Paint Creek Independent School District is a public school district based in the community of Paint Creek in unincorporated Haskell County, Texas (USA). Its headquarters are along Farm to Market Road 600. Most of the district is in Haskell County, and a small portion of the district extends into Jones County. Paint Creek ISD has one school that serves students in grades pre-kindergarten through twelve.

History

The district formed in 1937 from the consolidation of the Post, Howard, Weaver, Rose, and McConnell school districts. The name was chosen from a nearby stream. Construction on the first school building began in 1937 and was completed in the summer of 1938. Between 1938 and 1941 five additional small school districts – Plainview, Ward, Rockdale, Ericksdahl, and Cobb – merged to form the current Paint Creek district.
