Texas Tech University Independent School District (TTUISD) was established by legislative and state board action in 1993 as a "Special Purpose District" designed to educate students with special circumstances and whose educational needs were not adequately met by traditional schools. In 1998, the Commissioner of Education granted expansion of the program to include kindergarten through 8th grade. TTUISD now serves students in kindergarten through 12th grade.

Enrollment



In 1994, the first graduating class from TTUISD consisted of only two. Now, TTUISD has a total enrollment of around 3,500 students between high school, middle school and elementary school students. When including the Supplemental program and Credit by Exams, TTUISD serves over 25,500 students in total. 310 students graduated in the 2013-2014 year.

Students can enroll in courses through TTUISD’s full-time, diploma-seeking program, where students take all the state-required courses and assessments to graduate. Upon graduation, students will receive a Texas high school diploma.

Another option is the supplemental program. Students can catch up or get ahead by taking individual courses or Credit by Exams while still enrolled in their current school district.
