Lida Hooe Elementary

Lida Hooe Elementary sits in the Oak Cliff area of southwest Dallas, a culturally rich, predominantly Latino neighborhood with deep roots and a strong sense of community identity. The school serves families who are part of a tight-knit local fabric, though its academic scores currently fall below state averages — something families considering enrollment will want to weigh carefully. For parents who are deeply embedded in the neighborhood and value proximity and community connection, it's worth having an honest conversation with the school about support resources and what's being done to help students grow in reading and math.
