Olney High School

Olney High School sits in the heart of a small West Texas ranching community, where Friday night football and tight-knit class sizes create the kind of school experience that's hard to find in larger cities. The school punches well above its weight academically, with particularly strong English and math scores that put it in the top quarter of Texas high schools — impressive for a rural district this size. Families who value a close community, personalized attention from teachers, and a slower pace of life in the rolling plains of Young County will find a lot to like here.
