Living in Zavala Elementary
Martin Middle closed at the end of the 2025-26 school year under Austin ISD's consolidation plan; its former attendance zone covered inner east Austin including Holly, Govalle, Chestnut, Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross National Register Historic District, and the East 7th / MLK East corridor. The campus at 1601 Haskell Street sits in the Govalle area east of IH-35. Martin MS is named for Austin civic leader Edward Martin (1894-1975).
The Eastside Early College High School attendance zone covers inner east Austin between IH-35, the Colorado River, and Pleasant Valley Road, including some of the city's most historic neighborhoods. Neighborhoods include East Cesar Chavez, Holly, Govalle, French Place, MLK East / Rosewood, Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross National Register Historic District, Edgewood, and Chestnut. The Eastside campus sits at 900 Thompson Street — the Original L.C. Anderson High School campus, which served Austin's African American population from 1889 to 1971.
Residential character is a mix of preserved 1920s-1940s craftsman bungalows, mid-century brick homes, and recent infill condos / townhomes (especially along East Cesar Chavez and East 6th). Holly's distinctive twin red-and-white power-plant smokestacks (decommissioned Holly Street Power Plant) are visible across much of the eastern zone. The East Cesar Chavez and East 6th corridors run east-west through the zone with active restaurant, bar, and music-venue commercial. The Plaza Saltillo TOD around the East MetroRail station adds urban-density mixed-use.
Day-to-day retail centers on East Cesar Chavez (one of Austin's most active small-business corridors with restaurants, taquerias, bars, and music venues), East 6th Street (the eastern extension of the downtown 6th-Street music corridor), Manor Road (Salty Sow, Vino Vino, Hoover's), and the Plaza Saltillo TOD retail. Healthcare access centers on Dell Seton Medical Center at the University of Texas (downtown, west of zone) and Ascension Seton Medical Center Austin (38th Street, north of zone).
Outdoor recreation centers on the Colorado River frontage. Festival Beach / Edward Rendon Sr. Park (along Lady Bird Lake's southern shore) connects to the Hike-and-Bike Trail. Roy G. Guerrero Colorado River Park (363 acres along the Colorado River east of Pleasant Valley) is one of Austin's largest park footprints. The Mexican-American Cultural Center sits along the river adjacent to Festival Beach. Boggy Creek Greenbelt runs through the northern part of the zone.
