🏆 #1 in Austin MSA, #1 in Texas — Texas Education Agency 2026 A-F Accountability Ratings
Austin’s highest-rated public high school, LASA H S, scored a perfect 99 in the Texas Education Agency’s 2025-26 accountability ratings—top in both the Austin metro and across Texas. This isn’t just academic excellence; it’s a real estate force multiplier. Families are moving not just for jobs, but for guaranteed access to elite public education. This is reshaping neighborhood demand, pricing, and long-term value across the Austin MSA.
