[edit] History

In the 2000s, rising real estate costs in Galveston forced many families to move to other areas, including League City and Texas City. This meant an influx of children out of Galveston ISD and into other school districts like Dickinson ISD [1].

[edit] Standardized dress

All DISD students are required to wear "standardized dress", which is similar to school uniforms. [2]
