Congratulations to Jose Padron on being inducted into the MISD Apple Corps for December 2024, supported by the MESQUITE ISD EDUCATION FOUNDATION INC and Clay Cooley of Mesquite! Alyssa Navarrete is a fourth-grade teacher at Kimball Elementary School. She has taught for seven years, all with Mesquite ISD. Kimball Principal Bridget Mitchell said, “Ms. Navarrete is a truly exceptional educator whose dedication extends far beyond teaching. She goes above and beyond to create meaningful relationships with each student, empowering them to realize and embrace their full potential.” The Mesquite High School graduate says MISD played a huge role in wanting to become a teacher. “In third grade, I moved to Mesquite, hating school,” she said. “When I moved to this district, I was met with teachers who motivated me and challenged me. I had found an admiration for teaching through those teachers who shaped me, and I remember thinking I wanted to grow up to be just like them.” #MISDExcellence
