The Eanes ISD Address Guide: Which Austin Streets Feed Which Schools

Family Relocation Guide  ·  June 2026

Every home in Eanes ISD ends up at Westlake High School — that part is simple. What is not simple is knowing which elementary school and middle school a specific address feeds, because those assignments follow boundary lines that don't map onto neighborhood names, zip codes, or what a listing agent tells you at a showing. This guide covers how the district is structured, what each campus is like, and — most importantly — exactly how to verify the assignment for any address before you make an offer.

Eanes ISD serves approximately 7,700 students across 9 campuses — five elementary schools (K–5), two middle schools (6–8), one high school (9–12), and an Adult Transition Services program. The district covers Westlake Hills, Rollingwood, and portions of unincorporated Travis County west of MoPac. District office: 401 Camp Craft Road, Austin TX 78746 · (512) 732-9000 · eanesisd.net.

The structural simplicity that makes Eanes ISD so appealing to families: every child follows the same pipeline. Elementary school, then one of two middle schools, then Westlake High School. No lottery. No special applications. The only variable is which elementary your specific address is assigned to — and that assignment determines everything downstream.

Westlake High School: Where Every Eanes Path Ends

Westlake High School at 4100 Westbank Drive, Austin TX 78746 is the district's only high school. Every Eanes ISD student arrives here for grades 9–12 — approximately 2,800 students, ranked #1 in Texas and #19 nationally by Niche in 2025–2026.

The headline metrics: 98% graduation rate, 78% AP exam pass rate (roughly double the state average), 1,275 average SAT score, and 95% of graduates enrolled in four-year colleges. Twenty-six AP courses, a Fine Arts Academy, STEM pathways, dual language programs, debate, and robotics. Teacher average tenure is 8 years at the school.

The Westlake Chaparrals football program is a community institution of a specifically Texas variety. The program has produced NFL quarterbacks including Drew Brees, Nick Foles, and Sam Ehlinger, and regularly contends for the Texas state championship. Friday night games draw the neighborhood together in a way that is specific to this place — and that any family considering Westlake Hills should experience at least once before deciding.

The Two Middle Schools

Eanes ISD has two middle schools serving grades 6–8. Both rank in the top three middle schools in Texas on Niche 2025–2026 rankings. A student's specific middle school is determined by their elementary attendance zone, which is determined by their home address. Use the official SchoolSearch tool to verify the full feeder pattern for any specific property.

Hill Country Middle School — Located on Camp Craft Road in the district's core service area. Larger of the two by enrollment. Ranked #3 middle school in Texas by Niche 2026. Serves students from elementary zones in the central and northern portions of the district.

West Ridge Middle School — Serves portions of southwestern Westlake Hills and Lost Creek. Ranked #2 middle school in Texas by Niche 2026. Students attending West Ridge come from elementary zones in the southwestern portion of the district. Both middle schools deliver the same academic depth and community culture — the assignment is a product of address, not a quality difference.

The Five Elementary Schools

All five Eanes ISD elementary schools (K–5) rank among the top schools in Texas. The descriptions below reflect each campus's general character and broad service area. These are orientation guides only — specific assignments must be verified individually with the official tool.

Campus area descriptions are general orientation only. Boundary lines are address-specific and vary within all described areas. Verify every specific property address at eanesisd.net/district/maps before relying on any neighborhood-level description for a real estate or enrollment decision.

How to Verify Your Specific Address: Four Steps

Step 1 — Use the official SchoolSearch tool. Go to eanesisd.net/district/maps and click SchoolSearch. Enter the full street address — house number, street name, city, zip. The tool returns the assigned elementary, middle, and high school for that specific address. Do this for every property you are seriously evaluating.

Step 2 — If the address doesn't return a clean result, call the district. Some addresses near boundaries produce inconclusive results online. The Eanes ISD enrollment office at (512) 732-9000 can provide verbal and written confirmation. Call before making an offer on any property with an ambiguous online result.

Step 3 — Request written confirmation for boundary-adjacent properties. For properties in areas where the Eanes and Austin ISD boundary is uncertain — particularly in Barton Creek, along the MoPac corridor, and in addresses marketed broadly as "Westlake" — request a written email confirmation from the Eanes ISD enrollment office. Written confirmation from the district is the authoritative document.

Step 4 — Verify elementary assignment separately from district membership. Confirming a property is within Eanes ISD and confirming which elementary it feeds are two different questions. Complete both verifications for any shortlisted property. An address confirmed within Eanes ISD may still feed a different elementary than the surrounding neighborhood suggests — particularly in areas where multiple elementary zones meet.

The Five Boundary Mistakes That Cost Buyers

1. Assuming Barton Creek equals Eanes ISD. The majority of Barton Creek — including most golf course community addresses and properties most commonly marketed with that name — falls in Austin ISD, not Eanes. Only specific, address-verified sections are served by Barton Creek Elementary. "Barton Creek" is a neighborhood name, not a school district designation.

2. Using 78746 as a proxy for Eanes ISD. The 78746 zip includes addresses assigned to both Eanes ISD and Austin ISD. A zip code filter in a home search is not a school district filter. Verify each specific address independently.

3. Trusting "near Westlake" or "Westlake area" language. These are marketing descriptions, not school district representations. Proximity to the Westlake Hills municipal boundary does not determine school district assignment.

4. Assuming same-street addresses share the same school assignment. The Eanes ISD boundary can change mid-block. Two adjacent homes on the same street can be assigned to different districts or to different elementary schools within Eanes ISD. Address-level verification cannot be approximated by neighborhood.

5. Planning on a transfer after purchase. Eanes ISD does not accept inter-district transfers. There is no magnet program, no lottery, and no alternative enrollment path. The home address is the only path into the district — without exception.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find which elementary a specific Austin address is zoned to in Eanes ISD?
Use the Eanes ISD SchoolSearch tool at eanesisd.net/district/maps. Enter the full property address and the tool returns the assigned elementary, middle, and high school. If the address does not return a clear result, call the district enrollment office at (512) 732-9000 or the registrar at the nearest campus for written confirmation.

Can I choose which Eanes ISD elementary school my child attends?
Generally no. Assignments are address-based and the district does not operate an intra-district transfer program. Families with a specific elementary preference should confirm that campus's boundary zone and search for properties within it — not purchase first and request a transfer after.

Do all Eanes ISD elementary schools feed the same middle school?
No. Some elementary zones feed Hill Country Middle School; others feed West Ridge Middle School. The specific middle school assignment depends on the elementary zone, which depends on the home address. Verify the full K–12 feeder pattern — elementary, middle, and high school — using the official SchoolSearch tool for any specific address.

If I rent within Eanes ISD while house-hunting, can my child enroll?
Yes — enrollment is based on residential address, whether owned or rented. A family renting within the district boundary can typically enroll their children during the rental period. Contact the Eanes ISD enrollment office directly to confirm current documentation requirements before the school year starts.

How often do Eanes ISD boundaries change?
The district's boundaries have been relatively stable given its compact geography and flat enrollment trend. That said, boundaries can be adjusted periodically. The official SchoolSearch tool at eanesisd.net always reflects current boundaries — always verify using the current tool rather than information more than a year old from any source, including this guide.
