Best Public Schools in Zip Code 78642


Summary:

The 78642 zip code area is home to 8 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Liberty Hill Independent School District (ISD) except for the alternative school, which is part of the Ki Charter district. The schools in this area generally perform well, with several standouts like Liberty Hill High School, which ranks in the top 400 high schools in Texas and maintains a 4-star rating, and Santa Rita Middle, which also ranks in the top 400-600 middle schools and has strong reading proficiency scores.

The district as a whole performs above the state average on STAAR exams, with schools like Bill Burden Elementary earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, there are some notable differences in academic performance between individual schools, with Santa Rita Middle outperforming Liberty Hill Middle on many metrics. Additionally, the alternative Ki Charter Academy Liberty Hill school has significantly lower test scores compared to the other district schools.

While the district overall is high-performing, there are some equity considerations to address, as the schools with higher percentages of low-income students tend to have lower academic performance. Additionally, there does not appear to be a clear correlation between per-student spending and academic outcomes across the schools. Overall, the 78642 zip code area is home to a strong school district with some standout individual schools, but also opportunities for improvement in supporting all students, particularly those in alternative settings or from disadvantaged backgrounds.
