Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District (C-FB ISD) is a school district based in Carrollton, Texas, United States.
The district covers most of the cities of Carrollton and Farmers Branch and parts of Addison, Coppell, Dallas, and Irving (including Valley Ranch and the Northern part of Las Colinas). C-FB ISD has twenty-five elementary schools, six middle schools, four high schools, and four education centers.
On April 16, 2012, the school district began the process of Limited Open Enrollment, allowing students living outside the boundaries of the school district to apply to attend the district.
In 2010 and 2011, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.
The district encompasses 53.42 square miles (138.4 km2) and is located primarily in northwest Dallas County with a smaller portion in southeast Denton County. The school district's boundaries are not the same as municipal boundaries; therefore, Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District provides instructional services to children who live in portions of Carrollton, Farmers Branch, Addison, Coppell, Dallas, and Irving.
Dr. Bobby Burns has served as the Superintendent since July 1, 2009. He was previously named acting Superintendent in October 2008 after the resignation of his predecessor, Dr. Annette T. Griffin.
Under the leadership of Mayor Tim O'Hare, the city of Farmers Branch initiated a process to separate the portions of the C-FB ISD and Dallas ISD within Farmers Branch city limits to form a new Farmers Branch city-run Municipal School District in 2009. In May 2011, voters rejected the notion, with two thirds of voters voting against the referendum. At the time the city did not have the 8,000 children required under Texas law as a requirement for forming a new district, so CBS Dallas stated "Even if the proposal had passed there would have been little, if anything, the city could have done to move forward."
