History
Three new Tomball ISD campuses were scheduled to open in 2015.[2]
In November 2017 voters approved Bond 2017 - a $275 million bond program that will fund two new schools, an agricultural barn, a swim training facility, a District stadium, expansion to Tomball Memorial High School and renovations to Tomball Intermediate. The funds will also be utilized for instructional technology, school buses, and land purchases as well as the installation of utilities.
In 2018, Tomball ISD was named as a finalist in the 17th Annual H-E-B Excellence in Education Awards program in the large school district division. The award recognizes outstanding school districts demonstrating a commitment to student achievement through innovative programs, parent and community involvement, and professional development opportunities for teachers and administrators.
Tomball ISD now encompasses 83 square miles in northwest Harris County and southwest Montgomery County, and is located approximately 30 miles from downtown Houston. The district currently educates over 16,000 students (2017-2018) at 20 campuses.
