12. Grapevine is the oldest settlement
in Tarrant County, originating
under the Lone Star flag in 1844,
a year before Texas became a part of the
United States.
In October 1844, General Sam Houston and
fellow Republic of Texas Commissioners
camped at Tah-Wah-Karro Creek, also known
as Grape Vine Springs, to meet with leaders
of ten Indian nations. This historic meeting
culminated in the signing of a treaty of “peace,
friendship and commerce,” which opened
the area for settlement by homesteaders and
pioneers.
The settlement was named Grapevine because
of its location on the Grape Vine Prairie near
Grape Vine Springs, both of which were
named for the tart, wild Mustang grapes that
blanketed the area.
Following the signing of the treaty, settlement
began in the area that would become the City
of Grapevine. Growth during the 19th century
was modest but steady. By 1890, the town had
about 800 residents, along with amenities more
common in larger cities such as a newspaper, a
public school, several cotton gins, a post office
and a railroad depot. Steady growth continued
early in the 20th century, and, on January 12,
1914, after the area had been known by several
other names, the post office changed the town
name to the one-word title Grapevine.
Today, the City of Grapevine remains deeply
committed to the preservation and faithful
stewardship of its historic resources.
The city even established a non-profit
organization devoted to historic preservation
advocacy called the Grapevine Heritage
Foundation. This membership organization
provides historic preservation advocacy,
education and outreach to thousands of school
children and visitors who explore the city each
year.
The spirit of Grapevine is alive and well thanks
to the volunteer efforts of our community
including the Grapevine Heritage Foundation
and other local organizations.
Two annual major downtown festivals -
Main Street Fest and GrapeFest - provide
funding for revitalization and new projects
that preserve and celebrate the rich history of
Grapevine for generations to come.

The Grapevine Chamber of Commerce is not a PAC (Political Action Committee),
but the organization uses its relationship with local, regional, state and national elected
officials to inform the business investors on issues that impact their operations and
bottom line daily.
Working with other area leaders and organizations, the goal for the staff and Board
of the Grapevine Chamber is to provide relevant updates and notifications on current
legislation or actions of our elected officials so that our businesses can let their voices
be heard as a part of the process, rather than mere observers.

COLLEYVILLE ISD
Grapevine-Colleyville ISD, a K-12 public school system in the heart of the
Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, is making bold changes in the way teachers
teach and the way students learn. In the fifth year of their 10-year strategic
plan, the district is transforming its culture to provide the foundation that today’s
21st Century learners will need to be successful now and in life beyond high school.
LEAD 2021
GCISD’s strategic plan is called
LEAD 2021, which stands for Leading
Excellence-Action Driven. The district’s
strategic plan is creating an innovative
environment where students are inspired,
encouraged and supported through its
four core objectives:
• Preparing students to be college and
career ready;
• Harnessing technology for learning;
• Fostering citizenship and mutual
respect; and
• Building community involvement.
Through LEAD 2021, GCISD has
developed a wide variety of education
opportunities to help meet the needs
of all students. All GCISD elementary
campuses are now 1:1, meaning that each
student is equipped with a technology
device, such as an iPad, to help enhance
instruction and learning. The district’s
elementary ASPIRE Academy, two-way
dual language and STEM programs have
now advanced to the middle school levels.
Students can now explore new career
studies at the Technology Education and
Career Center. Students across the entire
state can take part in a GCISD education
through iUniversity Prep, the district’s
virtual school. And soon GCISD will
have hundreds of students earning
an associate’s degree along with their
high school diploma through GCISD’s
newest high school, Collegiate Academy
at Tarrant County College Northeast.
These projects and programs have been
made possible through LEAD 2021 and
the continued support of the GCISD
community. Continued on Page 19

Commitment to be the BEST
The mission of GCISD is to be the BEST,
which is defined as Building Excellent
Schools Together. GCISD maintains a
long-standing commitment to educational
excellence for all children. Building on its
mission, the district continues increasing
the level of rigor in classrooms to address
expectations of the community and better
prepare students for success in college
and their future careers. GCISD is home
to high-achieving and high-performing
students and staff. Both traditional high
schools consistently earn spots on ‘best
high school lists,’ such as the Washington
Post’s annual ranking feature. A new
record was achieved this year by having
20 students named National Merit Semi-
Finalists for the 2015-2016 school year.
Additionally, GCISD’s fine arts students
and programs continually earn notable
recognition through the All-State program
and national music, theater and dance
competitions. For three consecutive years,
GCISD has been included in the list of
Best Communities for Music Education.
Furthermore, GCISD student athletes and
teams regularly earn state champion titles in
wrestling, cross country, tennis and more.
In GCISD, they employ multiple measures
to assess student progress, such as scores
on the ACT and SAT college readiness
exams. On the most recent results, GCISD
student composite scores continue to
remain higher on the ACT and SAT than
the scores at both the state and national
averages on those assessments. Each
year, GCISD graduates attend respected
universities across the country, such as
the University of Texas, Baylor and Texas
A&M here in state, to Princeton, Harvard,
Emory, Stanford, Georgetown and many
others. Through Career and Technology
Education courses, students acquire
industry certifications that lead into careers
or further education including, Emergency
Medical Technician, Certified Nursing
Assistant, Texas Floral Certification,
Microsoft Office Specialist and Master,
Adobe Creative Suite Certification, and
ServSafe Food Safety Management.
Recognized for Excellence
Educators in GCISD are among the best
and have been finalists for Presidential
honors, invited to attend Supreme Court
Summer Institutes, and recognized by their
professional organizations for excellence.
GCISD also is recognized for excellence
in its purchasing, financial and operational
practices as it strives to be good stewards
of taxpayer dollars. The district’s Financial
Services department received recognition
for its high level of transparency, earning
a 2015 Platinum Leadership Circle Award
from the Texas Comptroller’s Office. This
also is GCISD’s fourth consecutive year
to earn the Leadership Circle Award at the
highest level. GCISD Financial Services
also earned a Pass rating in the Financial
Integrity Rating System of Texas (FIRST).
The district has received the highest rating
possible for each of the 13 years the FIRST
program has existed.
The success of GCISD students – past,
present and future – begins at home with
the continued support of parents and the
community. The Grapevine-Colleyville
Education Foundation continues to
fund millions of dollars in grants and
scholarships for our students and
educators. CONNECT has a long history
of working directly with the district to help
assist GCISD families in need, working
to give all students the resources needed
for a foundation of success in education.
The district appreciates its strong, vibrant
partnerships with civic organizations and
businesses in the Grapevine community.
We are Building Excellent Schools
Together!

38. 36 Grapevine Chamber of Commerce
Business in Grapevine expanded in
2014 due to the completion of
the DFW Connector construction
project in 2013 and an overall upswing in
the national economy. New construction for
the first nine months of 2014 totaled $120
million, and retail sales have rebounded
to pre-recession levels. Hotel occupancies
rose into the lower 70% levels, continuing
Grapevine’s status as the top hotel market
in the Metroplex. Major target industries
include hospitality, entertainment, retail
and tourism. This strategy has resulted in
a visitor count of 19 to 20 million per year
with 85% to 90% of retail sales originating
from non-residents.
Transportation
Grapevine has outstanding access within
the region and state. A majority of Dallas/
Fort Worth International Airport is located
within the Grapevine city limits, providing
global access to residents and visitors. Total
passengers exceed 60 million per year and is
expected to increase to 70 million by 2020.
Seven major highways converge within
Grapevine’s corporate limits, providing
easy access to both state and national
destinations. Commuter rail, with the Fort
Worth Transportation Authority’s (The T)
TEXRail, is scheduled to be in operation
by 2018, with Grapevine planned to have
a station at the intersection of Main St.
and Dallas Rd. The commuter line will run
from the medical district in Fort Worth
to the Dallas/Fort Worth International
Airport. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit
(DART) recently opened light rail from
the airport eastward into the Dallas area,
and this service will connect with the
planned commuter rail line in Grapevine.
A study done by economists Dr. Bernard
Weinstein and Dr. Terry Clower indicated
that a commuter rail station in Grapevine
would generate $50-$100 million in new or
renovated development, as well as enhance
Grapevine as a tourist and business
destination. To improve intra-city mobility,
Grapevine offers a local shuttle system,
consisting of a four bus fleet with routes
between all major commercial and tourism
entities within the community.
Grapevine Mills
Grapevine Mills Mall opened in 1997
and continues to play a major role in
Grapevine’s economy. This 1.6 million sq.
ft. mall contains 200 stores and 30 kiosks.
It attracts 13 to 15 million shoppers and
employs 1,500 people. Simon Corporation
purchased the mall and has continued to
make the retail and entertainment mix fresh
and exciting. Simon began a $40 million
renovation in 2014 to give the interior a
classic and timeless look. This renovation
is scheduled to finish in February 2016.
In addition, a new more upscale/fashion
tenant mix has been initiated, providing
new tenants such as Coach, H&M, Michael
Kors and Kenneth Cole. Saks Off 5th
and Nike completed major renovations,
adding further value to the mall. Merlin
Entertainment, the second largest visitor
attraction company in the world with 59
attractions in Europe, Asia and North
America, opened two attractions within the
mall in 2011, LEGOLAND® Discovery
Center DFW and SEA LIFE Aquarium.
Two expansions to LEGOLAND include
a forest themed indoor driving track and
an outdoor pirate themed splash-park.
LEGOLAND and SEA LIFE Aquarium
deliver a combined attendance of 1.1
million visitors per year.
