"Slow Down. Be Kind. Watch for Kids."

Summer always seems to fly by, and before we know it, backpacks will be packed, alarm clocks will be set, and our Canyon Creek Elementary school will once again be buzzing with excitement!

Round Rock ISD students return to class on Wednesday, August 19, 2026.

As our neighborhood prepares for another wonderful school year, here are a few friendly reminders:

๐Ÿ“š Watch for children walking and biking to school.
๐ŸšŒ Allow a little extra time for school zone traffic.
๐Ÿš— Please slow down in school zones and neighborhood streets.
๐Ÿšธ Be patient during morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up.
๐Ÿ’™ Let's all do our part to help keep our students, teachers, crossing guards, and families safe.

To all of our students, from those walking into kindergarten for the very first time to our seniors beginning their final year, we wish you a school year filled with learning, friendship, growth, and wonderful memories.

Hereโ€™s to another fantastic year in one of Austin's most amazing communities!

Have a safe and successful 2026โ€“2027 school year!

Good morning, Dorie... SLOW DOWN! That's the most important message when school starts up. I live within walking distance of five schools... and I see crazy driving at the start of each school year.

Dorie, gosh, the summer sure seemed to sail by, and Austin goes back pretty early.ย  I think Aurora goes back the first week of August.

Hi Dorie:

Canyon Creek residents will all appreciate these helpful tips as the kids head back to school. The summer sure went fast - Carlsbad kids go back on the 24th and it's always a big adjustment with the increased foot, bike and car traffic around the schools. Everyone needs to take extra care, be watchful, and not rush!

I am sure that the kids are excited to get back to school, and parents are excited to get them out of their hair for a bit, haha.

Two more weeks and it happens here, Dorie. Being more mindful will be most appreciated, especially near schools and crosswalks!
