New School Year - New Website!

Dear Lake Travis ISD Staff and Parents/Guardians,


We are excited to introduce our new district and campus websites!


Each site has been restructured to provide a more dynamic, consistent, and user-friendly experience, and all sites are responsive to a variety of displays and devices. Please note, while our design and layout have changed, our web address remains the same: ltisdschools.org.


Please take a moment to view this brief video which highlights some of the features and enhancements our new sites have to offer.


It is important to note that our sites are still a work in progress as we continue to update our content in preparation for the upcoming school year. Thank you for your patience.


We hope our new websites will serve as valuable resources, innovative tools, and a source of pride for the Lake Travis ISD community!


Sincerely,


Marco Alvarado

Executive Director for Communications & Community Relations

Although the deadline has passed for ordering WCHE supply kits online, it's not too late to shop for supplies! We have lists of the school supplies for 2024-2025 so that you can purchase supplies on your own from any source convenient to you. Please bring your supplies with you to our Meet the Teacher event August 12.


If you have a concern about the affordability of school supplies, please feel free to reach out to our School Counselor, Mr. Boren. We often have a limited supply of kits available, and he will be happy to discuss this with you.

We are pleased to announce the opening of Returning Student Verification for the 2024-2025 school year. This process is required to be completed for all students who will be returning for the 2024-2025 school year. If your child will not be returning to Lake Travis ISD for the 2024-2025 school year, please contact our WCHE Registrar, Ms. Becky Wright, and submit the appropriate withdrawal form.


To complete the Returning Student Verification process, log into Skyward Family Access (link button below) and click on the “Returning Student Verification 2024-2025” tile.


And, please let us know if you have any questions.


With warmest regards,

Amy Russ, Principal
