Back-to-School: New Home Edition
Start the School Year Strong in a First America Homes Community
There’s nothing like the excitement of a new school year: fresh
supplies, big goals and new routines. But what if the back-to-school season
also meant a fresh start in a brand-new home? At First America Homes, we build
communities with families in mind, featuring great schools, convenient commutes
and amenities that make everyday life easier (and more fun).
If you're searching for a new home that sets your family up
for success this school year and beyond, here are just a few reasons why our
communities make the grade:
Onsite Schools = Peace of Mind
Being close to school makes mornings easier and gives kids
(and parents) a little more freedom and flexibility. Several First America
Homes communities are designed with onsite schools in mind:
- Granger
Pines – Located in Conroe, TX, Granger Pines features Hope Elementary School,
right inside the community! Families love the walkable convenience and the
strong support from Conroe ISD.
- Katzer
Ranch – In northeast San Antonio, this growing community also
includes brand-new Honor
Elementary School within the neighborhood, helping keep
commutes short and students connected.
- Hickory
Ridge (Coming 2026) – Big things are ahead in this new home
community in Elmendorf, Tx. A future onsite school will offer the perfect
blend of education and neighborhood living just outside the front door.
- Splendora
Fields – While not an onsite school, we’re excited to welcome the
brand-new, Peach Creek Elementary
School just minutes from First America Homes’ Splendora Fields Community
in Splendora, TX.
Top-Rated School Districts
Great schools are a priority for many homebuyers, and
several of our communities are zoned to high-performing ISDs that families
trust:
Conroe ISD
Conroe
ISD consistently ranks among the top districts in Texas, offering
advanced academics, robust extracurriculars and excellent college prep.

Easy Commutes = More Time Together
Whether it’s getting to school, practice or work, First
America Homes communities are thoughtfully located with families in mind. Many
are just minutes from major highways like I-45, Hwy 59, I-10, and Loop 1604, making
daily drives faster and easier.
