Redwater Junior High

Redwater Junior High sits in the small, tight-knit community of Redwater, just northeast of Texarkana, where the pace is slower but the academic expectations are anything but. Ranking in the 90th percentile statewide, this junior high punches well above its size, with particularly strong math scores that rival schools in much larger districts. Families who want a close community feel without sacrificing academic rigor — and who don't mind trading big-city conveniences for friendly neighbors and Friday night football — will find a lot to love here.
