About the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District (SCUC-ISD)

The Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District (SCUC-ISD) is located on the northeast side of the San Antonio Metro Area within a 73 square mile area that includes Bexar and Guadalupe Counties. The district is currently home to seven elementary schools, three intermediate schools, two junior high schools, and three high schools. During the last 15 years, the enrollment in the district has more than doubled. 

The district now services over 13,500 students living in Cibolo, Schertz, Universal City, Converse St. Hedwig and occasionally Randolph Air Force Base areas. Though the district's name has evolved into perhaps the longest school district names in Texas, its roots date back to the early 1900s when the district was named Schertz School District. 

During the mid-1930s, the Schertz and Cibolo districts became one. On April 24, 1961, the district officially became an "Independent School District." Universal City was added to the name in 1967. During the 2011-2012 school year the Texas Education Agency (TEA) acknowledged SCUC-ISD as a "recognized" school district. For more information about the district, please visit the SCUC-ISD Website.
