All About TISD

Thrall ISD is a rural district located 45 miles northeast of Austin on US HWY 79 covering 149 square miles in Eastern Williamson County and serving the small communities of Thrall, Beaukiss, Shiloh, Noack, Hare, Structure, and Sandoval. We are dedicated to ensuring that every student develops a work ethic along with the knowledge and skills to become a productive, contributing, and responsible citizen. Our small school and class size setting provides the optimum learning environment for all TISD students.

Thrall ISD consists of three campuses--Thrall Elementary School (PreKindergarten-4th grades), Thrall Middle School (5th-8th grades) and Thrall High School (9th-12th grades). We are very proud of our outstanding students and staff.

Located within the city limits of Thrall, the District is a central entity of a family-oriented community with a population of approximately 850. The City of Thrall was founded in 1876 as a railroad station on the International-Great Northern line and was first called Stiles Switch. The Stiles School was opened in the 1880's. When a post office-general store was opened in 1901, the name Thrall was chosen for the community, after Homer S. Thrall, a Methodist minister. In 1908 Stiles School was moved to a new larger building and renamed Thrall School. Thrall ISD was established in 1908.
