South Bosque Elementary

South Bosque Elementary sits in the fast-growing southwestern edge of Waco, where new neighborhoods blend with the wide-open Texas landscape that defines this part of McLennan County. As one of the top-ranked elementary schools in the entire state, it draws families who want serious academics without leaving the warmth of a tight-knit community — Midway ISD has a strong reputation for doing both well. If you're relocating to the Waco area and want a neighborhood where kids walk to school, neighbors know each other, and test scores back up the buzz, the South Bosque zone is worth a serious look.
