Sheldon Independent School District is a public school district in unincorporated northeast Harris County, Texas (USA). The majority of the district lies in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of Houston with a small portion within city limits.

Sheldon ISD covers 53.5 square miles and serves several neighborhoods in the Sheldon Lake area. Administration for the district is headquartered in the Dr. Donald Ney Administration Complex with Dr. King Davis acting as superintendent. Since the early 2000s, strong enrollment growth has driven new construction and expansions throughout the district. Nearly 7,800 students are enrolled in 2015. There are 4 main academies where one of the best and the most professional would be the Sheldon ECHS which not only helps students get a feeling of college but helps some graduate with 2 years of college already done!

The district and all of its schools were rated as having "Met Standard" in 2014 under the new Texas Education Agency accountability ratings.
