Summary

Rough Hollow Elementary in Spicewood, TX, is a high-performing K-5 school serving 702 students as part of the top-ranked Lake Travis Independent School District (Isd), consistently earning a 95th percentile state ranking and offering a strong academic foundation in an affluent community.

Rough Hollow shines brightest in mathematics, with 4th-grade STAAR proficiency reaching 86.15%—well above the district average of 70.67% and the state average of 49.28%. Even more impressive, the school has achieved 100% proficiency in 6th-grade math for four consecutive years, likely reflecting a robust advanced math program. However, 5th-grade science is a relative weakness, with only 36.22% of students proficient in 2024-2025, below nearby schools like Serene Hills Elementary (68.7%) and West Cypress Hills Elementary (53.97%). While Rough Hollow is a solid choice, it is outperformed by Lake Pointe Elementary, just 7 miles away, which leads in nearly every subject despite serving a similarly affluent population. This suggests school-specific factors like instructional strategies or culture drive the difference.

Encouragingly, Rough Hollow is on an upward trajectory, improving from the 86th percentile in 2021-2022 to the 95th percentile in 2025-2026. Recent data shows a remarkable turnaround for Special Education students, jumping from the 69th to the 92nd percentile, and Hispanic students rising from the 77th to the 94th percentile. These gains indicate effective interventions and a growing commitment to inclusivity. While the school’s overall scores are heavily influenced by its affluent majority, and support for its small population of economically disadvantaged students has been volatile, the positive momentum across subgroups makes Rough Hollow an excellent, improving option for families in the Lake Travis area.
