Compared to nearby schools, such as Lake Travis Middle and Canyon Ridge Middle, which consistently rank higher in the state and have stronger test scores across multiple subject areas, Lago Vista Middle has room for growth. However, the school's commitment to investing in resources, with spending per student increasing from $8,417 in 2018-2019 to $9,215 in 2020-2021, and its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.8 in 2022-2023, suggest a dedication to providing a high-quality education for the Lago Vista community.
