Carter Park Elementary

Carter Park Elementary serves a working-class neighborhood on Fort Worth's south side, where families are closely tied to the school and community roots run deep. Academically, the school faces real challenges — test scores in English, math, and science rank among the lowest in Texas — making it a school that would benefit from additional resources and support. Families in the area who are weighing their options may want to explore tutoring programs, after-school enrichment, or district choice programs to help supplement their child's learning experience.
