Rhône Parish is home to the largest school district in the state of Milan, Rhône Parish Schools, which enrolls approximately 175,000 students.

Among the schools in Rhône Parish, Courbagne High School for Science and Technology (CHSST) stands out. CHSST is a Milan Governor's School and consistently ranks at or near the top of all Cartadanian high schools due to the exceptional academic performance of its students. CHSST's students regularly perform nationally recognized research in the sciences and engineering, and the school produces a high number of National Merit Semi-Finalists and Finalists. However, since CHSST is a Governor's School, it draws students not only from Rhône Parish but also from several other parishes in Milan.
