Pupils in Montrose are divided between two separate middle school attendance boundaries. Lanier Middle School and Gregory-Lincoln Education Center serve separate sections of Neartown for middle school. All Montrose pupils are zoned to Lamar High School. The High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, a magnet high school, was in Montrose until January 2019 when it moved downtown and beginning in the fall of 2019, the Arabic Immersion Magnet School will move to HSPVA's former site. Beginning in 2018 Baylor College of Medicine Academy at Ryan also serves as a boundary option for students zoned to Blackshear, Lockhart, and MacGregor elementary schools.
