Roving Chef Experience at SIMS!
Yesterday, 11/7/24, SIMS had a special treat for their top students who earned the most PBS points in 4th grade! These students got the chance to participate in a hands-on cooking lesson with a roving chef, where they learned how to make guacamole and explored the health benefits of this delicious dish. 🥑👩🍳
Congrats to these hardworking students for earning this fun and educational experience! Keep up the great work! 🎉 #SIMS #MexiaISD #PBS #StudentSuccess #HealthyEating

November 5th: McBay & Sims PTA Meeting
Thank you to Mr. Appleton and his Executive Team for our 7th semi-annual staff appreciation meal. It makes a huge positive impact on employee morale to be cooked for and served a delicious meal by your district leadership. Pit-smoked brisket & sausage, calico baked beans, homemade potato salad, rolls and Mom's banana pudding were on the menu last Friday...YUM! A big shout-out to Mr. Bud Shamblin (MISD board member) for making the effort to help serve this special meal! It's always a great day to be a Blackcat!
Last Friday night Mexia ISD celebrated the ribbon cutting of the new stadium seating at Mexia Blackcat Stadium! The previous bleachers served fans for many faithful years but had become unsafe due to age and weather and were irreparable.
We wanted to honor the historic value of the original stadium seating by creating a memorial. So during the demolition of the old bleachers, MISD salvaged a historic piece of the original stadium steel. It was custom manufactured over 120 years ago by Carnegie Steel, specifically for the Mexia stadium. The Carnegie stamp is easily visible as we wanted to highlight this historic component since the company only existed from 1892-1901.
This entire project was designed and built by students at Mexia High School and was installed by the MISD Maintenance Dept.
It’s a great day to be a Blackcat!
