The district in Ellis County includes that county's part of Ellis and sections of Red Oak, Waxahachie, and the Bristol census-designated place.[1] In Dallas County, it includes the remainder of Ferris and a portion of Lancaster.[2]
The Ferris ISD school district began in 1911 as a modest one-campus district. After the Ferris Brick industry was constructed, the town's population grew rapidly. In 1941, the current administration building was erected. Following were Hazel Ingram Elementary (1968), Ferris Jr. High (1978), Ferris Intermediate, now Lee Longino Elementary (1986), Lucy Mae Mcdonald Elementary (2002), and Ferris High School (2008). The district is led by Superintendent Hector Madrigal and Assistant Superintendent of Academic Services Lindsey Wood.
