In an exciting announcement, the city of Austin has something to celebrate! The Eanes Independent School District (Eanes ISD) has earned the distinguished title of the best school district in Texas for 2025, according to the latest report from Niche. This achievement shines a spotlight not only on the quality of education offered by the district but also on the hard work and dedication of both the staff and students.
Standing at the forefront of Texas education, Eanes ISD topped renowned school districts, including Carroll ISD, Allen ISD, and Katy ISD, proving to be the undisputed champion in the Lone Star State. But the accolades don’t stop there! The district has also been recognized as the No. 7 best school district in the entire country, moving up to this impressive ranking from its previous position ahead of notable districts like Palo Alto United School District in California.
In a heartfelt statement from Eanes ISD, they expressed the pride they feel about this recognition: “Being recognized as a top school district in the State and nation is a testament to Eanes ISD’s unwavering commitment to providing a world-class, innovative education.” They added, “Our mission goes beyond academic success; we prepare our students to meet future challenges and seize new opportunities.”
This passion for education is reflected in the performance of the students. The district has a low student-teacher ratio of 15 to 1, which ensures that students receive personalized attention. Impressive statistics like 77% of students being proficient in math and 83% in reading highlight the effectiveness of teachers who reportedly earn an annual salary of $56,133.
With an impressive average graduation rate of 99%, it’s no wonder that graduates go on to attend some of the best schools in the nation. The most popular choices among Eanes ISD alumni are The University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M University, and Rice University.
However, it’s important to note that while Eanes ISD excels in various areas, they received a B- for diversity in Niche’s report. It’s a reminder that while the focus is on excellence, there’s always room for improvement and growth.
Eanes ISD isn’t just about academics; it also places significant emphasis on athletics. Austin Westlake High School, which is part of the district, has established itself as a powerhouse. The school has won an impressive 47 state titles across 12 sports, showcasing a tradition of excellence on the fields and courts. Some of the most notable alumni include football stars Drew Brees, Nick Foles, and Justin Tucker, proving that Eanes ISD fosters not only scholars but also top-notch athletes.
As the community buzzes with pride over these accomplishments, it’s clear that Eanes ISD is setting the standard for educational excellence. The dedication of teachers, the spirit of students, and the unwavering support of families and the community make Eanes ISD a shining example of what a school district can achieve.
As we look ahead, the future seems bright for Eanes ISD. With a continuous commitment to innovation and excellence, they are not just preparing students for today’s challenges; they are equipping them for a successful tomorrow. It’s an exciting time for Austin and the Eanes community, as they continue to pave the way in both education and athletics!
