Austwell-tivoli High School

Nestled in the small coastal communities of Austwell and Tivoli along the shores of San Antonio Bay, this tiny rural high school serves families rooted in the fishing, farming, and ranching culture of Refugio County. With stronger math performance than its English scores, it may appeal to families who value hands-on, practical learning in a tight-knit setting where teachers genuinely know every student by name. Life here is quiet and close to the water — if you're drawn to wide-open Gulf Coast landscapes and a true small-town upbringing, this is the kind of school where community and classroom are hard to separate.
