Milano High School

Milano is a small rural community in Milam County, about halfway between Austin and Waco, where life moves a little slower and everyone knows your neighbor's name — and this tight-knit high school reflects that spirit perfectly. For a small-town Texas school, Milano High punches well above its weight academically, ranking in the 84th percentile statewide with particularly strong English scores, making it a solid choice for families who want a rigorous education without the noise and anonymity of a larger district. Families drawn to wide-open spaces, a close community feel, and a school where students aren't just a face in the crowd will find a lot to love here.
