STISD is consistently ranked among the best in the state and nation.
STISD is the only all-magnet school district in the state, and offers Valley students an educational alternative. The district provides a personal environment, a strong scholastic program and hands-on training in vocational career fields.
Because STISD is a public school district, there is no cost for students to attend one of its six campuses, and bus transportation is also free of charge.
STISD schools maintain an open enrollment policy, meaning any student that wants to attend one of our six campuses can as long as he or she resides within the tri-county area we serve.
At STISD, meet curious, collaborative and driven students just like you.
At STISD, there's more to experience than solely academics. Explore what life is like as an STISD student, and be part of the many extracurricular competitive activities and social clubs.
STISD seeks to employ individuals who are committed to serving students and our communities, and can help advance our goals of consistently learning and always innovating.
By being employed at STISD, one gains the opportunity and the responsibility to make a difference within the world of education and student growth.
The community here at STISD is diverse, interactive and vibrant. We take pride in each and every position that plays a part in making our district unique and consistently ranked among the best in the state and nation.
If you are looking for spunk and excitement and non-traditional methods of learning, the STISD community is the perfect match and offers endless opportunities.
