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 options vary from
district to district, parents do have alternatives to traditional neighborhood schools. When
considering other public school options, parents may consider charter schools as well as
magnet schools and programs. To figure out which school is best for your child, you should
research individual schools.
School choice is choosing a
school based on what
the school has to offer –
not on where you live.
What Are Neighborhood Schools?
A Neighborhood School is the school that a child is assigned to based on where their family lives. The
school district sets boundaries and attendance zones for all schools in the district and these boundaries
can change often. You should call your school or the district to confirm your neighborhood school before
enrolling.
What Are Charter Schools?
A Charter School is a public school that operates separately from local school districts. They are:
•Tuition-free and publicly funded by local, state, and federal dollars, and can receive private donations
•Open to any student within a specified region that wishes to apply
•Commonly required to use a lottery system to determine enrollment
Learn more about charter schools
•Entitled to greater flexibility than neighborhood schools (example: some charters may
in your area on PAGE 17!
have a longer school day or year)
What Are Magnet Schools/Programs (Programs and Schools of Choice)?
A Magnet School is a public school that is either run by a school district or a group of school districts.
These schools are called magnet schools because they attract students from other areas of the district.
In Fort Worth ISD, these schools and programs are called Programs and Schools of Choice. These
programs and schools offer:
•Curriculum that is aligned with a particular focus area (examples: Science Technology Engineering
Mathematics (STEM), performing arts, leadership, or certain career paths)
•A more intensive education in their focus area than traditional public schools
Some choice programs are located within neighborhood schools, while others are
“Schools of Choice” that have their own campus. In some cases, several programs
are housed together on one campus.
What Are Private Schools?
Find your future Program or
School of Choice in Fort Worth
ISD on PAGE 14!
A Private School is a school that is not supported by the government. Private schools receive their funding
from individuals or a private organization. They usually require students to pay tuition and complete an
application process that may include:
•Applications
•Admission tests
•Interviews
Private schools aren’t included in this
•Financial aid applications
Private schools can have a religious affiliation or be independent. Although this guide
does not profile private schools, they are one of the available options for parents.

Academic achievement isn’t the only important thing about your child’s school. Your student might be really
interested in art, or maybe music. If your child is in high school, you probably want him or her to have access
to a college counselor.

Transportation Options in Fort Worth ISD
Transportation can be a very important factor in finding the right school. You may have a conflicting work
schedule or morning appointments that prevent you from driving your child to school yourself. Whatever the
case, knowing your options is the first step to solving your transportation issues.
In Fort Worth ISD, students are eligible to ride the bus if they live within district boundaries and:
•Live two or more miles away from their neighborhood school, or the program or school of choice if they have been accepted, or
•Are a special education student between the ages of 3 and 21, who has disabilities that prevent them from using regular transportation

CHILDREN AT RISK
School Climate
One of the biggest concerns for many parents is their child’s school
climate. This includes the relationships between students and teachers,
general school atmosphere, front office staff interactions, prevalence of
bullying on a campus, safety precautions, and many other things.
Research identifies four main
categories of school climate:
1. Safety
2. Teaching and learning
3. Interpersonal relationships
4. Institutional environment
When you visit schools there are specific things you can look for that may help you learn more about the climate.
•Office staff (school secretary, office manager, etc.) are friendly and helpful to visitors and other parents
•Office staff (school secretary, office manager, etc.) are friendly,
encouraging, consoling and other appropriate interactions with
students who might be in the office
•Teachers are assisting and interacting positively with students in the hallways
•Teachers are assisting and interacting positively in their natural classroom environments
•Students are friendly with one another
•The school has an aspirational environment, such as posters on the walls with sayings that encourage students to “reach for the stars”, etc.
•There are safety precautions in place throughout the school, such as

day
to learn more!
•There are safe and clear resources for students with emotional, mental and physical disabilities, such as unobstructed ramps for wheelchair access
You can also ask specific questions that help you learn more about the school climate. These can be asked
over the phone or during an in person tour.
•How does the school provide parents information on their child’s behavior?
•Are there regular ways to communicate positive feedback?
•If you contact the school, how long does it usually take to get a response?
•What is the school’s policy on bullying?
•Are there any official policies in place that require parents to be notified of instances of bullying in their
students classroom?
•What policies are in place to reduce or stop drugs from being shared on school grounds?
•How does the school promote social and emotional development?
•What resources and trainings are available to teachers and staff to help them learn how to promote social and emotional student development?
•Are parents encouraged to have conversations with their teachers and school administrators if their children are struggling in school?
•How does the school encourage emotional and physical development for students with special needs?
•Are parents given information about Special Education and 504 Assessments in a timely manner?
Resources for Students with Special Needs
Resources for students with special needs, including Autism and learning
disabilities such as Dyslexia, can be a critical part of your child’s school
experience. Fort Worth ISD has a Special Education Department that
offers programming, information and services to families with students
who have special education needs. The Department provides support in
the delivery of all services as determined:
•By an Admission, Review, or Dismissal (ARD) Committee
•As stated in the Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals

Research Your Options
One of the most important things you can do when searching for a school is visiting! Here is a list of questions
to ask, as well as some key things to look for:
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?
•What strategies do teachers use to help students catch up if they are performing below
?
grade level?
•What services are available to students with special needs or learning disabilities, such as Dyslexia?
•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 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 parents given open access to classrooms to observe and participate on a reasonable basis, including those for children with special needs?
•Are the students well-behaved as they transition in the hallways and play outside?
12
CHILDREN AT RISK
•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?
•Do you notice easy to access accommodations for students with physical disabilities?
•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?
Once you have decided to research your school options, there are many different avenues you can explore. These
options are listed in further detail below.
Get involved in your neighborhood school
If you are not satisfied with your neighborhood school, you can start by simply getting involved in your school to
make the changes your student needs from within. For example, if you feel like your child’s neighborhood school
doesn’t provide an academically rigorous environment, start by asking questions.
As a parent at that school you have the right to find out why it is on the

Public Education Grant List, or why it scored a D or an F in the CHILDREN

AT RISK Rankings.
You can start by scheduling a meeting with a school administrator, or the
principal. If you don’t get the answers you need you can always reach out to
your School Board Representative. Find out more about how to do this in
the Parent Involvement Action Guide on page 19.

Transfer Options in Fort Worth ISD
Although a student’s neighborhood school is determined by their home address,
in Fort Worth ISD students can apply for transfer requests to other schools that
better match their needs or interests if they meet the requirements listed below.
All transfer requests are subject to availability and application deadlines. You
should contact the district directly to learn about the most current deadlines.
Do you have any questions
about transfer options?
Call: (817) 814-2311
It is also important to note that the transfer options listed in this section do not refer to the program and
schools of choice options, which are listed in a previous section. The two main ways to transfer from one
school to another school in Fort Worth ISD are:
1.Open Transfers: Initiated because of student/family needs
2.Public Education Grant (PEG) School Transfers: Initiated because of
the school’s performance
Open Transfers
Remember, students who
transfer from one school
to another school do not
become part of the new
school’s feeder pattern.
An open transfer needs to be submitted within the deadline established by
Fort Worth ISD. All transfers in Fort Worth ISD are subject to approval and
space availability. Students who transfer from one school to another school
do not become part of the new school’s feeder pattern. This will impact
students when they are transitioning from elementary to middle school or middle school to high school
because students will return to their neighborhood school after 5th or 8th grade. The typical transfer window
for elementary and secondary school transfers is the first three weeks of March.

Charter Schools in the Fort Worth Area
Charter schools can be good options for student success. Remember, these schools are not a part of Fort
Worth ISD, but they are still public schools. Most charter schools operate on a lottery system. This means
that the school uses a random selection process to pick its students. It might also be helpful to know:
•These schools require some kind of application
•Many applications can be submitted online, but the process depends on each school
•You should check with each school to see if they require additional information like supplemental documents or an interview/audition
•If your child is on a charter school’s waiting list, it may help to follow up with the school to let the school know that you are still interested if space becomes available
Charter schools must also adhere to the same Special Education and ADA law guidelines for children with
special education needs as traditional public schools. If you have any questions about this do not hesitate to
ask your school’s administrators.
We have included a short list of charter schools in the area to help you get started, but make sure to visit each
of the school’s websites to learn more about current deadlines and application procedures.

How Can I Get Involved at My Child’s School?
Parental involvement is a key factor in student success. Students with involved parents are more likely than
their peers with uninvolved parents to earn good grades, attend school regularly, have positive attitudes
about school, and behave appropriately. As a result, parents can help their children succeed by becoming
education advocates. 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. Advocating 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
•Find your School Board Representative
•Access services provided by community organizations
Stay up to date on your
student’s progress at
www.parentportal.fwisd.org!
Building Relationships
The first step to becoming an advocate for your child’s education is to form relationships with teachers,
counselors, coaches, and administrators at your child’s school. Forming these relationships early in your
child’s education will help you feel comfortable going to these people when questions come up.
If you have felt frustrated and do not understand the school system, or just have not had the opportunity to
form these relationships, here are some great ways to get started:
•You can attend school events, such as open houses, performances or award ceremonies.
•You can 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.
•You can join district groups, such as the School Health Advisory Council that focuses on
health and nutrition policies within the district.
•You can join parent groups or organizations at your child’s school.
•If your child has special needs or a learning disability, you can join a support group in
your community or school district, such as the Dyslexia Parent Education/Support group
sponsored by your school district.
•You can get involved in after school programs that your child is involved in.
•You can volunteer with the school or in your child’s classroom.
•You can vote in the School Board of Trustees election.
If you would like assistance learning how to get involved there are many community
organizations that are available to help. For example, AB Christian Learning Center works
with parents on how to get engaged in the school system. Visit the community resources list at the end of this
section for a list of organizations.
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 at parentportal.fwisd.org to identify
any problems early. On Parent Portal you have access to many school related indicators, including your
student’s grades, homework assignments, and teacher contact information.

CHILDREN AT RISK
Parent Groups and Organizations
Parent Teacher Associations (PTAs) and Parent Teacher Organizations
(PTOs) engage and empower parents to become advocates for their
children. Although these organizations have similar missions, the PTA
is connected to a local, state, or national association, 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 or a PTO, you can start one.
Some PTAs have Special and Gifted Education (SAGE) committees that provide an opportunity for families
and teachers of students who learn differently to share resources and friendship. For an example of this type
of committee, visit Richardson ISD’s SAGE PTA website at www.sageptarisd.com. If your school district does
not offer this type of committee, you can get involved to create 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 Texas PTA’s Director of Member Services, Mary Jo Burgess, at [email protected] or 1-800-TALKPTA, 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 planning a school fundraiser to raise money. Because every PTO is an independent
organization, bylaws vary by organization. Learn more about organizing a PTO at www.ptotoday.com.
Fort Worth ISD Board of Trustees
The Fort Worth ISD School Board includes nine trustees that are elected by residents of the individual
districts. Trustees have a variety of responsibilities including:
•Setting policies for the District
•Hiring the Superintendent of Schools
•Securing financing for the District
•Continuously evaluating school performance
Regular board meetings are open to the public and also televised live
on local television and streamed live from the district website. Notes
from the school board meeting, or “minutes”, can be reviewed in the
Superintendent's office in the administration building, 100 N. University
Drive. You can learn more about Fort Worth ISD’s board policy online at

Early Childhood Education (Ages 0 – 5)
Deciding on a childcare or preschool program for your child can be an overwhelming and
stressful task. There are many things to consider including:
•Quality
•Location
•Cost
•Hours of operation
Many of these issues can be easily resolved with a quick phone call or visit to the
program’s website. Judging quality should be a main concern for parents, and may
require 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 learn at a more rapid rate than at any other period in their
lives. Children who attend high quality early education programs are more likely to:
•Be ready for kindergarten
• Go to college
•Score well on standardized tests
•Have higher paying jobs as adults
A supportive and engaging early childhood education program is important because it starts infants and
toddlers on the path to lifelong success.
What are my Pre-Kindergarten Options in Fort Worth ISD?
Fort Worth ISD will transition to universal prekindergarten during the 2015-2016 school year, but that doesn’t
mean you don’t have additional options right now. During the 2014-2015 school year, Fort Worth ISD will
continue to offer prekindergarten to students who meet the federal guidelines, and will offer services on a
space-available basis to non-qualifying students. In order to meet federal eligibility requirements, a child must:
•Be four years old on or before September 1st of the school year (proof of birth date required) and reside
within the boundary lines of FWISD (proof of residence required); or
•Not speak or understand the English language and be classified as a LEP student by the Student Placement
Center; or
•Be eligible for National School Lunch Program (proof of family income required); or
For more information on Pre-K
•Be homeless (Letter from a shelter/hotel required as well as a completed Homeless
in Fort Worth, contact Fort
Questionnaire); or
Worth ISD School Leadership
•Qualify by Military (Proof such as military ID card is required); or
at 817-814-2310.
•Currently or previously be in foster care (letter from Texas Department of Family &
Protective Services is required)
If your child is not eligible under the federal guidelines, but you want to enroll your child in prekindergarten,
you should work with your neighborhood school principal and school leadership to help you find placement.
What Should You Look for in a Childcare or Pre-school Program?
Early childhood education programs, such as prekindergarten 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 developmentally appropriate instruction in vocabulary, early literacy, phonemic
awareness, math, and other areas that students often struggle with during their elementary years. In addition,
these programs also help children become more comfortable with the routines and structures of the school
environment.

CHILDREN AT RISK
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. You can view
records of the state’s inspections at www.dontbeinthedark.org/. In addition, the National Association 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.
In addition to the National Association for the Education of Young Children, there are also several other
organizations that provide childcare accreditation, including:
•National Association for Family Child Care Accreditation (NAFCC), www.nafcc.org
•National Early Childhood Program Accreditation (NECPA),
www.necpa.net
•National Accreditation Commission (NAC),
www.earlylearningleaders.org
You can contact Camp Fire Child
Care Resource and Referral if you
need help locating child care or
after school programs in the
North Texas area – (817) 831-2111
or [email protected]
How to Locate Childcare
If you need help locating childcare, there are resources available to help!
Childcare resource and referral agencies can help parents find information on locating quality child care in their
community. You can contact Camp Fire Child Care Resource and Referral if you need help locating child care or
after school programs in the North Texas area - (817) 831-2111 or [email protected].
After checking the program’s accreditation status and the state’s records for violations and compliance, you should
visit the center to gain a better sense of both the physical and emotional environment.
Visiting the Center
CHILDREN AT RISK recommends that you should spend 20-30 minutes talking to staff and watching classroom
routines (circle time, book reads, and center time are the best times to observe). Try not to visit during meal and nap
times, as you will be less likely to see the quality of learning activities between the staff and children.
Things to look for in the classroom’s physical environment:
•Classrooms and areas for children should be open and visible from any 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.
•A ge 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 3 years and older, look for evidence of writing (both children’s and teacher’s), sorting, and counting, as well as number, letter and word recognition. These are all good signs that the program provides academic enrichment activities.
Things to look for in the classroom’s 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 interact with 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! Early childhood
teachers should have formal training in the field of early childhood education. The
minimum requirements in the state of Texas are:
CHILDREN AT RISK
25
•A high school diploma or GED
•24 hours of pre-service training, and
•24 hours of annual continuing education for early childcare professionals. Suggested teacher
trainings include classes on curriculum, safety practices, first aid, and emergency preparedness.
The most common qualifications for early childhood instructors are:
•Bachelor’s Degree in Education (or another field) with a teaching certificate from the state specifying an Early Childhood qualification: teachers holding this degree and certification have
rigorous training in classroom management, curriculum, and at least one semester of practicum
in a classroom under the observation of a mentor teacher.
•Early Childhood Associates Degree or Child Development Associates Degree from an accredited program: teachers holding this degree have spent 2 years learning how to provide the appropriate environment and curriculum for children in their classroom.
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 available 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 playground in the morning and afternoon (weather permitting).
•Screen time (TV and Computers): It is recommended that screen time be limited to no more than 1 to 2 hours per day for children over 2 years of age, so make sure to ask how the school incorporates TV and computers.
•Childcare financial 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/

CHILDREN AT RISK
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
Applications
Most post-secondary programs require some kind of application. Community colleges have an open-door
admissions policy, which means that students are admitted regardless of previous 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 required to enroll in
developmental education or Adult Basic Education classes, which do not count towards a degree and are
fee-based, before they are eligible to enroll in college coursework. You can learn more about this requirement
at 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. Apply Texas
allows students to apply for admission 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
Two popular application types are:
•Apply Texas: www.applytexas.org
Financial Aid
www.commonapp.org
& www.applytexas.org
The costs associated with higher education can seem overwhelming for
parents, families and students. However, being aware of financial aid opportunities that are available 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, nonprofits, and private organizations.
You won’t know just how much money a college or university is able to offer you in financial aid until you
apply to the university and apply for financial aid! Financial aid can be used to cover expenses such as tuition,
dorm fees, meal plans, books, supplies, or other college fees.
You should submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), as it is will make your
student eligible for the largest source of financial aid available. The
application 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.
Don’t forget to submit the FAFSA
or TASFA at the beginning of the
year to be eligible for free money
for college!
Due to citizenship status, some students may need to use the Texas
Application for State Financial Aid (TASFA). Visit www.aie.org/
state/tasfa/ for more information. Students file their first FAFSA or TASFA form beginning their senior year
of high school and will re-file every year they intend to enroll in college courses.

How do I prepare for the FAFSA?
•The FAFSA asks for financial information, including balances of savings and The FAFSA is a free application.
If the website you are on asks
you to pay a fee to fill out the
FAFSA, you are not on the
official www.FAFSA.gov website!
checking accounts and information from tax forms.
•Filing your 2014 income taxes early and electronically enables you to use the IRS
Data Retrieval System when completing the 2015-2016 FAFSA. Using the IRS Data Retrieval system increases the accuracy of the information on the FAFSA. Errors in the FAFSA could delay your application.
•If you haven’t done your taxes, it’s okay to estimate the amounts.
•You can base your estimates on your last pay check stub for the 2014 calendar year. After you file your taxes you must update your FAFSA. You can update your
FAFSA with actual 2014 information by using the IRS Data Retrieval system or the information from your
tax return.
•Before your senior year, students can use the FAFSA4caster to get a sense of how much federal aid may be
available to you when you do apply. Visit www.studentaid.ed.gov/fafsa/estimate for more information.
How can I 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 FAFSA from the
Federal Student Aid website:
Federal
And State
Student Aid
For the 2014-2015 year, you can apply between Jan. 1, 2014, and June 30,
2015. 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 February 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 example, 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.

High School Timeline
It is important to plan ahead for higher education. 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 requirements during high school. For example, some universities may
require more science or math course credits 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.
30
CHILDREN AT RISK
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 counselor about taking college preparatory courses and exploring
higher education options
•Start getting involved in extra-curricular and volunteer activities and keep track of the number of hours spent on those activities
•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.
•Register for rigorous courses that will appropriately challenge you. Look at admissions requirements for various colleges to understand what coursework may be required. Not all high school graduation plans will fulfill college admissions requirements.
When picking a college, you
might want to consider how long it
usually takes to graduate. You can
find more information on college
completion rates by campus at
www.completecollege.org.
Junior Year
•Continue to participate in volunteer and extra-curricular activities as a way to explore potential career
interests.
•Continue to take rigorous courses.
•Work with your guidance counselor to establish a list of the higher education options that you are
interested in.
•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.
•Start working on your college application essays the summer before your senior year. Essay topics typically do not vary widely from year to year, check the application website for the essay prompt.
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 or TASFA. Remember to complete the FAFSA or TASFA by your intended college’s 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 tuition deposit, etc.
»» Check your email regularly and register for the college’s online portal, if they have one, to make sure you receive all information in a timely manner.

Glossary Of Terms
Glossary of Terms
Here is a list of terms that appear in Texas School Guide: Empowering Families to Succeed in Public
Education that may be confusing or new to parents. Please contact us at texasschoolguide@
childrenatrisk.org 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 Advanced 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 schools are public schools that operate independently 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 enrollment 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 between the ages of zero and five who
have not been placed in Pre-Kindergarten (PK) or Kindergarten (KG).
International Baccalaureate (IB): The IB Program is a rigorous, focused curriculum for juniors and seniors in highschools. 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.
Montessori: Montessori refers to a particular teaching method that focuses on bringing out the natural interests of a child, in contrast to a more uniform teaching method.
Neighborhood Public School: Traditional public schools, or neighborhood public schools, are schools that
students are zoned to based on their home addresses.
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 schools and four-year universities and colleges.
Programs and Schools of Choice (Also referred to as “Magnet”): 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 application,
and may be selective or use a lottery system. In Fort Worth ISD, these schools and programs are called
Programs and Schools of Choice.
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 address.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Where does the data in Texas School Guide come from?
All of the data that appears on the school profiles comes directly from the Texas Education Agency, or was
calculated using data from the Texas Education Agency. For example, demographic data and test scores
come directly from the Texas Education Agency, but the C@R graduation rate, Rankings, Letter Grades,
and Indexes were calculated using specific CHILDREN AT RISK formulas. You can read more about
this in the methodology section at the back of this guide. Information in the Action Guides comes from
a variety of sources, including school and district websites, online resources, community partners, and
CHILDREN AT RISK research. Visit the various links that are cited throughout this resource for a more in
depth look at the information.
2. What year is the data in Texas School Guide from?
The data used on the school profiles comes from the 2012-2013 school year. The information and
resources included in the Action Guides were created and/or updated in 2014, but may reflect general
school deadlines from the 2013-2014 school year.
3. Why isn’t my school included in this guide?
Texas School Guide only includes traditional public schools and charter schools that contain grades
between Kindergarten and 12th Grade. It does not include private schools or alternative schools.
If your school is a public school or a charter school that is not included, it may be a new school that
wasn’t included in 2012-2013 Texas Education Agency reports or it may be an early education campus
(CHILDREN AT RISK excludes EE-EE, EE-PK, and PK-PK campuses).
4. What is the “PEG” program?
In 1995, the Texas Legislature created the Public Education Grant (PEG) program [TEC §§29.201 29.205]. The PEG program permits parents whose children attend schools on the PEG list to request that
their children transfer to schools in other districts or other non-PEG schools within their district. A list of
PEG-designated schools is provided to districts annually. By February 1, districts must notify each parent
of a student in the district assigned to attend a school on the PEG list. Based on the February list, parents
may request a transfer for the following school year. (For example, the list provided to parents by February
1, 2014 allows for transfer requests for the 2014-15 school year).
5. What is a “PEG” school?
A school at which 50 percent or more of the students did not pass any of the state assessment subjects
in any two of the preceding three years (2013, 2012, or 2011), or a school that was rated Improvement
Required in 2013 or Academically Unacceptable in 2011, is included on the PEG List. Through the PEG
program, districts receive a slightly higher allocation of funding from the state for each PEG-transferred
student. Visit the Frequently Asked Question page for the PEG Program at www.ritter.tea.state.tx.us/
perfreport/peg_faq.html for additional information.
Examples where schools would appear on the current PEG list:
a. A school that was Academically Unacceptable in 2011;
b. A school with fewer than 50% of its students passing reading in 2011 and 2012;
c. A school with fewer than 50% of its students passing ELA in 2012 and fewer than 50% passing science in 2011.
6. Where can I find the most current “PEG” list?
The PEG list is released at the beginning of each year and can be found on the Texas Education Agency
Website. For the most recent list, visit www.ritter.tea.state.tx.us/perfreport/peg_faq.html.

7. What about transportation? If my student transfers, does the district provide transportation?
In Fort Worth ISD, students are eligible to ride the bus if they live within district boundaries and live
two or more miles away from their neighborhood school or the program or school of choice they have
been accepted to. Parents should reach out directly to the district and also to their school principals for a
definitive answer about PEG transportation.
8. What should I do if I think my child might have a special education need?
There are many different reasons that students can qualify for special education services, and public
schools are required to provide services to students who qualify. Visit page 9 to learn more about special
education opportunities within your school district and page 10 to find special education resources
available in your community.
9. What about school safety? How do I determine if a school has the right “climate”
for my student?
After the release of the first edition of Texas School Guide, many parents requested information about
school safety in the next version of the guide. In this edition, CHILDREN AT RISK has included ways that
you can identify a positive school climate, including questions you can ask, on page 9. CHILDREN AT
RISK has also included a report of discipline violations by campus at the back of this book so you can view
the number of violations per category (example: school related gang violence or controlled substances/
drugs). You can compare your school’s number to other schools in the district to get a sense of the school
climate.

Methodology
Methodology
Guide Organization
The school profiles are organized by grade level: elementary schools, middle schools and high schools. A
map is provided at the beginning of each grade level to help parents understand where schools are located
in comparison to one another. This allows parents to locate a school on the map and identify other nearby
schools to better understand how they are performing in comparison with one another.
School Profiles
The schools profiled in this guide include all Fort Worth public schools, including programs and
schools of choice, and charter schools located in the same zip codes as the district schools. Disciplinary
Alternative Education Programs and private schools are excluded from the school profiles. All contact
information and data from the Demographic Profile and Report Card sections comes directly from the
Texas Education Agency. 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, Indices, and Letter Grades
The numerical rankings and letter grades come from CHILDREN AT RISK’s 2014 Public School
Rankings, which utilize data from the 2012-2013 school year. To rank public schools across Texas,
CHILDREN AT RISK compiles and analyzes the latest data collected by the Texas Education Agency,
accessed through the Texas Academic Performance Reports system and direct requests. CHILDREN AT
RISK seeks to hold schools accountable for student performance on standardized testing in addition to
other measures such as graduation rates and improvement over time.
•School Ranking: CHILDREN AT RISK’s 2014 Texas Public School Rankings ranked a total of 7,614
schools across the state. Each school’s profile includes its individual rank out of the total number of schools ranked for that grade level in Texas.
•Achievement Index: The Achievement Index reflects raw performance in key achievement areas:
STAAR Reading- Advanced; STAAR Math- Advanced; and Graduation Rate.
•Performance Index: The Performance Index captures performance on the Student Achievement indicators using an analysis that controls for level of economic disadvantage. It is intended to measure the effectiveness of people and programs at a campus independent of differences in student demographics.
•Growth Index: The Growth Index captures improvement over time in standardized testing. It is composed of Gain Scores in Math and Reading.
•Letter Grades: All schools were assigned a letter grade based on their Composite Index. In this guide, you will see the following grades: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D, F, or Not Available (NA).
Campus Profile Indicators:
•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 request an exception.
•Economically Disadvantaged Students: The percentage of students that are economically disadvantaged, i.e., coded as eligible for free or reduced-price lunch or eligible for other public assistance.
•Mobility Rate: The percentage of students in membership at a school for less than 83% of the school year (i.e., has missed 6 or more weeks at a particular school).
•Student Diversity: The percentage of students in each category of ethnicity or race.
•Special Education Students: The percentage of students served by programs for students with disabilities.
104
CHILDREN AT RISK
Methodology
•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 students for every one teacher at the school.
•Total Enrollment: The total number of students enrolled at that campus.
Performance Indicators:
•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.
•Math Gain Score: Gains in student-level math performance from one year to the next, relative to other students with the same past score on STAAR Math exams. The campus level scores are averages of the student level normal curve equivalent gains, where a student with an average gain would have a normal curve equivalent score of 50.
•Reading Gain Score: Gains in student-level reading performance from one year to the next, relative to other students with the same past score on STAAR Reading exams. The campus level scores are averages of the student level normal curve equivalent gains, where a student with an average gain would have a normal curve equivalent score of 50.
•Average SAT Score: The average score for all students taking the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT).
•Students Passing AP/IB Exams: The percentage of students with at least one AP or IB exam score at or above the criterion (3 on AP or 4 on IB). These refer to the results of the College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP) examinations and the International Baccalaureate’s (IB) Diploma Program examinations. High school students may take one or more of these examinations and may receive advanced placement or credit upon entering college.
•STAAR Advanced Math: The percentage of students scoring at Level III Advanced on the STAAR Math exam (sum of all grades tested). This standard indicates that students are well prepared for postsecondary success.
•STAAR Advanced Reading: The percentage of students scoring at Level III Advanced on the STAAR Reading exam (sum of all grades tested). This standard indicates that students are well prepared for postsecondary success.
The Performance Scale
To classify performance on the Report Card, statewide data was used to calculate percentile ranks for each
indicator.
•Above Average: The school’s indicator for that category scored in the top 25% statewide.
•Average: The school’s indicator for that category scored the middle
50% statewide.
•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.

AT RISK 2014 Public School
Rankings methodology at
TexasSchoolGuide.org.
During the 2013-2014 school year, 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. If no response was gathered
in the email survey, 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.
CHILDREN AT RISK
105
Methodology
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. School
assets included in the elementary, middle, and high school profiles are as follows:
• Art Classes
• 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)
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 intended 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.
Innovative Resources
CHILDREN AT RISK recognizes that there are many organizations in the community that are working
to improve the experience that students have in Fort Worth public schools. These organizations and
their services have been labeled “innovative resources” for the purpose of Texas School Guide. Because
often times these “innovative resources” cannot be reflected in numerical data, CHILDREN AT RISK
has worked with community partners to gather information on organizations working directly in
schools to provide services that fall under the following categories: after school programming, college
access, educational services (tutoring, reading help, etc.), parent involvement, school health and social
emotional health.
106
CHILDREN AT RISK
Methodology
This data may reflect the schools that organizations were working in during the previous school year
(2013-2014) and parents should make every effort to contact the organizations or the schools directly
to confirm that the organizations are still working on each campus. The following organizations are
included in Texas School Guide: Empowering Families to Succeed in Public Education:
