Up



The community of Benavides, Texas is located in the brush country of South Texas in a region that was once called the Wild Horse Desert. In historic Duval County, Benavides lies between the cities of Corpus Christi on the coast of the sparkling Gulf of Mexico and Laredo on the banks of the old Rio Grande. As a result, BISD sits at the center of a culturally rich area of Texas -- providing premiere educational services to nearly 500 students on two campuses.
