Good evening Blackcats,
Tonight the MISD Board of Trustees approved two recommendations for hire for the upcoming school year.
First, I am pleased to share with you that LaKechia Johnson will be moving from the Principal of Sims Intermediate to become the new Executive Director of Human Resources.
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.
It's a great day to be a Blackcat!
