Gause Elementary

Tucked away in the small community of Gause in Milam County, this little rural school punches above its weight — landing in the top third of Texas elementary schools despite serving a tight-knit farming community far from any major metro area. Families here get something harder to find in bigger districts: a genuinely small-school environment where kids aren't just a number, with solid English and Science scores that suggest real instructional focus. If you're raising a family in the rolling central Texas countryside between Bryan-College Station and Waco, Gause Elementary is the kind of neighborhood school worth knowing about.
