Bellville Junior High

Bellville Junior High sits in the heart of Bellville, a small agricultural town in Austin County about an hour west of Houston — the kind of place where Friday night football still means something and neighbors actually know each other's names. The school lands solidly in the middle of the pack statewide, with math being a relative strength, and it serves families who are drawn to a tight-knit community feel over the buzz of a big suburban district. If you're looking for a slower pace of life with easy access to Houston when you need it, Bellville offers that classic small-town Texas upbringing that's harder and harder to find.
