“Understanding DSISD Boundaries: Where Each Neighborhood Falls”

Dripping Springs ISD has updated its attendance zones for the 2025–26 school year to balance enrollment across elementary and middle schools as the district adds Elementary #6 in Headwaters and expands the recently built Sycamore Springs Middle School located off Sawyer Ranch Road. If you are home shopping near neighborhood boundaries, it is important to verify the current assignment using the district’s interactive map and official announcements rather than relying on older documents or word of mouth. The Board approved the new zones on December 16, 2024, and they are now reflected in this super useful interactive map.

Growth is the driver. DSISD reports enrollment has climbed more than 60% over the last decade, with projections to exceed 10,000 students by the 2026–27 school year. That continued growth increases the likelihood of further boundary adjustments in the coming years, especially as new housing comes online across northern Hays County and western Travis County. For district-line verification at a specific address, pair the DSISD map with the Texas Education Agency’s School District Locator to confirm whether a property is inside DSISD before checking campus assignments.

If you want to explore neighborhoods with today’s zoning in mind, start with this map and then dive into the Local Market Profiles and Data. When you find a home you love, or even just a neighborhood that peeks your interest, reach out and I will confirm the property’s DSISD status and the assigned campuses using the official map, and I will flag any edge-case addresses that could be affected by future adjustments based on the district’s growth outlook.

A new High School is coming to Driftwood and WE ARE SO EXCITED!!
