About Jarrell Independent School District
Jarrell Independent School District serves roughly 4,500 students (2025-26) across six campuses in northwestern Williamson County, centered on the fast-growing town of Jarrell along Interstate 35 about 30 miles north of Austin and 17 miles north of Georgetown. The district covers approximately 84 square miles and is headquartered at 108 East Avenue F in Jarrell (76537). Enrollment has grown rapidly with the residential build-out of the I-35 corridor — district figures show enrollment up roughly 97% between the 2019-20 and 2024-25 school years — placing JISD among the faster-growing districts in the Austin area.
JISD operates three elementary schools (Double Creek, Igo, and Jarrell Elementary, each PK–5), two middle schools (Jarrell Middle and the newer Jarrell Ranch Middle, grades 6–8), and Jarrell High School (grades 9–12); the district also runs the S.T.E.P. alternative-education program. The town of Jarrell itself had a 2020 Census population of 1,753 — up about 78% from 984 in 2010 — and has continued to add rooftops quickly since, reflecting the I-35 corridor growth between Austin and Waco. Jarrell sits along Ronald Reagan Boulevard, a north–south Hill Country alternative to I-35 for commuters heading toward Cedar Park and northern Travis County.
Master-planned and large-subdivision communities along the Jarrell-area I-35 / Ronald Reagan Boulevard corridor include Sonterra, Stewart Crossing, Cool Water Crossing, and Park View at Sonterra, and much of the district's new-construction inventory is concentrated in these developments. The historic core of the town lines Avenue F and the original I-35 frontage, with smaller infill subdivisions inside the city limits. Day-to-day retail and services cluster along the I-35 frontage in Jarrell and at the Highway 195 / I-35 interchange, with larger retail and healthcare in Georgetown (about 17 miles south) and Round Rock. The combination of new master-planned housing and quick I-35 access to the Austin job market has driven the district's rapid residential growth.
Jarrell's three elementary campuses feed the two middle schools and, in turn, Jarrell High School, keeping the district's structure compact even as enrollment climbs. The growth reflects broader employment expansion along the eastern Williamson County corridor — including Samsung's semiconductor manufacturing campus under construction in nearby Taylor, about 20 miles southeast — together with continued rooftop growth in Georgetown and Round Rock to the south. For families weighing the district, JISD pairs new-construction neighborhoods and lower land costs than the inner metro with direct I-35 and Ronald Reagan Boulevard access to the Austin job market.
