The district is managed by a seven-member board. The superintendent is Janeé Carter.[2] The district educates around 860 students, in four schools, and employs about 65 teachers.[3]
Standard & Poor's rated its general obligation debt as 'A'. It described the financial position as "consistently strong" in view of state support for its operations.[4]
The district was the subject of a Texas Supreme Court case in July 1974. A student challenged a school regulation that prohibits married students from participating in extracurricular activities. The court decided that this was a matter for the district's board to decide on the policy. This was upheld on appeal.[5]
In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.[6]
