    The 2022-2023 school year analysis covers 582 public schools in the San Antonio area including 349 elementary schools and 157 middle schools and 76 high schools.

    “We are honored to have three campuses among this year’s top-ranking schools in the San Antonio area,” says Comal ISD Superintendent of Schools Dr. John E. Chapman. “This is a testament to our campus leadership which truly strives to meet the needs of every student who walks through our doors. They know every student by name and by need. They not only teach them; they care for them.”

    For the past 19 years, Children at Risk has ranked Texas public schools to help parents, educators and community members better understand how their local schools are performing.

    “It is an honor to be ranked as the #2 high school in the San Antonio area,” says Joseph Murguia, principal of Memorial Early College High School with Northeast Lakeview College. “We are proud of our students’ performance and growth, and we celebrate our hardworking and caring staff. Together, we have established a culture of high academic and behavioral expectations, allowing for the continued success of every student.”
