George Herbert Walker Bush Elementary

George Herbert Walker Bush Elementary sits in Addison, a small, lively town completely surrounded by Dallas that's better known for its restaurant scene and walkable streets than for being a family enclave — but families who do settle here tend to appreciate the urban convenience with a suburban feel. The school shows solid English scores and holds its own in math, making it a reasonable option for families planting roots in this pocket of North Dallas. It may appeal most to parents who value the tight-knit Addison community and easy access to everything the broader Dallas area has to offer, and who are open to supplementing at home, particularly in science.
