About Eanes Elementary
Eanes Elementary, the namesake and oldest campus of Eanes Independent School District, serves grades K-5 from 4101 Bee Cave Road in West Lake Hills. The school enrolled approximately 500 students with a pupil-teacher ratio of about 11:1 as of the most recent reporting year. The principal is Lesley Ryan. Eanes Elementary holds a U.S. Blue Ribbon School designation.
The campus has the deepest history in the district. The first Eanes School was formed in 1872 on land owned by Robert Eanes — the district's namesake — who had moved to Texas that year. In 1874, William and Sophia Teague donated 2 acres for a permanent schoolhouse; that 2-acre parcel sits at the heart of the modern Eanes Elementary campus today. The current music building is a "rock schoolhouse" built in 1937 to replace an earlier wood-frame structure, and it is still used for music instruction.
The campus offers Gifted & Talented services, Special Education programming, and Social Emotional Learning curriculum. As an Eanes ISD campus, Eanes Elementary operates inside a district that earned an "A" overall accountability rating from the Texas Education Agency for both 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 (94 of 100 each year). Eanes Elementary feeds Hill Country Middle School (grades 6-8); all Eanes ISD students continue on to Westlake High School (grades 9-12). The campus website is ee.eanesisd.net.
