What Clear Creek ISD does

Clear Creek Independent School District (CCISD) is a public K-12 school district organized as a political subdivision of the State of Texas under the Texas Education Code, operating from its administrative headquarters at 2425 East Main Street in League City. The district serves over 38,000 students across 45 campuses spanning 100 square miles and 13 municipalities in Harris and Galveston counties, making it the 29th largest district in Texas. Its 5,000+ qualified staff members make CCISD the second-largest employer in the Clear Lake area.

CCISD delivers Pre-K through 12th grade education through a structured campus network of 27 elementary schools, 10 intermediate schools, 7 high schools, and 1 alternative school (Clear Path). The district offers specialized magnet programs including Dual Language Two-Way, E-STEM, Science Magnet, WAVE/Gifted & Talented, Leader in Me, Robotics/Coding/Computational Thinking, and STREAM of Innovation. High schools of choice include Clear Horizons Early College High School (enabling college credit attainment), P-Tech programs, and Clear View High School. The technology stack relies on industry-standard K-12 platforms: Skyward Family Access (student information system), Canvas (learning management system), ClassLink (SSO), ParentSquare (family communication, branded as connectCCISD), SchoolMint (out-of-district transfers), Naviance (college/career planning), SchoolCafé (meal management), and Finalsite (website CMS).

As a government entity, CCISD's revenue model is fundamentally tax-funded rather than commercial. Primary funding comes from local property taxes, state foundation funds, and federal grants under ESSA including Title I (Improving Basic Programs), Title II (Supporting Effective Instruction), Title III (Language Instruction for English Learners), and Title IV (Enrichment and Well-Rounded Education). Supplementary recurring revenue includes a $100 annual fee for out-of-district transfers (waived for employees' children), tuition-based Pre-K for ineligible families, and community partnership contributions. Distribution is exclusively direct: in-district families enroll via Skyward by zoning, while out-of-district families apply through SchoolMint on a space-available basis.
