Summary:

Zip code 76227, serving the communities of Aubrey, Cross Roads, and Oak Point, Texas, is home to 17 schools spanning elementary through high school, with a total enrollment of approximately 14,955 students across three major districts: Denton Independent School District (Isd), Aubrey Independent School District (Isd), and Prosper Independent School District (Isd).

The standout school in this area is Dan Christie Elementary from Prosper ISD, a 5-star school ranking in the 84th percentile statewide with only 10.24% of students economically disadvantaged. Within Aubrey ISD, Hl Brockett Elementary is a consistent high-performer at the 73rd percentile, while other Aubrey ISD elementary schools like Jackie Fuller Elementary (36th percentile) and Pete And Myra West Elementary (29th percentile) lag behind. Denton ISD schools show a wide performance range, from Union Park Elementary at the 65th percentile to struggling schools like Cross Oaks Elementary (11th percentile) and Providence Elementary (22nd percentile), both with high economic disadvantage rates around 53-55%.

Both high schools in the zip code boast strong graduation rates: Ray Braswell High School (Denton ISD) graduates 95.4% and Aubrey High School graduates 95.1%. A notable finding is the "Algebra I paradox" in middle schools: while advanced students achieve 82-100% proficiency on the Algebra I exam, general math proficiency for 6th and 7th graders at schools like Navo Middle can be as low as 5.49%. Additionally, spending does not correlate with performance—Providence Elementary spends the most per student ($10,802) but ranks low, while Union Park Elementary spends the least ($8,690) and performs better, highlighting that factors like teaching quality and community support matter more than budget alone.
