Education
Lytton Springs had a school in the mid-1880s. Today the community is served by the Lockhart Independent School District.
In fall 2016, a new elementary school, Alma Brewer Strawn Elementary School, was opened in Lytton Springs. It was named for a respected staff member named Alma Brewer Strawn who taught in the district and retired before the campus opened. The district then organized an attendance zone map for its elementary school students, who originally were assigned a school to attend. It is the first campus to be built outside of the Lockhart city limits and teaches grades PK–5, while the elementary schools in Lockhart now teach K-5 and Carver Kindergarten School, now George W. Carver Early Childhood Academy teaches only Pre-kindergarten.
