The Celina Independent School District occupies 94 square miles in northwest Collin County and a small area in Denton County. The District is comprised of three communities: Celina, Alla and Weston. Alla and Weston, previously independent school districts, consolidated with Celina in the 1950s and 1960s. Student enrollment since the 1998-99 school year has increased 37%. Student attendance averages 96.9%. The dropout rate for the 2001-02 school year was 0%. Students are educated in four buildings: a grade PK-3 elementary school built in 2003; a grade 4-6 intermediate school built in 1987; a grade 7-8 junior high school built in 1976; and a grade 9-12 high school built in 1998, with additions made in 2002 & 2003.

The District participates in several cooperative educational programs, administered through the Region 10 Educational Service Center, to provide the best available programs for students and staff in the most cost effective manner. In addition to an extensive honors and advanced placement curriculum, the District offers a gifted and talented program for all grade levels and the option of graduating with a Distinguished Achievement diploma. The high school houses the Celina Community Library, a cooperative effort between the District and the Community of Celina.

The District continues to implement programs that improve learning and benefit students. The District has updated technology resulting in computer technology for instructional and administrative use. Individualized reading programs are present at all campuses. Learning centers and remedial programs also exist to assist students and improve performance.
