Elementary Schools Presently, the subdivisions of Aliana north of West Airport Boulevard and east of Westmoor Drive are zoned to Carolyn and Vernon Madden Elementary, and all other subdivisions are zoned to Malala Yousafzai Elementary. In December 2025, Fort Bend ISD proposed a rezoning agenda to address the overcrowding at nearby James C. Neill Elementary School in the Harvest Green master-planned community, just west of Aliana. This proposal was finalized in March 2026. Aliana will be split into 3 elementary schools in the 2026-2027 school year. As a result, part of Neil Elementary will be rezoned to Malala Yousafzai Elementary, in order to relieve overcrowding at Neill Elementary. - The sections south of West Airport Blvd will be served by Malala Yousafzai Elementary School. - The sections north of West Airport Blvd and south of West Bellfort Blvd will be served by Carolyn & Vernon Madden Elementary School. - The sections north of West Bellfort Blvd, including Windsor and Bretton Woods subdivisions, will be served by Mary Austin Holley Elementary School. The rezoning of the Aliana subdivisions Windsor and Bretton Woods to Holley Elementary was largely received negatively by the Aliana community. One of the concerns raised was due to Holley Elementary not being part of the Garcia Middle School feeder pattern, with a majority of students enrolled in Holley Elementary being zoned to Hodges Bend Middle School. Another recurring complaint was that Holley Elementary is perceived as a lower performing school due to the schools state required testing results falling below average in math, science, and reading subjects. Middle Schools The entire community is zoned to Macario Garcia Middle School. Previously, James Bowie Middle School served the part of the neighborhood north of West Airport. High Schools The portions of Aliana south of West Airport are served by Stephen F. Austin High School, and the rest by William B. Travis High School. References External links Aliana Community
