🌟 Celebrating High School Counselors During Counselors Week! 🌟
This week, we honor our incredible high school counselors, Wendi Dunn and Alisha Franklin who make a profound difference in the lives of our students every single day. 💙
From providing guidance on academic planning to offering emotional support during tough times, these ladies are the unsung heroes of our campus. They are the trusted mentors who help students navigate their academic journeys, explore career options, and address personal challenges with empathy and dedication.
As we celebrate National Counselors Week, let’s take a moment to recognize the invaluable work that these ladies do:
Academic Advising: Helping students map out their educational path and make informed
decisions about their future.
Emotional Support: Being a listening ear during difficult moments and guiding students
through their personal challenges.
Career & College Prep: Assisting students in exploring career options and preparing for
college applications and beyond.
Creating a Safe Environment: Ensuring all students feel supported, understood, and
respected.
Wendi Dunn and Alisha Franklin—THANK YOU! Your hard work and dedication doesn't go unnoticed. You shape the future one student at a time, and we’re so grateful for everything you do. 💪

Hey Senior Class of 2025! See flyer for graduation order update!
Blackcat family,
We have been experiencing unusually high levels of sickness in our schools, both with students and staff. Efforts have been made to combine classes, however today we had well over 20 unfilled positions. This negatively impacts student learning. In an effort to break the cycle of spreading the illness, Mexia ISD will close tomorrow, Friday, January 31, 2025.
This includes all extracurricular and athletic activities. We will resume all classes and activities on Monday, February 3, 2025.
MISD staff will conduct a comprehensive cleaning and disinfecting of all campuses and buses tomorrow.
