District-Level NCES Analysis

NEWMAN INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF ARLINGTON operates 7 public schools serving 2,874 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 other, 1 middle, 1 elementary schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 2,970 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Tarrant County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $9,406 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 1.4% local, 87.6% state, and 11.0% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. The district's equity score — 34/100, ranked #819 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 2 of 7 schools offering Advanced Placement (4 AP courses district-wide), a 276.2:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 19.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 44.7% African American, 24.6% Hispanic or Latino, 20.1% White across the district's schools.

Newman International at Cedar Hill accounts for 30.2% of all NEWMAN INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF ARLINGTON student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means NEWMAN INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF ARLINGTON-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015).

Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
