Schools in Alpine ISD · Brewster County

Brewster County covers more square miles than some states, and its five public schools reflect the realities of deep West Texas — small enrollments, long distances between towns, and a statewide ranking profile that sits mostly in the middle of the pack. No school here reaches the top quartile, but Alpine High School leads the county at the 75th percentile statewide, a solid mark for a remote district. Marathon Independent School District follows at the 64th percentile. Families relocating to Alpine, Terlingua, or Marathon will find modest but functional public options shaped more by geography than by competition.
