The campus sits at 8101 Croftwood Dr. in Southwest Austin’s 78749 zip code and serves Pre-K through 5th grade. Boone was a receiving campus in Austin ISD’s consolidation: for 2026-27 it keeps its long-standing zone and adds part of the former Sunset Valley Elementary zone, which closed after 2025-26.

Boone opened on September 3, 1986, and an eight-classroom addition was completed in January 2000. It is named for George Boone, one of Austin ISD’s first two driver’s education teachers, and Johnnie Boone, a former principal of Sunset Valley Elementary whose advocacy for early childhood education helped lead Texas to fund kindergarten for all students. In 2025-26, Boone enrolled 388 students, with 31.7% economically disadvantaged, 11.6% emergent bilingual and 23.5% receiving special education services, according to TEA. Austin ISD’s impact matrix counts 91 former Sunset Valley students reassigned to Boone for 2026-27, so enrollment is expected to rise. GreatSchools and TEA measure different things. GreatSchools weighs test results against schools with similar student populations, while TEA’s rating, below, is the state’s official accountability measure.
Academic Performance: Texas Education Agency Accountability Rating
In TEA’s 2025-26 accountability ratings, released in August 2026, Boone Elementary earned an overall B with a score of 84. That is up 12 points from a C (72) in 2024-25. Boone was a B campus in 2021-22 (87) and 2022-23 (83), then dropped to a C in 2023-24 (76) and 2024-25 before this year’s rebound.
- Overall TEA Rating (2025-26): B (84)
- Student Achievement: C, 76 out of 100 (based on STAAR performance)
- School Progress: B, 88 out of 100 (Academic Growth B/88, Relative Performance F/58)
- Closing the Gaps: C, 76 out of 100
- Prior Overall Ratings: B (87) in 2021-22, B (83) in 2022-23, C (76) in 2023-24, C (72) in 2024-25
- Austin ISD (2025-26): B (81) district-wide
Under TEA’s scale, an A reflects exemplary performance, B is recognized, C is acceptable, D needs improvement, and F is unacceptable. Boone’s overall rating is driven by School Progress, which rose from a C (70) to a B (88) in 2025-26 because Academic Growth, which tracks year-over-year student gains on STAAR, jumped from 70 to 88. Student Achievement, the share of students meeting STAAR standards, stayed a C but edged up from 73 to 76. Relative Performance, which compares results with schools serving similar shares of economically disadvantaged students, was an F (58) for the second year in a row. Closing the Gaps, which measures results for student groups, improved from 71 to 76, still a C. Boone has not earned distinction designations in the last five rated years, and it is not identified for state improvement support.

Boone Elementary Attendance Zone Map
Boone’s zone covers Southwest Austin neighborhoods around the campus, including Maple Run, Deer Park at Maple Run, Woodstone Village, Southampton, Southampton Hills, Cherry Creek, Western Hills at Cherry Creek, Oak Plantations, West Branch, Wheeler Creek Village and Las Casas Verdes. For 2026-27 it also takes in part of the former Sunset Valley Elementary zone. Austin ISD closed Sunset Valley at the end of 2025-26 and split its zoned students by address, sending 91 to Boone and 210 to Cunningham Elementary, according to the district’s impact matrix. Boone itself was not closed or renamed.
If you are looking at a home near the old Boone and Sunset Valley line, check the address carefully. Austin ISD plans Phase 1 boundary changes for 2027-28, limited to the General Marshall Middle School and Linder Elementary areas, with a board vote expected in fall 2026, and a district-wide boundary and feeder realignment for fall 2028, so confirm any address with Austin ISD’s school finder before buying.
Homes Zoned to Boone Elementary: Market Stats
The figures below cover single-family homes sold through Unlock MLS whose addresses fall inside Boone Elementary’s 2026-27 attendance zone, based on Austin ISD’s official SY 2026-27 boundary map, not the school typed into each listing. Maple Run accounts for the largest share of sales, followed by Woodstone Village, Southampton, Cherry Creek and Oak Plantations. Of the zone’s 574 sales since September 2022, 80 were in the area reassigned from Sunset Valley, and 69 listings in the zone were tagged to Sunset Valley in MLS, so the MLS school field lags the new boundaries.
