Sundown Junior High

Sundown Junior High sits in the small agricultural community of Sundown, out in the wide-open expanse of West Texas near the New Mexico border, and it punches well above its size — especially in math, where students score in the 93rd percentile statewide. Families looking for a tight-knit school community where kids aren't just a number will feel right at home here, as small-town ISD life tends to mean strong relationships between teachers and students. It's a great fit for families who appreciate that rural Texas grit and want their middle schooler in a high-performing environment without the noise of a bigger district.
