BBE Parents,

Its been a great two weeks since the start of the Spring Semester and we are all ready for the three day weekend ahead. I hope you have a restful weekend with family and are excited to start another week of school on Tuesday.

Thank you for trusting us with your students. Bears LEAD the Way! All the Way! Go Bears!

Because voters rejected the November 2025 bond proposal, Magnolia ISD is adjusting long-term planning to align with the resources currently available.

While the funding for new facilities was not approved, our district's growth remains a daily reality. MISD has grown by 649 new students this school year alone. This growth equates to filling an additional 27-29 classrooms with new students.

What Happens Now
We invite you to join us for an update on the future of Magnolia ISD following the recent bond election. District leadership will discuss where we go from here, answer questions, and share next steps.
17 January 20 • 6 PM
• Magnolia Event Center
We hope to see you there!
