Summary:
The five elementary schools in zip code 76262, serving grades PK through 5 in the Roanoke and Trophy Club areas, are all part of the highly-rated Northwest Independent School District (Isd), which holds a 4-star rating and ranks in the 71st percentile statewide.
There is a clear performance hierarchy among these schools, strongly linked to socioeconomic factors. Samuel Beck Elementary and Lakeview Elementary are the standout high-performers, consistently ranking in the top 6-10% of Texas elementary schools with 5-star ratings. Both have very low free/reduced lunch rates (around 5.5%), and Lakeview posted the highest single-subject score in the dataset with a 93.06% proficiency rate in 4th Grade Math. Wayne A. Cox Elementary is a strong mid-tier performer, ranking in the 93rd percentile in 2024-2025, though its projected ranking dips to the 85th percentile. In contrast, Roanoke Elementary and J Lyndal Hughes Elementary serve more economically diverse populations (32.62% and 42.11% free/reduced lunch, respectively) and rank significantly lower, in the bottom 20-40% of the state. Notably, Roanoke Elementary is the only school showing positive momentum, with its projected ranking improving from the 81st to the 84th percentile.
Key takeaways include that higher spending per student does not guarantee success—J Lyndal Hughes Elementary spends $10,004 per student but is the lowest-ranked school, while Lakeview Elementary spends a similar amount and is a top performer. Additionally, three schools (Cox, Beck, and Lakeview) offer advanced math acceleration, with 100% of their students passing the 7th Grade STAAR Math exam. Finally, 5th Grade Science is a relative weakness across all schools, with proficiency rates in the 50-60% range, even at the top-performing campuses.
