🌟 Reminder: 1st Progress Report Night is TONIGHT! Looking forward to seeing all of our Blue Jay families!

🗓️ Heads up, Mission CISD! There will be no school for students or staff on Monday, September 7, 2026, in observance of Labor Day.

Enjoy the long weekend! We’ll see everyone back in class on Tuesday, September 8!

📅 September is Attendance Awareness Month!

Each day in the classroom is another opportunity for our students to learn, grow, connect, and succeed.

Throughout September, let’s work together to encourage strong attendance and help every student make the most of every school day.

Show up. Be present. Don’t miss out! 🏫

🍕 Your Mission CISD campus could win a pizza party for the entire school! The campus with the MOST registrations for the Wonderful Citrus 5th Annual Run for Autism will win a campus-wide pizza party. 🎉

Register by August 31 to guarantee your event shirt. Every dollar raised directly benefits our Special Education students and the programs that support them.
