How to Apply

Thank you for your interest in the River Horse Academy!  Any student who wishes to qualify as an applicant for RHA must be actively enrolled and in attendance at Hutto High School. In addition, students must gain written approval from the following people:  1) Parents; 2) Principal or Assistant Principal; & 3) Counselor.  Your Counselor will go over with you, your needs and goals, and determine if you are ready to apply, and will help you submit the River Horse application. Once your application is received, you will be placed on a waiting list for admission to RHA.  Please understand that placement on the waiting list does not guarantee that you will be admitted to RHA. Space is very limited, so we want to make sure that every student that is accepted is ready and willing to put in the work to reach their goals. 

Furthermore, the waiting list grows daily, and applicants are prioritized based on greatest urgency and need; therefore, students who are only a few credits behind or whose credit recovery can be completed while attending Hutto High School may remain on the waiting list while newer applicants get admitted.

It is a privlege to be accepted into the River Horse Academy, so let us know why you should be the next scholar accepted!
