The Winter Gala Dance scheduled for December 6th has been canceled due to lack of interest.
We are needing a couple of volunteers for the concession stand for the high school girls basketball games. Please come help YOUR Lady Wampus Cats as they take on Groesbeck!
Games start at 5!






We’ll be collecting canned goods for entry to the basketball games on Monday and Tuesday to help families in need this Thanksgiving.
Thank you in advance for supporting our community and helping make someone’s holidays a little brighter!

Itasca ISD Staff & Faculty were given a surprise gift right in time for the holiday season! A big thank you to Superintendent Tonya Harris and the Itasca ISD Board of Trustees for their gratitude, appreciation, and support of the Itasca ISD staff & faculty!

There will be no Winter Gala Dance on December 6th.
There are no picture retakes today! Sorry for any confusion, Ivey Photography sent emails out to parents reminding them about a picture retake day today, but they have confirmed there was a bug in their system. We were not scheduled to have a picture retake today! I apologize for any inconvenience or confusion it may have caused.- Mrs. Mears
We'll see you all on December 1st. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

This day is set aside to recognize and appreciate the contributions of substitute teachers.
THANK YOU!!!

Please know that your actions are important.
Every child is given the promise of public education, which you fulfill with diligence, talent, and compassion.
We appreciate how you respect what has worked for many generations while making adjustments to meet the needs of today's pupils.
There are few resources, high expectations, and ever-changing student needs. Nevertheless, you arrive—steady, ready, and kid-focused.
Thank you to every role that makes learning possible
