Working together to improve Dallas ISD!

Bringing to life the mission of Dallas ISD of educating all students for success, is a community effort.

Dallas ISD is grateful for the support of parents and community members who said “Yes” to our recent 13-cent Tax Ratification Election (TRE). Your vote will provide $126 million in annual funding to help us support initiatives proven to boost student achievement and to improve services to Dallas ISD students in multiple ways:

Increases in kindergarten readiness, including more classes and facilities, better quality programs and more effective teachers.
Investment in racial equity that will expand the cultural competence of our staff, grow student and staff leadership opportunities and improve equity in facility improvements and operations.
Provide more students a best-fit school by launching more choice schools and expanding academic options.
Provide compensation for teachers and staff that supports and rewards excellence.

The TRE will bring the tax rate to $1.17 per $100 of property value. This, for example, will translate to about a $20 monthly increase for the owner of a home valued at $184,574.

Meanwhile, Dallas voters also approved Dallas ISD propositions to support a $75 million bond for new buses and a bus barn, a $75 million bond to refund outstanding maintenance tax notes, and the purchase of attendance credits.

Thank you for your support! We remain strongly committed to providing all Dallas ISD students a quality education and to supporting our educators so Dallas ISD becomes the best urban district in the country.
