• Zavala Elementary began as a traditional elementary school when it was opened in 1951. In the 1980's, Zavala became one of ECISD's first choice schools.

    Over the course of 25+ years, Zavala's choice focus changed several times. Most recently, in 2018, Zavala became a PreK-2nd grade campus with a focus on Community and Careers.

    Travis Elementary is our partner school, offering classes for 3rd- 5th Grades. Zavala students experience a rich curriculum focused on real-world experiences and enrichment through the Community and Career Academy.
