E Ray Elementary

E Ray Elementary sits in the Everman community on Fort Worth's south side, a tight-knit area where families tend to put down roots and stay. The school serves a largely working-class neighborhood, and while test scores are below the state middle, it's the kind of close community school where staff know kids by name. Families who value a smaller, relationship-driven school environment — and who are active in supplementing learning at home or through tutoring — tend to find a good fit here.
