Schools in Rains County

Emory anchors all of schooling in Rains County, a single-district rural county where every public school operates under the Rains ISD umbrella. With just three campuses serving the community, families here have a straightforward — if limited — set of options. Rains High School is the county's strongest performer, sitting at the 55th percentile statewide, while the intermediate and junior high schools land in the lower quarter of Texas rankings. No school currently reaches the top quartile, so families prioritizing high statewide rankings may want to weigh that alongside the close-knit scale that comes with a one-district county.
