What Susie Fuentes feeds into
Susie Fuentes starts one of the Lehman-side feeder paths. From here, students continue to Armando Chapa Middle and then to Lehman High:
This part of Kyle runs Susie Fuentes to Chapa to Lehman High. Kyle is split between Lehman and Jack C. Hays, so the high-school endpoint depends on the exact address. I confirm the current elementary, middle, and high school for any specific address before you write an offer.
Homes in the Susie Fuentes zone
Susie Fuentes serves central and east Kyle along Philomena Drive, a practical, family-heavy part of town with a mix of established neighborhoods and newer subdivisions near I-35 and the growing east side. It's a mid-priced entry into Hays CISD. The thing to know: this side of Kyle feeds Lehman rather than Jack C. Hays, and homes can sit in a MUD or PID, so I confirm both the zone and the tax picture for the address.
Central and east Kyle is a practical, mid-priced part of Hays CISD, with Susie Fuentes as a neighborhood school. It feeds Chapa and Lehman, not Jack C. Hays, and Kyle's two-high-school split trips buyers up. I confirm which high school the address feeds, and the tax district, before you're under contract.
How to confirm your address is zoned to Susie Fuentes
Use Hays CISD's official boundary lookup. The district publishes a find-my-school tool where you enter an address and it returns the assigned elementary, middle, and high school. That's the source of truth, not the real estate listing, which can carry outdated school data, especially in a district growing as fast as Hays.
Or ask me. Send me an address or a central or east Kyle pocket you're considering and I'll confirm the zone, pull the current middle and high school on the path, and flag anything that affects your decision.

When you're ready to look at homes, reach out and I'll map the zone to the right neighborhoods.
