History

Mabank ISD has been around for over 100 years, with one picture included in a video from The Monitor showing several photos of the original high school, as well as several graduations from the early 20th century. It went from just that one school to several other schools mentioned in the "Schools" section below.

In 2009, the school district was rated "exemplary" by the Texas Education Agency.[1]
