Hunt School

Tucked away in the scenic Texas Hill Country along the Guadalupe River, Hunt School is a small but mighty campus where students consistently punch well above their weight — especially in science, where it ranks among the top schools in the state. Families who choose Hunt are often drawn to the tight-knit, rural character of the community, where kids are known by name and the outdoors is practically part of the curriculum. It's the kind of place that appeals to families looking for a slower pace of life without sacrificing strong academic outcomes.
