Live Oak Academy

Live Oak Academy sits in Buda, one of the fastest-growing towns just south of Austin, where new subdivisions and a small-town feel are somehow still coexisting. The school's academics are solidly middle-of-the-road within Hays CISD, which itself is managing rapid growth across the board, so families here are largely neighbors building a community together as much as they're choosing a school. It's a reasonable fit for families putting down roots in the area who value proximity to Austin without the city price tag, and are willing to grow alongside a school that's still finding its footing.
