Summary

Forest Vista Elementary is a public elementary school in Flower Mound, Texas, serving 568 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Lewisville Independent School District. This exceptional school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Texas, maintaining a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade and demonstrating exceptional academic performance across diverse student subgroups.

Forest Vista Elementary's academic achievements are truly impressive. The school's STAAR test scores significantly outperform the district and state averages, with 87.5% of 5th-grade students achieving proficiency in Reading, compared to 70.17% for the district and 57.83% for the state. Additionally, the school ranks in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools for Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students, showcasing its commitment to equity and inclusive practices. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.8 to 12.1, likely contributes to its academic success.

While Forest Vista Elementary outperforms many nearby schools, some other Lewisville ISD schools, such as Bluebonnet Elementary and STEM Academy at Donald Elementary, also demonstrate strong academic performance and could provide valuable insights. The school's performance in STAAR Mathematics, particularly in 4th and 5th grades, presents an opportunity for improvement, and the growing population of students from low-income families may require additional resources and support to address their unique needs.

Open Quote This school has steadily declined in recent years. The administration does NOT set a good example of how to lead and treat other people. They run the place like a prison camp and the assistant principal behaves like a prison warden. There are many other high quality elementary schools nearby. I recommend choosing one of those instead of FVE. Close Quote
