Welcome to the Rockwall Independent School District’s website and to our school district. I hope you will find the district’s site both informative and easy to navigate as we continue to expand our technology efforts.
Rockwall lies just across Lake Ray Hubbard approximately 23 miles east of Dallas. While embracing the culture of the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex, Rockwall simultaneously maintains its traditional small-town values. These are exciting times as Rockwall ISD continues to be one of the fastest-growing districts in North Texas. We are fortunate to have a community that supports our school system and our students. Community members are supportive because they, too, are proud of the quality of education and the endless opportunities awaiting our students.
In light of our continued growth and development, we retain a solid foundation built upon past traditions. Our district educates over 13,700 students in grades Pre-K through high school. Although we incorporate technology and the latest educational research into our instructional programs, we work diligently to look at each child individually. We've made it our goal to be an exemplary district that focuses on student achievement and meets the needs of all students.
Our district has a rich legacy of success due to teachers, staff members, parental involvement, community support and a dedicated Board of Trustees. A few notable achievements include:
- SAT and ACT scores considerably higher than state and national composite scores
- Professional Development Program
- Early Childhood Education
- Active PTA Volunteer Program
- Financial ratings
On behalf of our Board of Trustees and staff, I would like to thank you for visiting our web site and encourage you to visit our school district. Please feel free to contact us at any time for additional information.
Dr. Gene Burton
Superintendent of Schools
