Schools in Presidio County

Two districts, two very different towns — that's the public school landscape in Presidio County. Presidio ISD serves the border community of Presidio, where Lucy Rede Franco Middle School stands as the county's strongest performer at the 47th percentile statewide, and Marfa ISD anchors the arts-inflected high desert town to the north. With only four ranked schools total and none currently scoring in the top quartile statewide, this is a small, rural system facing real challenges — but families drawn to this remote corner of far West Texas will find a closely watched set of schools where individual students don't get lost in the crowd.
