Norwood Elementary

Norwood Elementary sits in Burleson, a fast-growing suburb just south of Fort Worth where you get a genuine small-town feel without being far from the city. The school lands right in the middle of the pack overall, but its science program is a real bright spot, outperforming nearly three-quarters of Texas elementary schools — a nice draw for families who want their kids building strong STEM foundations early. It's a solid neighborhood school in a community that's attracting plenty of young families looking for affordable space, good Texas weather, and easy access to the DFW Metroplex.
