     Established in 1948 as a consolidated system, the Clear Creek Independent School District is widely recognized for its forward-looking educational techniques and diverse academic programs. Holding to the guiding principal that the welfare of the child is of utmost importance, the district strives to provide curriculum and facilities to accommodate the various aptitudes and educational needs of students from many backgrounds.

     To meet this goal, educational programs are designed to help all students develop to their maximum potential. The district fosters a solid elementary program, a broad secondary curriculum, specialized instruction for exceptional children, and challenges for the gifted and talented. The Clear Creek School District is backed by strong community support in its efforts to provide the type of quality education that will help students become creditable and well adjusted citizens.

     Boundaries of C.C.I.S.D. embrace 120 square miles in southern Harris County and northern Galveston County, and serve a population approaching 175,000 citizens. At one time, the community was primarily job-oriented toward the nation's aerospace program. In recent years, the area has become increasingly diversified with many residents employed in the Bayport Industrial complex and others in the ever-growing commercial establishments.

     The district has grown from a rural community with four small schools and an enrollment of less than 1,000 students to a suburban district with 27 modern neighborhood schools.

     The regular instructional program is enhanced by extra-curricular activities, including field trips and interscholastic competition. At the elementary levels, special music and physical education teachers are part of each school staff. Certified librarians and nurses are on duty in all schools.

     At the secondary levels, vocational education and college preparation courses are available. Programs and services are available for the handicapped, ages three through twenty-one, as well as for the gifted and talented students of the district. The school program also includes guidance counselors and diagnosticians.
