GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. 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.

My favorite part of attending Austin High School is being surrounded by the incredible school spirit. The band and ROTC program is always representing our sports teams in the best ways. I also greatly appreciate the kind relationship students have with admins and staff around campus which really makes you feel at home.

My time at Austin has been fun. I this is only my second and last year at Austin. When I transferred I was welcomed by everyone. In sports you actually feel like a family where everyone has fun together. I live how the teachers actually cared about their students and help guide them. I'm grateful to my teachers who was there for me in a bad time in my life. At Austin I got connected with a poet who help me publish my own works of poetry. Where I got to perform in front of 200 hundred people. This year I got to go with cheer and band to Natchitoches, Louisiana to walk a parade and go to the festival afterwards. It was so beautiful. At Austin I get to experience things I would have never experienced before.

Don't come here, principals don't help you, some teachers are cool and some help you but not all of them. if someone gets in trouble it goes very lightly, the school is very ugly and they don't put money to good use, like fixing bathrooms more computers but only on offices and more gates. if you lik...
