Mesquite ISD

Each school day, the district welcomes more than 40,000 students through the doors of its 46 campuses, including 32 elementary schools, eight middle schools, five high schools and the Mesquite Academy, an alternative education campus of choice that offers accelerated instruction for nontraditional students.

MISD encompasses an area of approximately 60 square miles along either side of I-635 in east Dallas County. It draws from the communities of Mesquite, Garland and Balch Springs, but also includes parts of Dallas and serves Sunnyvale high school students.

Mesquite ISD has a record of steady, marked improvement and a continual quest for excellence. MISD is home to two nationally recognized Blue Ribbon Schools selected and honored by the U.S. Department of Education.
