Summary:
Zip code 78735 is home to a single school, Oak Hill Elementary, a public school serving grades PK through 5 with 617 students as part of the Austin Independent School District (Isd).
Oak Hill Elementary shows a mixed academic profile. Its strongest area is English Reading, where students consistently outperform the state average across all tested grades. However, the school's overall state ranking has been declining, dropping from the 72nd percentile (4 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 63rd percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026. Mathematics proficiency in English is slightly below the state average (46.5% vs. 47.0%), while Science scores in 5th grade are a bright spot, exceeding both district and state averages. The school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.7 and per-student spending of $10,839.
A critical finding is a significant achievement gap for students taking Spanish-language STAAR tests. In 2025-2026, only 9.3% of these students were proficient in Reading and 4.5% in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 33.4% and 24.8%, respectively. This stark contrast, particularly in 5th Grade Mathematics where English test takers scored 47.73% proficient versus 9.09% for Spanish test takers, indicates that support systems for Spanish-speaking students need substantial improvement. While the school has a solid foundation in English literacy, addressing this gap and reversing the declining state ranking are key challenges for Oak Hill Elementary.
