Good afternoon everyone!
We continue to monitor this line of storms west of the Dallas area and believe this could potentially interfere with regular dismissal and bus travel. In the best interest of the safety of our students, faculty, and staff we are going to allow student drivers and car riders to be picked up at 2:30 p.m. and bus riders to be dismissed 20 minutes afterwards.
Please share the word.
Thank you,
Cody Mize
Superintendent of Schools

Good afternoon everyone!
I have received a few messages concerning the weather forecast tomorrow (Friday, November 4th). I don’t anticipate us having an early dismissal due to the timing of the storms, but we will constantly monitor storm development, especially near dismissal time to keep all of our students, faculty, and staff safe.
Also, we are continuing to work through several scenarios for Varsity Football and Varsity Volleyball scheduled for tomorrow night. As soon as we have something definite, we will let everyone know. I anticipate having this information out well before noon, if not sooner.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact your child’s Campus Office tomorrow during the day or please feel free to give me a call directly at the Administration Office.
Have a great evening!
Cody Mize

Good afternoon everyone!
We wanted to provide an update concerning tomorrow's Senior Activities and our last regular season home football game versus the Rains Wildcats. The weather forecast is showing a 70-100% chance of rain from 12:00 noon through most of the evening.
We will make a decision at 12:00 noon concerning the Senior Ride on the fire trucks, outdoor Pep Rally, and Powder Puff Football Game. If we have rain at that time, we will move the Pep Rally to the High School Gym and start at 2:00 p.m..
We will make a decision at 5:00 p.m. concerning the recognition of our Seniors and their families prior to the football game. If we have to reschedule this event, we will honor these Seniors and their families at a home basketball game in the near future. As far as the football game is concerned, as long as we don't have lighting we will play football. So plan on bringing an umbrella and a rain jacket or tune in on the Yellowjacket Network to watch it live on the Mineola ISD Facebook Page or the Creative Edge YouTube Channel.
Weather is always a tricky situation, so THANK YOU in advance for being flexible with us throughout the day tomorrow. Stay tuned to the Mineola ISD Mobile Application for the latest updates.
