River Ridge Elementary

River Ridge Elementary sits in the scenic Lake Travis corridor of northwest Austin, where hill country views meet a fast-growing community of families drawn by both the natural beauty and the strong schools. As part of Leander ISD, River Ridge consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Texas, with particularly standout English scores that put it in rare company statewide. Families who value rigorous academics alongside an outdoorsy, tight-knit neighborhood feel — think lakeside weekends and a community that genuinely invests in its schools — will find a lot to love here.
