ARLINGTON
SCHOOLS:
Currently, more than 62,000 students are enrolled in the Arlington ISD, making it the 9th largest school district in Texas. The AISD is also the largest employer in Arlington and the third largest in Tarrant County, with a staff of close to 8,000.
Arlington schools prepare students for future employment and higher education through challenging academic programs and extra-curricular activities. Eighty percent of the student body is on an advanced education track, with about 12 percent of those students enrolled in honors courses. The AISD is also home to an award-winning and acclaimed special-education program, which focuses on academic success as well as the development of life skills. A highly qualified, culturally diverse teaching staff supports all academic and extra-curricular programs.
To keep pace with Arlington's rapid growth, the AISD has opened 17 new elementary campuses, two high schools and three junior highs since 1989. The AISD now includes 50 elementary schools, 12 junior highs, six high schools, a pre-kindergarten campus and five alternative schools.
Arlington also boasts one of the lowest tax rates among large school districts in Texas, with a current rate of $1.755 per $100 of assessed value. The operating cost-per-pupil is $6,997. Additionally, the district spends considerably less than the state averages on instructional leadership, school leadership, central administration, and other administrative operating costs.
The AISD is home to 17 National Merit, National Achievement and National Hispanic Scholars Seniors, and the class of 2005 earned more than $13.6 million in scholarship money. In addition, the AISD is home to the 2004-2005 5A one-act play champions, the first eight-time Texas high school swimming champion, and three of the musical groups selected to perform at the Texas Music Educators Association conference this spring. Our fine arts program was named one of the top 100 in the nation, and our generous faculty, staff and students raised more money for tsunami relief efforts than any other school district or school nationwide more than $54,000.
