Summary

Union Hill Elementary is a PK-5 school in Round Rock, TX, serving 602 students as part of the Round Rock Independent School District (Isd), a highly-rated district where the school itself has experienced a significant and concerning decline over the past six years.

Union Hill’s most urgent challenge is in mathematics, where proficiency rates in 2025-2026 were roughly half the state average—just 26% in 3rd grade, 22.5% in 4th grade, and 25% in 5th grade. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like Teravista Elementary (1.5 miles away), which posted a 73.6% proficiency rate in 5th-grade math. Even more telling, Caldwell Heights Elementary, less than a mile away and serving a similar percentage of students from low-income households, outperforms Union Hill in every subject and grade level—for example, 45.5% vs. 26% in 3rd-grade math. This gap suggests that factors beyond student demographics are driving Union Hill’s struggles. The school’s overall state ranking has dropped from the 54th percentile to the 18th percentile in just six years, a multi-year freefall not seen in most neighboring schools.

Interestingly, Union Hill spends more per student ($11,479) than high-performing neighbors like Linda Herrington Elementary ($8,080) and has a lower student-teacher ratio (12.6:1), indicating that resources alone are not the issue. The school does show relative strength in its bilingual program, with Spanish-language test scores often matching or exceeding district averages. However, it struggles to serve all students effectively, particularly in math and for certain subgroups. For parents considering this school, the most important takeaway is that while Union Hill has adequate funding and small class sizes, its academic program—especially in math—is not producing the results seen at comparable nearby schools like Caldwell Heights.
