Camino Real Elementary

Camino Real Elementary sits in Niederwald, a small rural community in Hays County where the Hill Country begins to give way to the Austin suburbs — it's the kind of place where neighbors still know each other by name. The school serves a modest academic profile, which may reflect the challenges of a rapidly growing, working-class corridor that's seen a lot of new development without always the resources to match. Families here tend to be deeply rooted in the community, and for those who value a tight-knit, small-town feel over competitive academics, Camino Real offers a familiar, neighborhood-school experience along the US-21 corridor south of Austin.
