Dear MES Families,
Good morning! We are committed to continually improving our school and providing the best possible experience for our students and families. To help guide our efforts, we are asking parents to complete a brief survey about communication, safety, academics, and overall school climate.
The survey is short and your feedback is very important to us. Your responses will help us celebrate what is working well and identify areas where we can grow.
Thank you for your time and for your continued support of our school.

McDade ISD has just significantly increased its medical care capabilities. Public Safety Chief Nick Teague has just achieved becoming a Licensed Paramedic and Sergeant Sara Allen has just achieved becoming an Advanced EMT. These are the two highest levels in prehospital emergency care which can be obtained. This adds Advanced Life Support skills to better serve our students and staff during medical emergencies or injuries. Be sure to say hello when you see them with their medical bags at our athletic events!

Yesterday we celebrated 100 Days of School at our elementary campus!
From counting to 100, creative projects, and lots of smiles, our students showed how much they’ve learned and grown. We’re 100 days smarter and still counting!
