About the Location

Park Features

Nestled in the heart of the Barton Hills neighborhood, this 4.76-acre public park shares its space with Barton Hills Elementary School. This community-school arrangement makes the space available to both students and local residents.

The playground has equipment that caters to kids of different ages, making it a go-to spot for families. The park features tennis courts and a basketball court for sports enthusiasts.

Recreation Opportunities

The multi-use field is fantastic for everything from casual frisbee tosses to organized community gatherings. Need to stretch your legs? Walking trails wind through the park, providing a quiet space for exercise and enjoying the surroundings.

One of the park's best features has to be its mature trees, which cast cooling shade across the grounds - a blessing during those scorching Texas summers!

Community Involvement

Local residents have been active in enhancing the park over the years. In recent years, community efforts have breathed new life into Barton Hills School Park. Check out the mosaic art installation on the retaining walls near the playground, a colorful display of neighborhood creativity.

The park continues to develop through a master planning process that guides future improvements.

School and Public Access

Barton Hills School Park beautifully balances its dual role in the community. During school hours, it represents an outdoor classroom and recreation space for elementary students. After school hours, the park becomes available to neighbors and visitors for recreation, exercise, or relaxation.
