Nederland Independent School District is a public school district based in Nederland, Texas (USA).

Originally organized in 1920, the Nederland Independent School District has served the community for 100 years. The first school was built on grounds donated by Mr. Bluitt Langham, which is located at the current playground of Langham Elementary. A new school was built in the 1930s at the location of the current Alternative campus to accommodate the influx of students. This building was to become the high school until the 1970s.[3] In addition to Nederland, the district also serves most of Beauxart Gardens and Central Gardens and portions of Port Neches and Port Arthur.[4]

In 2019, the school district was rated "A" by the Texas Education Agency.[5]
