The city of Cedar Hill, Texas is home to 7 elementary schools, all of which are part of the Cedar Hill Independent School District (ISD), except for Life School Cedar Hill, which is a public charter school. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities within the Cedar Hill community.
Among the elementary schools in Cedar Hill, Cedar Hill Collegiate Prep stands out as the top-performing school, consistently ranking among the top 25% of elementary schools in Texas over the past 3 years and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students significantly outperform the district and state averages on STAAR reading, math, and science assessments. Another school showing promise is Lakeridge Elementary, which has seen improvements in its STAAR scores over the past 2 years, particularly in 4th and 5th grade reading.

Schools like Highlands Elementary, Plummer Elementary, and Waterford Oaks Elementary have proficiency rates well below the state average on STAAR assessments. The lone charter school, Life School Cedar Hill, also performs below the state average on most metrics, in contrast to the strong performance of Cedar Hill Collegiate Prep.
