Heritage Academy of Del Rio

Tucked along the Texas-Mexico border in Del Rio, Heritage Academy punches well above its weight for a small border community, especially in math and science where it ranks in the top 15–20% statewide. Families looking for a structured, academically focused alternative to the traditional public school experience will find a lot to appreciate here, particularly if their kids lean toward STEM subjects. Del Rio itself has a tight-knit, bicultural character shaped by its proximity to Ciudad Acuña and Laughlin Air Force Base, making it a genuinely unique place to grow up — and this school reflects that community's drive to offer something more.
