Students can begin their education at Sampson-Howard Elementary School, which is graded an A by Niche. Travis Science Academy changed its name in 2011 from Travis Middle School. The school is part of the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme. Temple High School also is an International Baccalaureate school and offers Advanced Placement courses. The high school also provides Career and Technical Education. Both the middle and high school earn a B-minus from Niche. Local community college Temple College also sits within the neighborhood.Local restaurants and nearby Temple Mall
South of U.S. Route 190 is a variety of shopping. In Market Place Shopping Center is H-E-B, Dollar Tree and bealls, a clothing store. “A place that’s kind of popping is Cotton Patch Café,” says Pauly. “It’s in the mall; a lot of people go there.” Temple Mall has almost 60 different businesses, including anchor store Dillard’s. “Student-wise, there’s a lot of fast-food places nearby,” Pauly says. “You could walk there, but a lot of people would rather drive.” There are several restaurants scattered throughout TMED, including Bill’s Grill and Los Mini Tacos. University housing is “right across from a gas station, so it gets a lot of late-night visitors,” Pauly says.

Access to Interstate 35 in Temple
Two miles from downtown Temple, Interstate 35 is to the west of the neighborhood. Temple residents have access to The Hop, a public transportation system that works similarly to Uber. U.S. Route 190 acts as the southern border and is an east-west highway that covers parts of Texas and Louisiana.Bungalows and ranch-style homes with some university housing
The neighborhood is primarily composed of cozy bungalows and ranch-style houses. Most homes were built in the 1950s and range in price from $139,000 to $245,000, depending on the size of the home and the number of bedrooms. TMED is laid out in a grid pattern, with parallel streets through the residential portions. Homes usually have a driveway; attached and detached garages scattered throughout. Some streets have connecting sidewalks, but they don’t cover the entire neighborhood. Fenced-in backyards, with either chain-link or wood, are common. There are large, mature trees with branches that cover portions of the homes and the yards. University Courtyard Apartments also sit within TMED.

Recreation for veterans, young athletes and nature lovers
Scott and White Park sits next to Travis Science Academy and near Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Temple. This 12-acre park has two baseball fields, a tennis court, a basketball court and green space throughout. Next to the Veterans Hospital is Tarrant Lake Park, with a playset designed to look like a helicopter. Summit Recreation Center has an indoor rock-climbing wall in addition to basketball, racquetball and tennis courts. Friars Creek Trail weaves through sections of the community college.

Youth Club and recreation summer clubs
Ralph Wilson Youth Club offers both after-school activities and summer programs. Summit Recreation Center also hosts summer camps for ages 5 to 12, usually featuring a sport of the week, such as volleyball or basketball. “Pretty often in the Temple Mall, there’s a small carnival or circus,” says Pauly. “They’ll leave and go to Killeen and other small cities before coming back.” In December, Temple hosts the Annual City of Temple Christmas Parade. Now in its 78th year, the parade has a theme for each year that floats are built around.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
