Approximately 915 students in Round Rock ISD could attend a different campus starting in the 2020-21 school year if the board of trustees approves preliminary attendance zone adjustments as proposed.

The boundary changes are under consideration to prepare for the opening of Elementary School No. 35 in fall 2021, address campus capacity issues at three elementary schools and realign feeder patterns, said Daniel Presley, the senior chief of schools and innovation for RRISD.

Elementary No. 35 will be built in the Ryan’s Crossing neighborhood near Old Settlers Park in northeast Round Rock. The school will provide space for about 900 students and is expected to cost approximately $48 million, according to the district.
