Schools
Both Austin ISD and Round Rock ISD covers this area. We do not publish campus attendance zones: they are assigned by street address and can change, so confirm the current assignment for a specific property with the district. The boundary between the two districts does not follow the neighborhood line, which makes checking the specific address more important here than in most places.

What schools are near Great Hills?
Two districts operate in this part of Austin, Austin ISD and Round Rock ISD, and the boundary between them does not follow the neighborhood line. Hill Elementary School on 8601 Tallwood Drive and Anderson High School on 8403 Mesa Drive stand in or beside the neighborhood. That is where the campuses are, not a statement about who attends them. Austin ISD assigns schools by street address, and assignments can change. Check the current one for a specific property with Austin ISD School Finder, which is the authoritative source. We do not publish attendance zones, because a zone we printed last year is not a zone you can rely on this year.
