There are many reasons why Mineola ISD is a great place to teach. One of those reasons is the plan that Mineola ISD has adopted to offer the Teacher Incentive Allotment to teachers throughout the District. The Teacher Incentive Allotment rewards high-performing teachers who demonstrate excellence during their formal observation with their Campus Principal and improve students' academic performance with financial bonuses. Currently, 54 teachers at Mineola ISD receive designations as part of this program. Designations range in award from $4,296 to $16,516 and are awarded each year for five years on top of their current salary. To date, Mineola ISD has paid out over $475,000 in bonuses to outstanding teachers! Mineola ISD is truly Learning Today, Leading Tomorrow as a top choice for students and teachers alike in East Texas.

Update 1:32 p.m. Mineola High School was placed on "Lockdown" at approximately 12:20 p.m. due to what sounded like gunshots being fired in the neighborhood of the Mineola ISD Transportation and Maintenance Building. These sounds were heard by a Mineola ISD Maintenance Employee and a nearby Mineola Police Department Officer. All other Campuses in the District were placed on "Secure", while the Mineola Police Department investigated the incident. The investigation concluded that a vehicle backfiring several times throughout the neighborhood triggered the incident. We appreciate the prompt response of the Mineola Police Department, Mineola ISD Police Department, Faculty, Staff, and Students who responded so quickly to this incident. This afternoon, a debrief will occur with our students, Faculty, and Staff at the High School, and an After Action Review will be conducted by all of those responding to this incident tomorrow morning to better understand what we can learn from this and respond even better in case of a real-world incident. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at mizec@mineolaisd.net. Our best, Cody Mize Superintendent of Schools
