Reilly Elementary School is one of 367 schools nationwide to be named a 2020 National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Secretary of Education. The recognition is especially exceptional as the third-grade students were tested in Spanish as part of the campus dual-language program.

Part of the Austin Independent School District, Reilly offers rigorous academic programs for students in Pre-K through fifth grade. It is the first multilingual elementary school in Central Texas, offering English, Mandarin and Spanish.
