Summary

West Cypress Hills Elementary in Spicewood, TX, serves 591 students from Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the highly-regarded Lake Travis Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 97th percentile statewide. The school consistently earns a 4-star rating and has shown strong improvement, climbing from the 63rd percentile in 2021-2022 to the 84th percentile in 2025-2026. However, it is the lowest-ranked elementary school within its district, with peers like Lake Pointe Elementary and Rough Hollow Elementary earning 5-star ratings and ranking in the 93rd to 99th percentile. This creates a notable performance gap, particularly in mathematics, where West Cypress Hills lags behind the district average in every grade level—for example, only 57.45% of 5th graders met math standards compared to the district's 72.51%.

Despite these challenges, the school has standout strengths. In 5th grade science, West Cypress Hills outperformed the entire district, achieving 53.97% proficiency versus the district's 44.76% and the state's 29.57%. The school also excels with its Multi-Racial student population, ranking 1st out of 975 schools statewide in 2024-2025. This suggests targeted, effective support for diverse learners. Interestingly, the school's performance is more comparable to top schools in the neighboring Dripping Springs Independent School District (Isd), such as Dripping Springs Elementary, than to its Lake Travis peers, highlighting the exceptionally competitive environment within the district.

It is important to note that West Cypress Hills serves a predominantly affluent community, with only 7.95% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This contrasts sharply with nearby Spicewood Elementary, which is in the lower-performing Marble Falls Independent School District (Isd) and serves a much higher percentage of low-income students (44.52%). This stark difference underscores how district boundaries can shape educational opportunities. While West Cypress Hills is a solid school with clear strengths in science and support for specific student groups, families should be aware of the math proficiency gap and the school's position as a strong performer in a top-tier district, rather than a top performer within it.
