Ray Elementary Attendance Zone Map
Hutto ISD has eight elementary schools, three middle schools and one high school, so attendance zones matter here. The district redrew elementary zones for the 2025-26 school year when Lee Martinez Elementary opened, and it redrew middle school zones for 2024-25 when Gus Almquist Middle School opened. It is now drawing high school zones for Creekside High School, scheduled to open in fall 2027.
Ray Elementary’s zone covers much of southern Hutto, including Cotton Brook, Heritage Mill, Rolling Glen, Glenwood, Brooklands, Lookout at Brushy Creek and the part of Creek Bend south of Carl Stern Drive.
To confirm the school for a specific address, use Hutto ISD’s SchoolSearch address lookup, or view the district’s elementary and middle school zone maps on its School Zones & Boundaries page. Hutto ISD’s boundary is not the same as the City of Hutto’s: some Hutto addresses are in other districts, and parts of Round Rock, including Siena and Salerno, are in Hutto ISD.
