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 Use this link or QR code to access the survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfY3WU2So4LA8083Ay_KgedWt5WigxAHHJjL-Wb-K-XhCx5RQ/viewform
