Van ISD

Being a Vandal is something in which we take a lot of pride. Whether it be the rich traditions, the talented students, or the mystique of this small East Texas town, we are very proud of our Vandal roots which began with the discovery of the Van Oil Field in 1929. Our kids are known for their competitiveness and how hard they work in the classroom as well as in all extra-curricular activities. The students of Van ISD have earned numerous state championships in academics, fine arts, and athletics.

At Van ISD, our core belief is, “EVERY child has the right to be prepared to attend college, and it is the responsibility of the adults in our schools to put systems in place to make that happen.” This is a responsibility we take very seriously. We believe a students’ pursuit of a college education begins the moment they walk through our doors in kindergarten and continues as they complete their high school diploma. But just graduating from high school is not enough to succeed in the real world. Our desire is that every student who graduates from Van High School will pursue a college degree or some form of post secondary education. Educating a child is a team effort. Please join us as we encourage your kids to dream about what they can become. After High School Comes College!
