School Overview

Tucked into the heart of West Texas oil country, James Bowie Fine Arts Academy stands out in Midland as a school that blends serious academic performance with a genuine commitment to the arts — a rare combination in a city better known for its energy industry than its creative scene. Families who want their kids challenged in math and science *and* nurtured creatively will find a natural fit here, and the school's strong numbers across the board suggest it delivers on both fronts. Midland itself is a tight-knit, hardworking community where the economy runs hot alongside oil prices, and for families planting roots in this corner of the Permian Basin, Bowie offers something a little different from the typical neighborhood school.
