Black Elementary School - Cypress Fairbanks ISD

Cypress-Fairbanks ISD · Cypress · 77429

Black Elementary sits on Grant Road in the wooded country between Telge and Spring Cypress — a campus at 14155 Grant Road in Cypress’s 77429 ZIP, rated A (91 out of 100) in TEA’s 2024–25 state ratings with three of six distinction designations, serving about 1,120 students in grades PK–5. It opened in 2006, named for Royce Black, who taught social studies at Cy-Fair High School for 33 years as teacher, team leader and department chairman. One thing to know up front: Black’s zone splits nearly down the middle — the west-of-Telge side feeds Goodson Middle and Cypress Woods High, while the east-of-Telge side feeds Hamilton Middle and Cy-Fair High.

Buying or selling a home zoned to Black?

Gated communities like Rock Creek and the Reserve at Cypress Creek, wooded acreage like Stable Gate and Telge Ranch, and a feeder map where one road decides between two entirely different high-school chains — this is a zone where the address does double duty. As your buyer’s agent I’ll pin down the exact route for any home you like, dig into HOA dues, MUD taxes and flood history, and negotiate hard on your behalf — we’ll agree on how I’m paid up front and in writing.
