Rodriguez Elementary

Rodriguez Elementary sits in San Marcos, a lively Central Texas college town where the Blanco River and Texas State University give the community a relaxed, outdoorsy energy that feels distinct from the sprawling suburbs nearby. The school's strongest suit is science, where students perform well above average — a nice fit for curious kids in a city that has a natural appreciation for the environment and hands-on learning. Families looking for a solid neighborhood school with room to grow, set against the backdrop of one of the most affordable and livable small cities between Austin and San Antonio, will find Rodriguez a comfortable choice.
