Central Elementary is proud to be the oldest elementary school in LISD. We have a long history of being a great place to learn and grow for our students. If you have lived in Lewisville for very long, chances are that you know a former or current Central Cowboy.

Our school uniforms are another source of Central pride. We wear the colors navy, khaki and white. Full uniform guidelines are available in the school office.

Central will continue the tradition of giving each of our students the very best education possible. We look forward to welcoming new Central Cowboys each year and to making history in Lewisville for years to come.
