Central Elementary

Mabank is a small East Texas town on the shores of Cedar Creek Lake, where the pace is a little slower and neighbors actually know each other's names. Central Elementary sits right in the heart of that community, with math scores that outpace the majority of Texas schools and a setting where kids aren't just a number in a crowd. Families drawn to lake-town living who want a solid, close-knit school experience — without the chaos of a big suburban district — will feel right at home here.
