Congratulations to McBay-Sims PTA for being named the Organization of the Year by Mexia Area Chamber of Commerce!!!
In recognition of our future Veterans, we would like to HONOR those called to duty by sending care packages to our deployed MISD and local graduates. Serving as a small token of our appreciation and gratitude, the care packages are reflective of our mission to say THANK YOU to former students, and honor their service of selfless sacrifice.
We would like to invite you to participate in Operation Care Package. We are collecting donated care package items at the DC Campus. You may drop off items Monday – Friday during school hours. Additionally, I have enclosed a list of troop favorites. Lastly, we APPRECIATE you for your willingness to give and support our troops.
Sincerely,
The DC Staff

Congratulations to Mrs. Schaefer and the Mexia High School DECA Chapter for being awarded DECA District V Chapter of the month in September!
This recognition couldn’t be achieved without the support of our school, community, and business stakeholders. Our main focus for the month of September was our “School Supply Drive” for Teachers led by Estefani Luna and Kayleigh Young. We would like to thank everyone who contributed to this great project. Many thanks to our local Walmart for allowing us to set up at their place of business and collect school supplies. Many teachers on the Mexia High School Campus benefited from this DECA Project.
Reminder: The last day to turn in Big Kahuna Fundraiser Packets is tomorrow, Wednesday, October 18, 2023.

Good morning Blackcats,
This is an FYI post. In the last few minutes some communication lines were cut during routine construction work near one of the schools. There is absolutely no safety concern but we wanted to alert you in the event you are unable to reach the school as some campus and district phone and internet lines are not working at this time.
Also as a reminder, Mexia ISD will be closed next week, October 9-13 for the fall break. Classes will resume on Monday, October 16th.
Homecoming week dress up days are in full swing!
