Summary

Veterans Hill Elementary is a PK-5 school in Round Rock, TX, serving 708 students as part of the Hutto Independent School District (Isd), and it has recently experienced a notable decline in overall performance, dropping from a 67th percentile ranking in 2024-2025 to a 46th percentile in 2025-2026.

One of the most striking findings is the performance gap between Veterans Hill and nearby schools in the Round Rock Independent School District (Isd). For example, Linda Herrington Elementary (96th percentile) and Redbud Elementary (83rd percentile) achieve far higher results, with 3rd-grade math proficiency rates of 79% and 72%, respectively, compared to Veterans Hill’s 38%. This disparity highlights how district boundaries can shape outcomes, even for schools located just a few miles apart. Within the Hutto ISD, Benjamin Doc Kerley Elementary (57th percentile) has maintained a more stable 3-star rating, avoiding the sharp drop seen at Veterans Hill. Mathematics is a persistent weakness at Veterans Hill, with proficiency rates in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades all below district and state averages, while nearby Hutto Elementary shows stronger math performance in 5th grade (57.5% proficient).

Despite these challenges, there are some bright spots. Spanish-language STAAR Reading scores in 2024-2025 were a standout, with 4th graders achieving 60% proficiency—well above the district (36%) and state (34%) averages—suggesting that native-language instruction may be highly effective for Spanish-speaking students. Additionally, Veterans Hill’s per-student spending ($10,535) is higher than that of higher-performing peers like Linda Herrington ($8,080), raising questions about resource allocation. The school also has a history of strong support for African American students (78th percentile in 2023-2024) but has struggled more recently with Hispanic and low socio-economic status students. For parents, this data suggests that while Veterans Hill offers some effective programs, its overall performance and recent decline warrant careful consideration, especially when compared to the stronger outcomes available in the neighboring Round Rock ISD.

My daughter is in the 2nd grade. I'm not so sure this new school is challenging my daughter academically. She has no homework, they are cutting and pasting in the second grade, etc. I just dont feel this school is challenging or preparing her very much to compete with other kids her age level.
