Patrick Elementary

Patrick Elementary sits in the western edge of Grand Prairie, a sprawling, working-class city that straddles the Dallas-Fort Worth divide and has a strong sense of community pride despite often flying under the radar. The school's math scores stand out relative to its other subjects, which may signal some genuine strengths worth building on, but families focused on English and science benchmarks may want to stay closely involved with their child's progress. It's a school that could be a good fit for families who are engaged and looking to be active partners in their child's education, especially in a neighborhood where parent involvement can make a real difference.
