Lake Travis ISD was originally a part of Dripping Springs ISD. Lake Travis ISD was formed as a separate school district in 1981. With its motto, “Every heart. Every mind. Every day.”, Lake Travis ISD illustrates its commitment to providing the best of educational services to all its students within the beautiful Lake Travis community.

Included within Lake Travis ISD are four elementary schools (Bee Cave, Lake Pointe, Lake Travis, and Lakeway), two middle schools (Lake Travis Middle and Hudson Bend), and one high school (Lake Travis High). A fifth elementary school, Serene Hills, is scheduled to open in August 2008.

Future plans for Lake Travis ISD include the expansion of Lake Travis High School, Lake Travis Middle, and Hudson Bend Middle. Additional school campuses to accommodate the growth in the area are in the planning stages.

Community involvement is a vital component of Lake Travis ISD. Each campus has a Campus Advisory Team (CAT) made up of school staff and community members. Lake Travis ISD also participates in programs such as the Partners in Education Program and Volunteers in Public Schools. The Community Education Program offered by Lake Travis ISD enjoys strong community participation. School facilities receive extensive use from various organizations in the area.

On the Texas Education Agency Academic Excellence Indicator System for 2007, Lake Travis ISD was rated as Academically Acceptable.   Schools within Lake Travis ISD receiving Exemplary ratings were Bee Cave Elementary, Lakeway Elementary, Lake Pointe Elementary, and Lake Travis Middle. Hudson Bend Middle received a Recognized rating from TEA.

Lakeway Elementary School was named by the Texas Business and Education Coalition to its Honor Roll for the second year in a row. Texas Monthly magazine named Lakeway Elementary and Hudson Bend Middle to its list of High Performing Public Schools in December 2007.

For 2007, two Lake Travis High School students were named as National Merit Finalists and eight students were recognized as Commended. Four Lake Travis High School students were named as National Hispanic Scholars in 2007.

The current enrollment for Lake Travis ISD is over 5,800. The demographic makeup of the student population is 83% White, 13% Hispanic, 1% African American, and 2% Asian students. The tax rate for Lake Travis ISD is $1.3585 per $100 valuation.

ct snow can cause large local variations in snow depth with 50 cm of snow accumulate over the course of a few days near the shore and a few miles inland from the lake shore there may be no snowfall at all. Lake effect snow does occur in regions away from the great lakes (for example along Lake Baikal in Russia) but it is far more pronounced and and destructive to ground and air transportation around the great lakes.

Lake effect snow occurs when a mass of freezing air moves down from the Arctic over a body of warmer water, creating instability in the atmosphere above the lakes. As a consequence, clouds build and develop over the lakes and, as they move downwind, develop into snow showers and squalls.

The water temperature of the Great Lakes lags behind the atmosphere in cooling through early winter, as water holds its heat far more readily than land. The heating from below results in instability in the air during cold outbreaks. This instability mixes warm, moist air near the surface of the lakes into the lowest 1 to 1.5 km of atmosphere. Rising air rapidly reaches saturation, and the result is shallow cumuliform clouds, frequently aligned in bands parallel to the low-level wind. By January, ice covers most of the lakes\’ surface area, cutting off or reducing the heat supply.

The distribution of lake effect snowfall in the Great Lakes area depends upon several factors: the position and direction of weather systems, the lake water temperatures and its variations, and the strength and direction of the winds. Topographic differences on the lee of the Great Lakes also affect the intensity and distribution of snowfall. On the eastern and southern shores of the Great Lakes, lake effect snowfall contributes between 30% and 50% of the total winter snowfall .

Winds from the Arctic generally blow from the west or northwest, causing lake effect snow to fall on the east or southeast sides of the Great Lakes. Whether or not an area gets a large fall of snow from lake effect snow is dependent on the direction of the winds, the duration they blow from a particular direction, and the size of the temperature differential between the lakes and the air above.

Cold air holds very little moisture and the low level of the atmosphere is quite unstable. Therefore clouds can form very quickly, condensation occurs and snow falls.

In late 1977 a storm hit the southeast of Lake Huron around London, Ontario. In just three days from December 7th to 9th 100cm (39 inches) of lake effect snow fell on the region. This snowfall was made worse by the 60mph winds causing huge drifts.

However the largest snowfall recorded that was attributed to lake effect occurred in January 1966. In a five day period from 27th to 31st, 259cm (102 inches) of snow fell in Oswego, New York. Half of that total fell on the 31st.
