What families should verify directly
Calendar and closures
Confirm term dates, staff-development days, holidays, weather closures and revised schedules with the district.
Enrollment and zones
Use the current district enrollment and school-finder tools before relying on an address or attendance boundary.
Board decisions
Read the published agenda, supporting papers and approved minutes when a policy or budget decision matters to you.
Which district serves my address?
A Round Rock mailing address or city boundary does not always determine a child's assigned district or campus. Check the official district's current boundary and enrollment tools for the exact property address before making an application or housing decision.
How we cover schools
Local Gazette distinguishes a proposal from an approved board decision, links readers to the underlying public source and reports the local impact in plain language. District announcements remain the authority for live operational details.
