From Chireno ISD: As Chireno ISD continues to prepare for the May 2, 2026 bond election for a new elementary school, we want to begin sharing information that affects our tax payers. Currently, CISD does not have an I&S (Interest and Sinking) tax rate like many schools currently have. Should this bond proposal pass, it will establish an I&S tax rate of $0.29. However, the average home value in the Chireno school district is appraised at just under $145,000, so many homeowners will not see an increase in school taxes.
