadlines at www.fafsa.gov.

College or career school aid Check the school’s website or contact its financial aid office. School deadlines are usually early in the year (often in Feb-ruary or March). Furthermore, many schools will offer work-study programs, which place students into part-time jobs or

paid internships as a form of financial assistance.

Other financial aid Some programs, other than government or school aid, require that you file the FAFSA. For instance, you cannot get certain private scholarships unless you are eligible for a Federal Pell

Grant – and you cannot find out whether you are eligible for a Pell Grant unless you file a FAFSA. If the private scholarship’s application deadline is in early to mid – January, you will need

to submit your FAFSA before that deadline.

Source: http://studentaid.ed.gov/fafsa


Here is an example of a timeline that can help students stay on track to obtaining an

advanced degree or certification:

Freshman and Sophomore Years• Talk with your assigned guidance coun-

selor about taking college preparatory

courses and exploring higher education

options.

• Start getting involved in extra-curricular

activities and keep a record of involve-

ment.

• Register and take the Preliminary SAT

(PSAT).

• Schedule a college tour of an area college

to get a feel for what college might be

like. These tours are free and you can call the admissions office to schedule a tour

at a time that works well for you.

Junior Year• Work with your guidance counselor to establish a list of the higher education op-

tions that you are interested in. It may be helpful to consider how long it usually

takes students to graduate from that school. You can find more information on

college completion rates by campus at completecollege.org.

• Begin researching scholarship and financial aid opportunities.

• Register and take the SAT and/or ACT exams.

• If possible, visit the individual campuses that you will be applying to.

Senior Year• August – September

» Narrow down school options and create a list of application deadlines and

required materials, including scholarship and financial aid deadlines, essays,

letters of recommendation and transcripts.

» Register or retake SAT and/or ACT exam if necessary.

» Begin thinking about who to request your letters of recommendation from.

» Request transcripts from your high school.

• October – November

» Draft any required college admissions or scholarship essays.

» Secure letters of recommendation if required. It is best to request letters of

recommendation at least one to two months in advance of the application

deadline. This allows the recommender time to complete and submit a quality

recommendation.

» Ensure that your transcripts are accurate.

• December – January

» Final application dates for many schools. However, note that early decision

applications are typically due in November.


• February – March

» College acceptance letters begin to arrive.

» Parents need to file taxes to prepare for filling out the FAFSA. Remember to

complete the FAFSA by the priority deadline.

• April – May

» Review your admissions information and submit any required materials to

the college or program of your choice. This may include housing information,

final transcripts, a potential deposit, etc.

METHODOLOGYGLOSSARYAPPENDIX


Guide OrganizationThe school profiles are organized by zones. These zones were developed by group-

ing high school feeder patterns into geographically meaningful areas. Within each

zone, schools are organized by grade level: elementary schools, middle schools, and

high schools. This allows parents to view school profiles that are located in the same

area, and better understand how local schools are performing in comparison with one

another.

School ProfilesThe schools profiled in this guide include all Dallas ISD public schools, including

magnet campuses, and charter schools located in the same zip codes as the district

schools. Disciplinary Alternative Education Programs and private schools are exclud-

ed from the school profiles. All contact information and data from the Campus Profile

and Report Card sections come directly from the Texas Education Agency. Note that

while the CHILDREN AT RISK Graduation Rate utilizes data from the Texas Education

Agency, it is specifically calculated by CHILDREN AT RISK. See the definitions below

for further clarification.

School Rankings and Letter GradesThe numerical rankings and letter grades

come from CHILDREN AT RISK’s 2013 Pub-

lic School Rankings. To rank public schools

across Texas, CHILDREN AT RISK compiles

and analyzes the latest data collected by

the Texas Education Agency. CHILDREN AT

RISK utilizes a diverse array of indicators,

holding schools accountable for perfor-

mance on standardized testing in addition

to other measures such as performance on

college entrance exams, participation in ad-

vanced coursework, and graduation rates.

Much like the methodology used by other institutions to rank higher education pro-

grams (e.g., MBA programs and law schools), CHILDREN AT RISK’s method uses the

z-score statistic to standardize the data compared to all campuses across the state

and compute a ranking.

• SCHOOL RANKINGS: CHILDREN AT RISK’s 2013 Public School Rankings, ranked

a total of 7,070 schools across the State. Each school’s profile will include their

ranking out of the total number of schools ranked for that grade level in Texas.

» State Ranking: Individual School Ranking / Total Schools Ranked for that

Grade Level Across the State

• LETTER GRADES: All schools were assigned a letter grade, based on their weight-

ed composite z-score. In order to create cut-off scores for each letter grade, dum-

my schools were created that represent the minimum performing school for each

Methodology


letter grade level. The dummy schools

were put into the rankings calculations

to see what their z-scores would be as

compared to the included schools, and

these z-scores were used as the cut-offs

for each letter grade. Once schools were

assigned a general letter grade, A, B,

and C grades were further differentiated

into plus / minus grades. The range of

z-scores for each letter grade was di-

vided evenly into thirds. The top third of

z-scores became “plus” grades and the

bottom third of z-scores became “minus” grades. In this guide, you will see the

following grades: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D, F, or Not Available (NA).

The IndicatorsCAMPUS PROFILE:

• Race/Ethnicity: The percentage of students in each category of ethnicity or race.

• Economically Disadvantaged Students: The percentage of students that are eco-

nomically disadvantaged, i.e., coded as eligible for free or reduced-pric lunch or

eligible for other public assistance.

• Total Enrollment: The total number of students enrolled at that campus.

• Special Education Students: The percentage of students served by programs for

students with disabilities.

• Student - Teacher Ratio: The number of students at the school divided by the

number of teachers at the school. This indicator represents the number of stu-

dents for every one teacher at the school.

PERFORMANCE INDICATORS:

• Advanced Courses: The percentage of students in grades 9-12 who received credit

for at least one advanced course (including Advanced Placement, International

Baccalaureate, dual Enrollment, and others).

• CHILDREN AT RISK Graduation Rate: The percentage of first time freshmen who

graduated from any public high school in Texas within four, five, or six years of

entering ninth grade.

• Average Class Size: The average number of students in a 3rd grade classroom at

that campus. The Texas Education Agency defines the allowable class size limit

for grades kindergarten through four to be 22 pupils, though campuses may re-

quest an exception.

• Math Gains Score: The average gain or loss on normal curve equivalent score on

all Math state standardized tests taken by students at a particular campus, com-

pared to the same students’ performance on all Math state standardized tests the

year before. The gains score is only calculated for students who took tests at the

same campus for two consecutive years.

• Reading Gains Score: The average gain or loss on normal curve equivalent score

on all Reading state standardized tests taken by students at a particular campus,

compared to the same students’ performance on all Reading state standardized

CHILDREN AT RISK utilizes a diverse

array of indicators, holding schools accountable for

performance


tests the year before. The gains score is only calculated for students who took

tests at the same campus for two consecutive years.

• SAT Score: The average score for all students taking the Scholastic Aptitude Test

(SAT).

• Graduates Taking SAT/ACT: The percentage of graduates that have taken either

the ACT or the SAT college admissions exam.

• STAAR Advanced Math: The percentage of 4th or 8th grade students who

achieved “Level III-Advanced” on the Mathematics section of the State of Texas

Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) examination.

• STAAR Advanced Reading: The percentage of 4th or 8th grade students who

achieved “Level III-Advanced” on the English/Language Arts (ELA) section of the

State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) examination.

• TAKS Commended Math: The percentage of 10th grade students who achieved

“Commended Performance” on the Mathematics section of the Texas Assessment

of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) examination.

• TAKS Commended Reading: The percentage of 10th grade students who achieved

“Commended Performance” on the English/Language Arts (ELA) section of the

Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) examination.

The Performance ScaleTo classify performance on the Report Card, statewide data was used to calculate

quartiles for each indicator.

• 3+ Above Average: The school’s indicator for that category scored in the top 25%

statewide.

• 3 Average: The school’s indicator for that category scored in the middle 50%

statewide.

• 3- Below Average: The school’s indicator scored in the bottom 25% statewide.

Any field labeled “NA” indicates that data was unavailable from the Texas Education

Agency at the time of publication.

School AssetsIn September 2013, CHILDREN AT RISK conducted a survey to identify the different

programs, or “school assets,” available on individual campuses. An online survey was

emailed to the school principal designated in the Texas Education Agency’s Texas

Education Directory. The survey was emailed three times, and if no response was

gathered CHILDREN AT RISK staff members conducted follow-up phone calls to the

individual schools. During those calls, school asset information was collected from a

variety of school personnel, including, but not limited to, office managers, assistant

principals, and school counselors.

METHODOLOGY cont.


The school assets that appear in this guide were selected based on information

gathered through an online parent survey, a series of three parent focus groups,

and information reported in the school survey. While schools were asked to

report whether or not they were a magnet school campus, the magnet program

identification that appears in the school profiles was generated from the lists on the

district’s website. School assets included in the elementary, middle and high school

profiles are as follows:

• Art Classes

• After School Program

• Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), College/Dual

Credit Options

• Athletic/Sports Programs

• Before School Program

• College Counseling

• Music Classes

• Pre-k Program (Full Day)

• Pre-k Program (Half Day)

It is important to note that the school asset information has been self-reported by

a school representative or staff member, and is subject to change at any time. This

survey was viewed as an opportunity for schools to share additional information

about the programs available on their campuses. CHILDREN AT RISK understands

that not all schools had the time, or the resources to complete this survey.

If you are a school administrator and believe that your school’s asset data is incorrect

or has not been included in this guide, please visit TexasSchoolGuide.org to update

this information.

CHILDREN AT RISK will make every effort to include updated and current school as-

set data at TexasSchoolGuide.org and in the next edition of Texas School Guide: A

Parent’s Roadmap to Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools.


Glossary of TermsHere is a list of terms that appear in Texas School Guide: A Parent’s Roadmap to

Success in Dallas ISD Area Public Schools that may be confusing or new to parents.

Please contact us to let us know if you find any other terms confusing and we will be

happy to consider defining them in future editions.

Advanced Placement Courses (AP): These rigorous courses are a part of the Ad-

vanced Placement Program (AP Program) and are offered at many high schools. AP

Courses are taught by highly qualified teachers, offer college-level curriculum, and

culminate with an AP Exam. Some colleges accept high scores on AP Exams to fulfill

college course credits.

Charter School (Charter): Charter schools are public schools that operate indepen-

dently of local school districts. They are tuition-free and open to any student within

a specified region that wishes to apply, but frequently use a lottery system for enroll-

ment due to high demand.

Early Education (EE): The Texas Education Agency reports the grade levels that are

represented at each school. Early Education (EE) is a grade level for students be-

tween the ages of zero and five who have not been placed in pre-kindergarten (PK)

or kindergarten (KG). This includes students in Head Start programs who do not meet

the requirements for state funds.

International Baccalaureate (IB): The IB Program is a rigorous, focused curriculum

for juniors and seniors in high schools. It offers advanced coursework and, similar to

AP, involves subject tests leading to the IB Diploma. The IB Program is recognized by

many universities throughout the world.

Magnet Schools / Programs: Magnet programs have curriculum that is aligned to a

particular focus area, such as Science Technology Engineering Mathematics (STEM),

performing arts, leadership, or certain career paths. These programs require an ap-

plication, and may be selective or use a lottery system.

Montessori: Montessori refers to a particular teaching method that focuses on bring-

ing out the natural interests of a child, in contrast to a more uniform teaching method.

Nontraditional Public School: For the purpose of this guide, the nontraditional public

school label includes schools that offer a specialized curriculum or are designed to

meet the needs of a special student population. This includes alternative schools and

programs.

Post-Secondary Education: Post-secondary education refers to various educational

tracks a student can engage in after high school, including two-year colleges, career

and technical trade schools and four-year universities and colleges.


Traditional Public School: For the purpose of this guide, the traditional public school

label includes all district (i.e., non-charter) schools that offer “traditional” coursework

to the general student populations. Traditional public schools include schools that

house magnet programs. These schools are typically “neighborhood schools” that

students are zoned to based on their home addresses.

At CHILDREN AT RISK we have taken our annual Public School Rankings and transformed the data into a guiding tool for parents. Texas School Guide allows parents to gauge the true quality of their public school options by searching for schools based on location, grade level, program options, school type, and CHILDREN AT RISK letter grade. If you are unhappy with how your child’s school is performing, don’t forget to visit our Parent Action Guides to find out what steps you can take to ensure your child receives the best education possible. Remember that none of this is possible without YOU - the parents! Please contact us if you want to participate in a parent workshop and learn more about the information in this guide. We also encourage everyone to provide feedback on this project by visiting TexasSchoolGuide.org or contacting CHILDREN AT RISK directly at: CHILDREN AT RISK3625 N.
