Reminder for PreK, Kinder & 1st Grade Parents: Please drop off your child at the cafeteria tomorrow morning. Students will board the bus from there. Departure is at 8:00 AM. Thank you for your cooperation!

Just a reminder: School will be back in session tomorrow. Please be on time and ready to learn!

Due to aerial flooding and impassible roads MISD will shift to remote learning on Wednesday May 7. Students are expected to log in and follow their regular class schedule. Staff will be available throughout the day to assist with any questions or support students may need.

Thanks to your commitment to our schools, passing the General Obligation (GO) Bond in April ensures we can begin the work of building new, modern learning environments for our students. Read Letter for overview of the timeline!
