Hanes Elementary

Hanes Elementary sits in Irving's Las Colinas corridor, a densely diverse corner of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex where working families from all over the world have put down roots. Academics here are a work in progress — scores in English, math, and science are below state averages — so families who prioritize strong classroom performance may want to weigh their options carefully. That said, Irving's central location and relatively affordable housing make it a draw for families who value access to the broader DFW area and a richly multicultural community.
