Forest Trail Elementary

Tucked into the rolling hills of West Austin's 78746 zip code, Forest Trail Elementary sits in one of the city's most sought-after school corridors, where tree-lined streets and a strong sense of community make it a natural fit for families who prioritize both academics and neighborhood connection. As part of the highly regarded Eanes ISD, it consistently performs near the top of the state in English and math, drawing families who want rigorous instruction without leaving the warmth of a close-knit elementary feel. If you're considering a move to the Westlake area — with its outdoor lifestyle, proximity to downtown Austin, and reputation for strong schools — Forest Trail is exactly the kind of school that tends to seal the deal.
