The Winter 2026 issue of the Wooten Neighborhood Association newsletter reflects on a year of growth, reconnection, and forward momentum.
In 2025, WNA strengthened its foundation by expanding membership, adopting new technology, redesigning the website, resuming regular newsletters, and increasing transparency through monthly, streamed meetings. Community traditions like the Wootenanny, holiday decorating events, and neighborhood gatherings continued to bring neighbors together. The newsletter also includes important neighborhood updates, including advocacy efforts around a proposed Toyota dealership rezoning, officer elections, and the ongoing work of the Wooten Neighborhood Plan Contact Team.
School news highlights the return of students and teachers to the newly renovated Wooten Elementary, updates on Austin ISD’s consolidation plan, and the school’s transition to a dual-language campus.
