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

Gifted & Talented Program Referrals (Due: October 13th)


This Friday, September 22, 2023 is the Battle of the River Community Pep Rally. The pep rally will begin at 1:00 pm at Blackcat Field. All parents and visitors will need to enter the stadium on the home side.


At Mexia ISD we are continually working to improve the quality of education for our students, to help do this we are engaging in a pilot program with ESC 12 and TEA known as Texas Strategic Leadership. Through this work we will be examining our district level systems, how they impact each campus, and ultimately determine what experiences our students are receiving. Better yet, what experiences we want them to receive as a result of what systems need to be strengthened, created, or removed as determined by this data and a process of strategic planning. As a parent, your input is vital to this process, and therefore we would like to invite you to complete this survey. All survey information is anonymous and will close on October 16, 2023
