Poth Junior High

Poth Junior High quietly punches well above its weight for a small-town South Texas school, landing in the top 7% in the state with especially standout math scores that rival much larger suburban campuses. Poth itself is a tight-knit agricultural community about 40 miles southeast of San Antonio, where Friday night football still matters and neighbors actually know each other — the kind of place where a school feels like the center of town. Families who want serious academics without the chaos of a big district, and who value that small-community feel where teachers know your kid by name, will find a lot to like here.
