Published guideline
Transportation is generally available at two miles or more from the assigned school.
Round Rock ISD also notes a hazardous transportation process that may apply to some addresses within two miles. The district makes the official measurement and final eligibility decision.
Why this helps when you are comparing homes
A family considering several homes should not have to rebuild the same transportation research in several different places. Family Move Plan gives each address the same first-pass process: match the district boundary, filter nearby public schools by grade, calculate estimated road routes, add the published RRISD guideline, and keep the official district page close.
Understand the location
Match the address to the NCES Round Rock ISD boundary rather than relying only on a mailing city or ZIP code.
Compare practical distance
Use estimated road miles to compare several potential homes with a consistent method.
Know what to verify

Frequently asked questions
Does living two miles from school guarantee Round Rock ISD bus service?
No. The published distance guideline is useful context, but Round Rock ISD determines the assigned school, official measurement, route, program eligibility, hazardous-route status, and final transportation decision.
Can an RRISD student within two miles still qualify?
Some addresses within two miles may qualify under the district hazardous transportation rating system. The district must confirm whether an address is included.
Does Family Move Plan identify the assigned RRISD school?
The current search shows nearby grade-appropriate public schools within the matched district. Nearby does not necessarily mean assigned, so school assignment must be confirmed with Round Rock ISD.
How does Family Move Plan estimate the route?
The tool uses Google Routes to estimate road distance from the entered address to nearby grade-appropriate schools. RRISD publishes its own measurement method, so the estimate may differ from the official district calculation.
