Our School

Opened in 2008, Blanton Elementary is named after Annie Webb Blanton, the first woman in Texas elected to a state office. The school serves children in northern Lantana and the Guyer High School attendance zone. It is adjacent to Harpool Middle School. 

Blanton Elementary is one of only 500 schools and districts across the United States and Canada to be named a Professional Learning Community (PLC) Model School by Solution Tree, which recognizes sustained success in student achievement.
