Summary
Liberty Elementary in Flower Mound, TX, is a high-performing public school serving 574 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Lewisville Independent School District (Isd), consistently ranking in the top 6% of Texas elementary schools with a 5-star rating for nearly a decade. This school stands out for its exceptional mathematics program, where 5th-grade math proficiency rates (78.79%) significantly exceed both the district and state averages by over 31 percentage points, suggesting a particularly effective math curriculum. While Liberty is an excellent choice, it operates in a neighborhood of elite schools—nearby Wellington Elementary and Old Settlers Elementary both rank in the 98th percentile, making Liberty a strong "middle child" in a high-achieving family.
The school demonstrates notable strengths in serving students with special needs, ranking in the 96th percentile for special education services, which indicates a highly effective program. However, there is a contrasting weakness in its Gifted & Talented program, which dropped to the 41st percentile in recent years, suggesting the school may not be adequately challenging its highest-achieving students. Additionally, while the student population is predominantly affluent (only 6.97% qualify for free/reduced lunch), the school's support for low socio-economic status students showed significant volatility, dropping to the 15th percentile in 2024-2025 after being in the 92nd percentile just two years prior—though this may be influenced by the very small number of students in this group.
For parents comparing options, Liberty offers a well-rounded, top-tier education with a particular edge in math and special education, but families with gifted children might want to explore programs at nearby schools like Bluebonnet Elementary or Wellington Elementary, which consistently outperform Liberty in overall rankings. The school's success appears driven more by community factors like strong parental involvement and instructional quality rather than spending levels, as Liberty spends $10,715 per student—more than some higher-ranked neighbors but less than lower-ranked Flower Mound Elementary. Ultimately, Liberty is an outstanding school that provides a solid foundation, especially for students who thrive in math or need special education support.
