Spring Branch is
one of the few school districts in Harris County
that gives its taxpayers relief by offering every
tax exemption allowed by law, including a 20 percent
homestead exemption. These tax breaks can mean
savings of hundreds of dollars for local taxpayers.
As a result, Spring Branch taxpayers pay lower
school taxes than homeowners in many surrounding
districts.
