Schools in Garrison ISD · Nacogdoches County

Six of Nacogdoches County's 24 ranked public schools land in the top quartile statewide — a strong showing for a largely rural East Texas county spanning nine districts. Leading the way is Stephen F. Austin State University Charter School, which ranks at the 97th percentile statewide, with Central Heights High School close behind at the 92nd.
