Best Schools in Marble Falls, TX 2020-2021 Update

The school year looks a bit different in 2020-21 but that won’t keep Marble Falls students from having great opportunities to learn and excel. As the new school year has just kicked off, we invite parents to check in with their schools weekly and help students and teachers remain safe and excited about learning.

Texas is currently giving school districts more flexibility to keep their school buildings closed to in-person instruction or open this fall according to Governor Greg Abbott. The Public Health Guidance for Education suggested school districts to stay virtual for the first three weeks to ensure safety procedures are in place before bringing students on campus, but Governor Abbott said these will have to be local-level decisions, and there will be flexibility and guidance provided to each district. See below for some current updates for our strong Marble Falls schools.
