Lol wut? I lived in Austin last year and I've never seen schools that compare. Those high schools are better than most major universities I've seen in Louisiana. I've lived in NC, CA, went to college in CT, and lived briefly in MA and none of those school systems compare to TX.


Check every major school ranking website. Texas is always in the 20s, high 20s in a lot of cases. Sorry to bust your bubble, but it's not ranked that way. They might have some very good schools, but so do these states.

For sure, but a family of reasonable means can find a neighborhood in any of the major cities in Texas that their kids can get a good education. It might mean living in cheesy as frick burbia or downsizing in a better school zone but its doable .


Louisiana and other southern states do not provide this beyond magnet schools.
