The highly rated Mansfield Independent School District
South East Arlington is zoned to the A-rated Mansfield Independent School District. “For me, it all revolves around schools,” Thor says. “I tell clients when they say, ‘I don’t care about schools,’ I say, ‘You do because one day you’re going to be selling your home, and if the schools aren’t schools where you’d want to be sending your child, think about what the next buyer’s going to think of that.’” Students in the neighborhood can attend Janet Brockett Elementary for preschool through fourth grade, Icenhower Intermediate School for fifth and sixth grade, James L. Coble Middle School for seventh and eighth and Timberview High School for ninth through twelfth. Janet Brockett, James L.
