Kirk Elementary School - Cypress Fairbanks ISD

Cypress-Fairbanks ISD · Houston · 77041

Kirk Elementary covers more ground than its size suggests — from the gated lake streets of Lakes on Eldridge to the unrestricted acreage of Carverdale — from its campus at 12421 Tanner Road in the 77041 ZIP. Open since 2000, it’s rated B (83 out of 100) in TEA’s 2024–25 state ratings with one of the six distinction designations it was eligible for, serving about 740 students in PK–5. The district named it for a teacher its campus history introduces simply as Ms. Kirk — 37 classroom years, 28 of them with CFISD. Every Kirk address feeds Truitt Middle and then Cypress Ridge High.
