About Hays Consolidated Independent School District
Hays Consolidated Independent School District covers approximately 221 square miles across northern Hays County, serving the cities of Kyle and Buda along with portions of San Marcos and Uhland and unincorporated areas along the Interstate 35 corridor between Austin and San Marcos. The district was formed in 1967 through the consolidation of three predecessor districts — Buda, Kyle, and Wimberley ISDs — and is headquartered at 21003 Interstate 35 in Kyle (78640).
The district enrolled 23,313 students in the 2023-2024 school year across 26 traditional neighborhood-attendance campuses (17 elementary, 6 middle, and 3 high schools) plus two alternative programs (Live Oak Academy and the Impact Center). HCISD employs approximately 1,524 teachers (full-time-equivalent basis) plus support staff. The district's three traditional comprehensive high schools are Jack C. Hays HS in Buda (UIL Class 6A), Lehman HS in Kyle (UIL Class 5A), and Moe & Gene Johnson HS in Buda (UIL Class 6A).
Hays CISD earned a "B" overall accountability rating from the Texas Education Agency for the 2024-2025 school year, scoring 80 of 100 — continuing a B-rating streak from prior years. Jack C. Hays HS is the district's oldest comprehensive campus (opened 1968); Lehman HS opened 2004; Moe & Gene Johnson HS — the newest — opened 2019. The Johnson HS campus was named after William "Moe" Johnson and Eugenia "Gene" Johnson, two of the founding figures behind the formation of Hays CISD.
