Plotting the Channelview Tax Rate
Every dollar collected through local property taxes goes into one of two buckets—each with a very specific job:
Maintenance & Operations (M&O) Rate – $0.6788 per $100 of assessed property value. These dollars support everyday expenses like salaries, supplies, and services that keep the district running.
Interest & Sinking (I&S) Rate – $0.2829 per $100 of assessed property value. These dollars are dedicated to repaying debt from voter-approved bonds used for construction and major facility improvements.
That adds up to a total tax rate of $0.9617 per $100 of assessed value.

Navegando el Financiamiento Local: Cómo Funcionan los Impuestos Escolares
El financiamiento local de Channelview ISD proviene de los impuestos sobre la propiedad. Aunque el distrito establece la tasa impositiva, el valor de su propiedad es determinado por el Distrito de Tasación del Condado de Harris (Harris Central Appraisal District).
Para calcular el impuesto anual, se multiplica la tasa impositiva total por el valor de la propiedad (menos la Exención Homestead de $140,000) y el resultado se divide entre 100.
La tasa de impuestos escolares se divide en dos componentes principales:
🔹 Mantenimiento y Operaciones (M&O): Financia las operaciones diarias del distrito, incluyendo salarios, materiales para el aula y servicios públicos.
🔹 Intereses y Fondo de Amortización (I&S): Financia el pago de deuda e intereses asociados con inversiones a largo plazo, como renovaciones de instalaciones, nuevas construcciones y mejoras de seguridad.

Navigating Local Funding: How School Taxes Work
Local funding for Channelview comes from property taxes. The district sets a tax rate, but the Harris Central Appraisal District sets your property value.
The total tax rate is multiplied by the property value (minus the $140,000 Homestead Exemption) and divided by 100 to determine the amount owed annually.
Our school tax rate is divided into two main parts:
Maintenance & Operation (M&O) funds day-to-day operations, including salaries, classroom supplies and utilities.
Interest & Sinking (I&S) funds the payback of debt and interest for longer-term investments like facility renovation, new construction and safety improvements.

Cómo funciona la financiación local: el funcionamiento de los impuestos escolares
La financiación local de Channelview procede de los impuestos sobre la propiedad. El distrito establece el tipo impositivo, pero es el Distrito Central de Tasación de Harris el que fija el valor de su propiedad.
El tipo impositivo total se multiplica por el valor de la propiedad (menos la exención por vivienda habitual de 140 000 dólares) y se divide entre 100 para determinar el importe que se debe pagar anualmente.
Nuestro tipo impositivo escolar se divide en dos partes principales:
El fondo de mantenimiento y funcionamiento (M&O) financia las operaciones diarias, incluidos los salarios, los materiales para las aulas y los servicios públicos.
El fondo de intereses y amortización (I&S) financia el reembolso de la deuda y los intereses de inversiones a largo plazo, como la renovación de instalaciones, nuevas construcciones y mejoras de seguridad.
Channelview ISD is looking for passionate educators and staff to join our team.
