Amos Elementary

Amos Elementary sits in the southern part of Arlington, a sprawling mid-cities community nestled between Dallas and Fort Worth where families tend to put down roots and stay. The school serves a tight-knit neighborhood and may be a good fit for families who value a smaller, community-centered environment and are open to supplementing at home or through tutoring, particularly in English and science where scores trail the state middle. Arlington itself offers plenty — sports, parks, and easy access to both major cities — and parents who are engaged and proactive tend to find ways to make it work at schools like this one.
