Dilworth Seeks Annexation by Gonzales School District
Trustees of the Dilworth Common School District petitioned the Gonzales County School Board for an election to annex Dilworth into the Gonzales Independent School District. Belmont also filed a petition. The move follows a Gonzales board decision to exclude pupils from outside the district starting next September, potentially affecting rural districts and out-of-district high schools. Dilworth runs a K-7 school. Belmont has a schoolhouse but no operations.
