Robert G. Cole Junior-Senior High School
Robert G. Cole Middle and High School is the only public middle school and public high school for the Fort Sam Houston Independent School District, and is classified as a 3A school by the UIL. It is named after Medal of Honor recipient Lt. Col. Robert G. Cole, who was born on Fort Sam Houston.

Cole has been twice named a National Blue Ribbon School, in 1986-87 and again in 1990-91.[3] For the 2022-2023 school year, the school was given an "A" by the Texas Education Agency, with distinctions for Academic Achievement in Science and Post-Secondary Readiness.[4]
