Higgins Independent School District was a public school district based in Higgins, Texas (USA).

In addition to Higgins, the district also served the community of Lipscomb.[2]

Higgins ISD had one school, Higgins School, that served students in grades pre-kindergarten through twelve.[1][3]

History

A resident who talked to KFDA stated that beginning in 1982, rumors circulated about an imminent closure of the district. In 2020 the superintendent recommended that the district consolidate as the Higgins ISD finances and student enrollment had declined.[4]

The district consolidated with Canadian ISD on July 1, 2020.[5]
