Best Public Schools in New Braunfels, TX

Summary:

The city of New Braunfels, Texas is home to 27 schools across two school districts - Comal Independent School District (ISD) and New Braunfels Independent School District (ISD). The schools serve students from elementary through high school, with 15 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, and 7 high schools. While the Comal ISD schools generally outperform the New Braunfels ISD schools, there are standout performers in both districts.

Memorial Early College High School in Comal ISD ranks 20th out of 1,987 Texas high schools and has a 5-star rating, with a 100% four-year graduation rate and exceptional test scores. Hoffmann Lane Elementary and Church Hill Middle, also in Comal ISD, are among the top-performing elementary and middle schools in the state. However, there are significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, which appear to be correlated with socioeconomic factors like free/reduced lunch rates.

Overall, the New Braunfels area offers a diverse range of educational options, with both high-achieving and lower-performing schools. Parents and students should carefully research the specific schools and districts to find the best fit for their needs and goals. The data suggests that strong early childhood education is a key predictor of later academic success, so families may want to prioritize elementary school performance when choosing a school.
