We are so excited to get ON THE ROAD AGAIN for 2025-26! We plan to journey far and wide during the year in academics, athletics, fine arts, technology, innovation, tradition, and pride. All Back-to-School Information is found here!

Welcome to Jacksonville ISD, an exceptional school district big enough to offer incredible opportunities while small enough to know every student by name. We are proud of the tremendous success we’ve had in providing a high-quality student experience across all grade levels.

Through the JISD dual enrollment program, our students have access to 62 college or post-secondary credits through 20 different courses at no cost. This opportunity gives our students a significant head start in pursuing career pathways.

We are proud of the Downtown Historic Tomato Bowl, located at the end of Commerce Street on Austin Street in the heart of downtown Jacksonville. One of the last remaining downtown stadiums in Texas, the Tomato Bowl has a rich 80+ year-long history. In 2025, the Tomato Bowl was voted the Best High School Stadium in Texas by Dave Campbell's Football.

We have something for everyone! SO many activities, clubs, teams, traditions, and programs are offered in JISD. Come be part of what makes Jacksonville ISD so special.

We strive to offer a variety of program choices to students at every grade level. Did you know that our elementary campuses each have a unique focus, and we love to see our students thrive. Check out the Fred Douglass Dual Language Program, East Side ALC, Joe Wright STEM Clubs, and the West Side Leader in Me program!

We value offering our students a wide array of co-curricular opportunities to develop and showcase their talents. This instills desirable character traits for future citizens of Jacksonville, such as leadership, collaboration, grit, resilience, and integrity.
