Clear Creek Independent School District (CCISD) is a school district based in League City, Texas, United States. The district serves most of the Clear Lake Area and some other neighboring parts of the Houston metropolitan area. CCISD is the 29th largest school district in Texas, spanning 103 square miles and serving approximately 40,000 students. The district operates 45 schools, consisting of 7 comprehensive high schools, 1 alternative high school, 10 intermediate schools, and 27 elementary schools. The Superintendent of Schools is Karen Engle.

Clear Creek ISD currently operates two football stadiums, Veterans Memorial Stadium and Challenger Columbia Stadium, both of which serve all five of the district's 6A high schools.

History

[edit]

Clear Creek ISD was formed in 1948 when the districts of Kemah, League City, Seabrook, and Webster were consolidated, deriving its name from nearby Clear Creek, which forms Clear Lake, one of the few natural lakes in Texas. CCISD continued operating Webster High School until Clear Creek High School opened in 1956. The district opened Clear Lake High School in 1972, Clear Brook High School in 1988, Clear Springs High School in 2008, and Clear Falls High School in 2010.[2]

In the 2000s, rising real estate costs in Galveston forced many families to move to other areas, including League City. This meant an influx of children out of Galveston ISD and into other school districts like Clear Creek ISD.[3]

On May 11, 2013 the district was successful in a vote securing $367 million to "...rebuild or improve 40+ year old schools; address student safety, security systems, repairs and enrollment growth; construct or expand co-curricular and extracurricular facilities for growth in programs; and improve wireless infrastructure and access to technology for 21st century learning."[4]

On May 6, 2017 the district was successful in a vote to approve a bond with largely the same purpose stated in 2013 "...to build new or rebuild schools, replace portables with permanent additions, renovate aging schools to bring them up to today’s learning standards, improve school and bus safety through the purchase of surveillance equipment and buses."[5] This second bond in 2017 for $487 million resulted in a 4-year total of US$854 million of funding over and above that allocated by the state for this purpose.

CCISD is the 29th largest school district in Texas. The total enrollment for the district is currently 42,008 students. According to the last CCISD reported actual financials (2024-25), the annual per student cost is over $12,000.[6]

Karen Engle has served as Superintendent of Schools for the Clear Creek Independent School District since December 2022, after being appointed by the CCISD Board of Trustees following her tenure as interim superintendent.[7] A graduate of CCISD, she has spent more than 25 years in public education, serving in a variety of leadership roles including teacher, campus administrator, principal, and district administrator before becoming superintendent. Under her leadership, CCISD has continued its focus on academic excellence, student achievement, leadership development, and community engagement. In 2024, the Texas PTA recognized Engle as its Superintendent of the year. [8] She earned a bachelor's degree from Baylor University, a master's degree from the University of Houston-Clear Lake, and a doctorate from Bethel University. [9]
