15 Best School Districts in Austin

April 12, 2015 By Rebecca Jacks

Schools are a major factor in determining where you want to buy a home in Austin. Even if you don’t have school age children, or your kids attend private schools, the quality of schools is something to consider. In Austin, the resale market is driven largely by quality of schools. The better the school district, the more in demand the home will be.

Which Austin Schools Districts Are the Best?

Though you can compare test schools and assign ratings to schools and districts, you will get conflicting opinions about which schools are rated better. GreatSchools.org and SchoolDigger.com have their own rating systems and Children at Risk (a Texas non-profit children’s advocacy group) has a different rating system. Here, we’ll show you the 2014 Children at Risk Austin School District ratings to come up with the 15 best school districts in Austin.
