Summary

Castle Hills Elementary in Lewisville, TX, is a high-performing PK-5 school serving 604 students within the Lewisville Independent School District (Isd), consistently ranking in the top 3% of Texas elementary schools for nearly a decade. This school stands out as a true "pocket of excellence" in the district, with a statewide ranking in the 97th percentile—far surpassing nearby schools like Homestead Elementary (89th percentile) and others in the area that rank between the 47th and 68th percentile. For example, in 4th-grade math, Castle Hills achieved a 93.55% proficiency rate, compared to Homestead's 77.14% and the district average of just 53.57%, showing a dramatic performance gap of 30-40 percentage points over many neighbors.

What makes Castle Hills particularly interesting is that its success isn't driven by higher spending or smaller class sizes. The school spends $8,942 per student—significantly less than nearby Stem Academy At Polser Elementary ($12,107) or Hebron Valley Elementary ($11,080)—and has a higher student-teacher ratio of 16:1 compared to those schools' ratios of around 11.5:1. Instead, the school's exceptional performance likely stems from strong leadership, a culture of high expectations, and a highly supportive parent community. Even its small number of economically disadvantaged students perform in the 99th percentile statewide, showing the school effectively closes achievement gaps.

While Castle Hills has seen a slight dip from its peak ranking in the top 60 schools (99th percentile) a few years ago to its current 137th place (97th percentile), it remains an elite choice for families. The school's closest geographic neighbor, Stem Academy at Polser, is just 0.46 miles away but serves a different demographic and ranks in the 84th percentile, illustrating how school performance can vary dramatically within a small area. For parents seeking a school with consistent, top-tier academic results across all grades and subjects, Castle Hills Elementary is a standout option in the Lewisville area.
