Good evening Blackcats,
Tonight the MISD Board of Trustees approved two recommendations for hire for the upcoming school year.

Also, the new CTE Director will be Mrs. Christine Walker who is joining us from Spring Branch ISD where she has been helping them build and expand their CTE programs from the ground up for nearly 20 years.
