Just a few reminders as we head into the weekend...
1.) On Monday, December 13th at 6:00 p.m., the Mineola ISD Board of Trustees will meet for their monthly meeting. This meeting will take place at the Mineola ISD Administration Building in the Boardroom. The very first item of business will be a Demographic Report presented to the District and Community concerning potential growth in the Mineola Independent School District. This report is the third part of a series of studies the District has conducted over the last several months concerning facilities and financial analysis.
2.) Friday, December 17th will be an Early Release Day in the District for all students and staff. Car riders will be dismissed at 12:00 noon and bus riders will be dismissed at 12:30 p.m. on that day. This will mark the conclusion of the Fall Semester.
We hope that our students, staff, parents/guardians, and community members have a great weekend! As always, if we can be of any assistance to you, please don't hesitate to reach out to your child's campus or any of our departments.
Merry Christmas!
