Crawford Elementary

Crawford is a small, tight-knit farming community about 20 miles west of Waco, and Crawford Elementary very much reflects that close community feel — the kind of place where teachers know every kid by name and families are deeply invested in the school. Academically, it stands out especially in English, where students consistently perform near the top of the state. Families who want a rural upbringing with genuinely strong academics, and who don't mind the quiet country lifestyle that comes with small-town Central Texas, tend to thrive here.
