Lamar CISD is proud to be the 5th fastest growing district in the state of Texas. In fact, demographers project that our community will add more than 43,000 new single-family homes within the next decade. In 2020, Lamar CISD had the greatest number of new housing starts of any school district in the State of Texas.
To keep up with our growth, we are frequently building and opening new schools—while regularly reviewing and monitoring enrollment.
Due to the growing student population that resulted from new growth and development in the area, the district has enacted a cap on enrollment for Hubenak Elementary located at 11344 Rancho Bella Pkwy effective January 1, 2022 - May 31, 2023. This decision allows class sizes to remain at acceptable levels while not overloading instructional programs at the campus.
This enrollment cap is a temporary solution while the district continues to work towards building new schools in the area.
Families with students moving into the Hubenak Elementary zone will be rezoned for Huggins Elementary located at 1 Huggins Drive for the 2022-2023 school year. Transportation will be available to these families.
