History:

Students have been graduating from Marfa High School since 1901. Geographically, Marfa ISD is the second largest district in the state of Texas (nearly 3,000 square miles– larger than the state of Delaware). For decades, Marfa ISD had an elementary school in the community of Redford along the Rio Grande. Today the students of Redford attend Presidio ISD; however, Redford is still in the Marfa ISD taxing authority, residents vote in the Marfa ISD elections and Marfa ISD reimburses Presidio ISD for the expenses of educating the Redford students.

Marfa ISD maintains a student population of 330 to 360 students per year. Between sixty to sixty-five staff make up the faculty of Marfa ISD.
