Blanco Middle

Tucked in the Texas Hill Country along the Blanco River, Blanco Middle School punches well above its weight for a small-town campus, with math and science scores that land it comfortably in the top quarter of middle schools statewide. Blanco itself is one of those charming, tight-knit communities where Friday night lights and live music on the square still mean something, and that sense of community clearly carries into the school. Families drawn to small-class-size learning, outdoor recreation, and a slower pace of life — without sacrificing solid academics — will find a lot to like here.
