Impact on Van Alstyne ISD taxpayers: NO tax rate increase.

  • Thanks to wise planning by our school district, with passage of the Growth Management Bond Package, our property tax rate will not increase. Instead, the rate will be 4% lower than last year and and X% lower than in 2018.

  • Even with voter approval on November 4, our tax rate will remain lower because of the recent state tax cuts and the fiscal responsibility from the Van Alstyne ISD School Board and administrators.  

  • Senior citizens will not face any increase in their tax rates now or later because of the senior citizen homestead exemption. 

  • Van Alstyne ISD has a long track record of responsible management of our tax dollars, as the district has earned the highest ranking from the state’s Financial Integrity Rating System and achieved an ‘A’ district accountability rating from the Texas Education Agency.
