The Clear Creek Independent School District is home to 44 schools, 5,000 employees, more than 41,000 students. The district spans 103 square miles, 13 municipalities and 2 counties (Harris and Galveston).

School officials justify the bond to keep pace with rising enrollments, aging schools, safety improvements, student programs, and technology. Taxpayers claim that financial mismanagement and poor student performance do not merit more money. “I am being taxed out of my home,” said Rudy Balciunas a 20+ year resident of Clear Lake.

Per Smartasset.com, Texas homeowner pays the 4th highest effective property taxes nationwide.” Zillow reports “that in Harris county an average homeowner pays $5,466 in property taxes almost double the National Average - $ 2,823.”
