New Central Catholic plates for Texas drivers

Beginning September 1, 2025, Texas offers Central Catholic High School specialty license plates. Each plate must show “With Loyal Hearts” at the bottom and the school’s logo on the left. The design must be developed with a representative of the school in San Antonio. Drivers pay an issuance fee, but the law does not set the amount. After administrative costs, the remaining fee money goes to Texas’s general revenue fund, not a dedicated school fund.
