Hempstead Independent School District is a public school district based in Hempstead, Texas (USA). The school district contains 3 schools and an early childhood learning center.
The district serves Hempstead and unincorporated areas in Waller County, including Monaville. Despite a small school population the district takes up a large amount of rural area.
In the 2015-2016 school year, the school district had a very close call with being closed, and possibly Integrated with neighboring Waller ISD or Navasota ISD, but the district has since gotten back on its feet again.[citation needed]
Cleveland ISD extends into portions of Montgomery and San Jacinto counties, and Tomball ISD extends into portions of Montgomery County. Other districts in those counties are served by Region 6 ESC.
