Brazos Valley Living·FAQ·School Districts in Burleson and Robertson Counties
← Back to Frequently Asked QuestionsShort answer: Three independent school districts are headquartered in Burleson County: Caldwell ISD, Snook ISD, and Somerville ISD. Five are headquartered in Robertson County: Franklin ISD, Hearne ISD, Bremond ISD, Calvert ISD, and Mumford ISD. Each serves roughly grades PK through 12, and district lines do not always match county lines.
Facts only, no rankings
When you ask me about schools, I give you names, grade spans, enrollment, and the state's published rating, each with its source and year. I do not rate or rank districts, and I will not tell you that one district is better or worse than another. Those are judgments only you can make for your own family, and the law I work under requires me to keep my comments to neutral facts. For current accountability ratings and the detail behind them, the official place to look is the Texas Education Agency's TXschools.gov. One more important point: school district boundaries do not always follow county lines, so the only way to know the district for a specific property is to check that address with the appraisal district or the Texas Education Agency.
Districts headquartered in Burleson County
The National Center for Education Statistics lists three independent school districts with their administrative offices in Burleson County: Caldwell ISD, Snook ISD, and Somerville ISD. Each serves roughly prekindergarten through grade 12.
Caldwell ISD serves grades PK through 12 across four campuses centered in Caldwell. NCES Common Core of Data reported enrollment of about 1,965 students for the 2023 to 2024 school year. The Texas Education Agency assigned the district an accountability rating of B in the 2024 to 2025 ratings released in August 2025.
Snook ISD serves grades PK through 12 across two campuses in Snook, in the eastern part of the county. NCES reported enrollment of about 609 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of B in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Somerville ISD serves grades PK through 12 across three campuses in Somerville, in the southern part of the county near Lake Somerville. NCES reported enrollment of about 536 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of D in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Districts headquartered in Robertson County
NCES lists five independent school districts with their administrative offices in Robertson County: Franklin ISD, Hearne ISD, Bremond ISD, Calvert ISD, and Mumford ISD. Each serves roughly prekindergarten through grade 12.
Franklin ISD, in Franklin, the county seat, serves grades PK through 12 across three campuses. NCES reported enrollment of about 1,387 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of A in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Hearne ISD serves grades PK through 12 across two campuses in Hearne. NCES reported enrollment of about 764 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of D in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Bremond ISD serves grades PK through 12 across three campuses in Bremond. NCES reported enrollment of about 504 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of B in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Calvert ISD serves grades PK through 12 as a single multi-level campus in Calvert. NCES reported enrollment of about 147 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of D in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Mumford ISD serves grades PK through 12 across two campuses in the Mumford area, which sits near the Robertson and Brazos county line. NCES reported enrollment of about 600 students for 2023 to 2024. TEA assigned the district a rating of A in the 2024 to 2025 ratings.
Why the district for an address is not the same as the county
The lists above are the districts whose offices sit inside each county, which is how NCES organizes them. School district boundaries are drawn separately from county lines, so a tract on the edge of Burleson or Robertson County can fall inside a district whose office is in a neighboring county, and a county can include slivers of districts I have not listed here. If the district matters to you, send me the address and I will help you confirm it with the appraisal district or TEA before you rely on it. I do not estimate or assume the district from a map.
What the A through F rating is, and what it is not
The single letter grade you see above comes from the Texas Education Agency's A through F accountability system. TEA released the 2024 to 2025 ratings on August 15, 2025, after litigation had delayed earlier years. The grade reflects state measures such as STAAR results, graduation rates, and college, career, and military readiness for that rating year. It is a snapshot of those specific metrics, not a measure of any individual school, teacher, or student, and it changes year to year. I am giving you the rating and its year only so you can look it up yourself. The current ratings and the campus-level detail behind them live on TXschools.gov.

This page is general information, not legal, tax, lending, or insurance advice, and it is not a rating or endorsement of any district. Enrollment and ratings change every year, and district boundaries do not always match county lines. Confirm the current rating and the district for a specific address with the Texas Education Agency and the local appraisal district before you rely on anything here. The figures on this page reflect NCES Common Core of Data for the 2023 to 2024 school year and TEA's 2024 to 2025 accountability ratings as I read them in 2026; I plan to review this page when the next NCES and TEA releases come out.
