Look for our cheerleaders and cheer boosters this Friday and next Thursday mornings. They will be doing face paint dots for the kids. They will also have ribbons, tattoos and eye blacks for sale! They are raising money for their upcoming UIL State Spirit Competition. This will be the first time this program has ever participated in this competition.
They've got new stuff that they think everyone will love (PINK OUT tattoos and eye blacks, player name/number eye blacks, sequin tattoos and much more)! Please don't forget to stop by and check them out!

Battle of the River ~ COMMUNITY PEP RALLY ~ Friday, October 11th at 2PM


Late last night Mexia ISD Administration was made aware of a social media post about a song that made reference to “shooting up the high school in Mexia”. district administrators immediately contacted Mexia Police who investigated and determined this was not a credible threat. As a precaution, additional law enforcement officers will check on all MISD campuses this morning and throughout the day. Safety of students and staff will always be the district’s highest priority.


Homegrown Educational Program Interest Meeting: A rep from Grand Canyon University, Paul Yevcak, and John, Diane and Santana from Texas Institute for Teacher Education Alternative Certification Program came to the Admin Building yesterday to encourage participation in this program. MISD Staff, reach out to Mrs. LaKechia Johnson (Executive Director of Human Resources) if you missed the meeting, and would like more information.
