Experiment with the settings available by clicking the little icon to the right of the "Quality" box.
(The text should be on its own layer.)
I have a high-quality image that I need to save as a JPG that is 10K in size
Hate to break this to you, but a 10K is by no means a high quality image, or if it was, it’s not high quality anymore…
And no AFAIK, there is no way to compress parts of an image more than others
You can apply mask-based compression using Photoshop’s Variable Compression feature–the mask icon to the right of the Quality control (for the JPG format). Note that this produces mixed results and does not work well for all images. As others have said, however, 10KB is not a very high quality image (unless the dimensions are small, or the image is principally composed of solid or graduated colors).
The only way I know to achieve selective compression like this, is for a web page, by using slices so that image slice is made into its own file, be it JPEG, GIF, PNG, etc. On a web page those multiple slices would be assembled in a table so as to appear to be a single image.

See what Trevor and I said. If you run Save for Web on a layered file you can select one compression for the text layer and another for the rest.
I’ve done it and it works!
Cool, I really did not kow that (says the guy who only runs SFW to post an image on pixentral) I’m print, not web (at least as far as images are concerned, I do write for a webzine)
OR use selective compression and an alpha channel with SFW or ImageReady…
