About Austin Independent School District
Austin ISD is the largest and oldest district in the region, established in 1881 and currently serving 75,000 students across 120 campuses. The district contains multitudes: Austin High School, the oldest continuously operating public high school in Texas, sits on Lady Bird Lake; Anderson High has run the only International Baccalaureate program in Austin ISD since 1991; McCallum's Fine Arts Academy won the Grammy Foundation's National Signature School award in 2015 - the only recipient that year out of thousands of fine arts programs nationwide. The district is undergoing a significant consolidation, closing 10 campuses for 2026-27 to concentrate resources. This restructuring will change feeder patterns for some neighborhoods, making it essential to verify current zoning for any home purchase.
Why Families Choose Austin ISD
Families choose Austin ISD for location and program diversity. The district covers central Austin - Tarrytown, Hyde Park, Zilker, Barton Hills, Northwest Hills - neighborhoods where you can walk to restaurants, bike to work, and live the urban Austin lifestyle that draws people here. The luxury feeder chains within AISD are genuinely strong: Casis Elementary (10/10 GreatSchools) feeds O. Henry Middle feeds Austin High in the Tarrytown corridor, while Gullett Elementary (9/10, TEA 'A') feeds Lamar Middle (TEA 'A') feeds McCallum (TEA 'A') in the Allandale/Rosedale corridor. Bowie High in Circle C earned a TEA 'A' with a 98% graduation rate. The key is knowing WHICH feeder chain serves your address.
Real Estate in Austin ISD
The Gullett → Lamar → McCallum chain (all TEA 'A') has made Allandale and Brentwood some of the fastest-appreciating neighborhoods in central Austin, with homes from $450K-$800K. The 2026-27 consolidation plan will shift boundaries for some campuses - if you're buying in AISD, confirming the school assignment for your specific address is not optional. For current pricing, pair the school assignment with live MLS median price, price bands, active inventory, and recent sales-through on the relevant neighborhood or ZIP guide before making an offer.
“Austin ISD is the most misunderstood district in the metro. Tarrytown, Old Enfield, and Northwest Hills feed into some of the best schools in Texas - you just need to know which addresses map to which campuses.”
— Joe Keenan, Keenan Group at Compass
Things to Consider

What Families Say About Austin ISD
“There were NO areas that Cara Keenan could have been more helpful! She was very prompt returning all phone calls and emails, and we always felt like she was available at anytime to answer our questions. She was very thorough while looking at houses, helping point out pros and cons of each property, and helped us make an informed decision that was best, not only for us as a new couple, but also as first time home buyers. She walked us through every step of the home buying process and kept us at ease during, what can be without someone like Cara Keenan, a very stressful experience. We are very lucky to have contacted Joe Keenan, who relayed us to her, as we feel there could be nobody else looking out for us as well as she did. I can not stress how amazing Cara Keenan was! We hope she will still be available when it is time for our next purchase.”
— Paul Sowada (Buyer), Allandale
“I just wrapped up my 4th successful transaction with Cara Keenan and Joe Keenan by my side. I can't think of anyone else I'd want to rely on for my real estate needs. Cara Keenan, Joe Keenan, and their impressive team are true Rock Stars at what they do!”
— Carla Steffen (Seller), Barton Creek
“I can't recommend Cara Keenan enough!!! For our first home-buying experience, she was everything we were hoping for and more. Cara Keenan and Joe Keenan were recommended by a colleague, but it was Cara Keenan who took point on our search (Joe Keenan was really helpful when we were out and about looking at properties). Throughout the whole process, Cara Keenan was super-responsive, proactive, extremely knowledgeable about the Austin market, made sure to check in about any concerns we might have and made suggestions that saved our butts when it came to negotiating on the property we went with. Even after the closing, she was helpful in coordinating some issues for us and smoothing out some work on the house before we were moving in. She takes real pride in her work, listens, eased minds and was just so helpful (and fun!). I've already recommended her to other friends for whenever they may want to start looking and know that if/when my husband and I need to move, she'll be our first call.”
— Sarah Dettenwanger (Buyer), Barton Hills
