Thank you to everyone in Grand Prairie ISD for your patience and understanding as we continue our work to ensure the safety of students and staff. On March 3, 2021, the Texas Education Agency issued public health guidance and updates for school districts. These new guidelines are aligned with the guidelines we currently have in place. GPISD will continue to require face masks and other mitigation strategies.

As we return to school virtually on August 17 and eventually in-person, GPISD will continue to provide healthful meals to our students. Even though our district is beginning the year fully virtual, we still have opportunities for your child(ren) to receive healthful meals. To see if your child is eligible for free meals or reduced meal prices, please visit this page: https://www.gpisd.org/MealApplication 

On August 27, the GPISD Board of Trustees voted to set the tax rate for 2020-2021 at $1.5097 per $100 of valuation. This is a decrease of nearly $0.03 from last year ($0.02865). 

The overall tax rate is made up of two parts:

• $1.0547 for the purpose of maintenance and operations
• $0.4550 for the purpose of payment of principal and interest on debt

Including this year’s tax rate decrease, the GPISD Board of Trustees has lowered the tax rate by just over eight and a half cents over a two-year period.

THE GRAND PRAIRIE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT ADOPTED A TAX RATE THAT WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS THAN LAST YEAR’S TAX RATE.

At the June 22, 2020 called meeting of the GPISD Board of Trustees, the Board made a bold statement to address issues of racial equity in our community. Visit the page to read the resolution.
