A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.

With about 17 teachers, COMMUNITY BASED PK has a student/teacher ratio of about 28:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1.

Operating under the Arlington Independent School District (AISD) umbrella, this program is designed to offer a structured, school-based environment for young children, typically focusing on foundational literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional skills to prepare them for success in elementary school.
The school is situated in a central area of Arlington and functions as part of a broader network of community-based early learning sites. Its mission is to bridge the gap in early education by providing accessible, high-quality instruction that aligns with state early learning standards.
