💙 Bullying Prevention Week is Coming! 💙

October 5–8 is Bullying Prevention Week, and we’re joining together for four fun dress-up days as we spread kindness and stand against bullying!

🎉 Check out the flyer for each day’s theme and join in the fun! Students may also choose to wear their regular school uniform instead of participating.

Let’s band together and make kindness the Blue Jay way! 💙🐦

❄️ Perfect Attendance Just Got COOLER! ❄️

Blue Jays, here’s a COOL reason to be at school every day! 💙🐦

Students in 3rd–5th grade who have perfect attendance during the 2nd Reporting Period (September 22–October 30) will earn a special field trip to Mission High School on November 18 to see a LIVE theater production of Frozen Jr.! ❄️👑🎶

On behalf of the Mission CISD Board of Trustees and Superintendent Dr. Cris King, we pause to remember the 21 students whose lives were tragically lost in the Alton bus tragedy on September 21, 1989.
