II Dr. Ruben Alejandro, Superintendent of Schools Parents and Students, It is truly a pleasure and an honor to serve as your superintendent of schools. I look forward to working with you; parents, assigned teachers, and administrators, as well as our state and national government entities in an effort to provide you with opportunities that will help you follow a successful path to college and career readiness. Weslaco Independent School District is focused on providing excellent educational opportunities to all of our students. Our mission is to prepare all students with 21st century skills that will help them in their future. As your superintendent, I ask you to put forth your best efforts on a daily basis. Teachers will continue to work hard to provide you with an education that is tailored to meet your individual needs, but it is your responsibility to attend school daily, display appropriate behavior, and reach your fullest potential so that you are well prepared for the future. At WISD, every student will have the necessary support to excel. We are committed to building a supportive structure that assists students in making data-based decisions in order to ensure that their individual needs are met. High school campuses are staffed with experts such as academic counselors, college readiness specialists, and social workers that are available to help students determine educational, personal and career goals. Planning early is critical in your success. Please use this catalog to plan and always be cognizant of what you need for graduation and for the post-secondary institution of your choice. I wish you a very successful educational career. Remember, the world that you will enter when you graduate from high school is very different from the world of generations past. The access to information that technology now provides each of us and the speed at which that information is delivered has transformed our world. As your superintendent, I will ensure that our district provides you with a quality education that builds a strong foundation that will help you succeed and achieve in a globally competitive world. I am confident that the skills you acquire throughout the next four years will prepare you to compete with students from this country as well as with students from around the world. INTRODUCTION III The Weslaco Independent School District Course Catalog lists the courses that our high schools make available to students. It should be noted, however, that not all of the courses listed are scheduled every year. Since it is not economically feasible to schedule classes in which only a few students enroll, the class may not be offered for the current year or on all campuses. Sufficient number of student request for specific courses then become the determining factor as to whether or not a course is scheduled. The Course Catalog is also available online.

  • Lupe Rodriguez (Mission) Holds the Valley’S Record for Passing Yards of 6,917 at Mission High, and Went on to Play for Stephen F
    2 x Rio Grande Valley Sports Hall of Fame President’s Message Welcome to the 28th Annual Rio Grande Valley Sports Hall of Fame Induction Banquet. This 2015 event is the first year that we host at the new and beautiful Port Isabel Events Center. The Board of Directors are happy to be here this evening and are glad everyone could join us tonight for this year’s Induction Banquet. The RGV Sports Hall of Fame is a non-profit organization dedicated in bringing recognition to our local talent that have exposed the Rio Grande Valley throughout Texas and the nation. Tonight will be a memorable night for the inductees and their families. We all look forward to hear about their stories of the past and some of the most memorable moments they remember during their sports careers. I would like to congratulate this year’s 2015 Class of nine inductees. It is a diverse group consisting of one woman – Stacey Seibert Banks (Harlingen) who averaged 23.1 points per game at Harlingen High School, who participated in NCAA Division I basketball at Texas Tech University, and who was a member of the 1987 U.S. Olympic Festival Team. The eight men start with Tommy Barker (Weslaco), who was a two-time All-State basketball player at Weslaco High and moved on to play in the National Basketball Association. Juan De Dios Garcia (Brownsville) coached Brownsville Hanna for three decades and has been inducted into the Texas Association of Soccer Coaches Hall of Honor. Alonso “Knot” Garcia (Edinburg) helped lead Pan American University baseball to the 1964 NAIA District Championship and Texas A&I University, where he became part of the 1959 NAIA National Championship team.
