    About Keller ISD...

    Keller ISD has 42 campuses serving more than 34,000 students, and has been one of the state's fastest growing school districts over the past two decades, more than doubling its enrollment. As the District nears build-out, growth has slowed, the quest to provide our students with exceptional educational opportunities still continues.

    The District serves portions of the cities of Colleyville, Fort Worth, Haltom City, Hurst, North Richland Hills, Southlake, Watauga, and Westlake and the entire City of Keller. Its 51 square miles encompass the third-largest land area in Tarrant County.
