Academy High School

Academy High School sits in the small community of Little River, tucked into the rural stretches of Bell County between Temple and Georgetown, where the pace is slower and the school feels genuinely connected to its tight-knit community. The school shows some real strengths in English, where students score well above the state middle, though math is an area families should keep an eye on. It's a solid fit for families drawn to smaller-town living who want a school where kids aren't just a number, while still being a reasonable drive from the amenities of the larger cities nearby.
