Lakewood Elementary

Lakewood Elementary is a quietly strong performer in Belton ISD, sitting comfortably in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools with particularly solid scores across math and science. Belton itself is a small, tight-knit Central Texas city just off I-35 between Waco and Austin — the kind of place where families are drawn in by the lower cost of living, access to Lake Belton, and a genuine small-town feel without being too far from big-city amenities. Families who value consistent academic performance in a community-oriented setting, without the pressure of a sprawling suburban district, will feel right at home here.
