Capitol El

Capitol EL is a elementary school located in Levelland, TX, serving grades 1–3 and approximately 297 students. Operated by Levelland ISD, the campus sits about 29.3 miles from The Lubbock's newsroom and is part of The Lubbock's ongoing local education coverage.

The school employs roughly 23 full-time-equivalent classroom teachers for a student-to-teacher ratio of about 12.9:1. That ratio is below the state average for TX, generally an indicator of smaller class sizes and more individualized instruction.

Capitol EL is a traditional zoned public school within Levelland ISD, meaning enrollment is generally tied to residence within the school's attendance boundary. Boundary maps and feeder patterns are published by the district and updated annually.

State accountability ratings for TEA are released annually and combine student achievement, growth, and closing-the-gaps metrics. The Lubbock publishes rating updates as soon as they become public each fall, with comparisons to nearby campuses and prior-year trends.

For families in Levelland considering elementary placement, Capitol EL is one of the campuses The Lubbock regularly covers — including school board decisions, bond elections, and individual program changes that affect enrollment.
