Caddo Mills Independent School District

Join us Monday, August 17th, at Caddo Mills High School for our Annual Sr. Citizen Dinner, Hometown Gathering, and Meet the Foxes.

The dinner is for those 60 and older only. You will get dinner, a gift, and your athletic pass for the year. There will be vendors set up in the gym area from 5 PM until 8 PM. Meet the Foxes starts at 7 PM in the gym.

Thanks to these local businesses who knew our staff would need a "pick me up" on the first day of school!

It's a busy week, and Simply Prept understood. Thanks to them for taking care of our school employees this week with $5 meals.

We are preparing for Friday Night Lights! This year, we will continue our Fox Squad for students in Pre-K through 4th grade. The Fox Squad has the exciting opportunity to run onto the football field during pre-game, high-five our players, and use their official Fox Squad T-shirt as a ticket for home football games.

Order forms will be sent home this week. Please return the forms and payment to your home campus by August 20.

We absolutely have the BEST local businesses!!! They donated over 100 door prizes to teachers last week. We love all of you!

I know we ask you to vote a lot, but how fortunate are we to be nominated for awards! Our CMHS Tennis Program has been nominated for this prestigious award. Please vote daily.

Our Special Programs Department was showered with gifts from some awesome people!

Last week, we proudly celebrated our District Elementary and Secondary Teachers of the Year at the annual Region 10 Teacher of the Year Luncheon. Their dedication, passion, and commitment to making a difference in the lives of students inspire us every day. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition, and thank you for the incredible impact you have on our schools and community!
