Chisum Independent School District, or CISD, is a public school district based in the southern portion of Paris, Texas. The district was created on July 1, 1985, by the consolidation of the Delmar and West Lamar School Districts, as the Delmar-West Lamar Consolidated Independent School District, and adopted its present name on August 21, 1986.[2][3]

The district serves southern portions of Paris, the cities of Roxton and Toco, as well as the communities of Brookston and Petty in Lamar County. A small portion of the district extends into central Delta County, including the community of Lake Creek.[4]

In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.[5] It was rated as "Meets Requirements" in 2022.[6]
