This year, GISD has four National Merit Finalists. Merit finalists are an elite group of scholars, and we are very proud to celebrate their outstanding academic achievements.

Jordan Myers, a senior at Rowlett High School in GISD, has been awarded the Texas Caucus of Black School Board Members Scholarship. Myers will be graduating in a couple of weeks and plans to attend the University of Texas at Austin and major in psychology on the pre-med route.

Dallas College held graduation for students in GISD who earned an associate's degree during their coursework. The Class of 2022 in GISD graduated hundreds of students in this program.

According to a law firm Edgar Snyder & Associates study, more than 90% of teens believe their classmates will likely drink and drive on prom night. This statistic is why Sachse High School took part in the "Shattered Dreams" educational experience last month at their campus.
