Next up for CTE month...8th graders visited the Applied Agricultural Engineering and Marketing & Sales high school programs. #CTEMonth #Welding #Branding #FutureWorkforce
Good morning Blackcat family, we just wanted to let everyone know that one of our buses on county rd 427 pulled over to let a car pass and ended up getting stuck in a small ditch. There was no bus accident. There were no injuries and everyone involved was safe. Thanks to the excellent work of the MISD Transportation department, all students were quickly loaded onto another bus and transported to school so the stuck bus could be pulled back onto the pavement

CTE month kicked off with Day 1 of the Career Launch Academy which highlighted industrial welding. Students toured SWARCO and a few even got the opportunity to weld! Afterwards students went to Navarro College to learn about the welding program, meet the welding professor, and everyone was able to "weld" via virtual reality! #CTE #NavarroCollege #SWARCO
