DeutschMiami Independent School District
Miami Independent School District is a public school district based in Miami, Texas (USA).
It is the sole school district in Roberts County,[1] and a small portion of the district extends into Gray County.
Miami ISD has one school that serves students in grades pre-kindergarten through twelve.
In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.[2]
History[edit]
A former high school building was rendered useless after a 1969 tornado, so a new facility was built after that.[1]
In 2007 Donna Hale, of the Miami High School class of 1994, became the superintendent, but left the school prior to the 2023-2024 academic year.[1]
The voters approved a bond for $32 million for a new 124,000-square-foot (11,500 m2) school building in 2014; the decision of the rural Miami community to maintain its own school district and build a new school contrasts with other area communities which instead chose to consolidate with other area school districts.[1]
By 2017 the Miami ISD high school section began an early college program where students may take tertiary courses and receive associates degrees while graduating from high school.[1]
