Dear Eagle Community,

One of the things that makes Decatur ISD truly special is how much this community cares about its schools. Whether it’s cheering on our students, volunteering in classrooms, or showing up to support teachers, your involvement is the heartbeat of our district. That shared pride is what keeps Decatur strong—and it’s exactly what we’ll need as we plan for the future together.

Our schools are filled with passionate teachers, hardworking students, and a community that shows up big. But behind the scenes, the financial picture is becoming harder to ignore. If enrollment doesn’t increase and we don’t get ahead of mounting maintenance costs, the way we operate simply isn’t sustainable.
