Dear Students, Parents, and Staff,

As we usher in the month of April, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we've embarked upon this academic year. Despite the challenges we've faced, Mustangs have exhibited resilience, dedication, and a commitment to excellence. As we approach the end of the school year, I am filled with immense pride in each and every one of you.

A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated teaching faculty and staff. Your passion for education, creativity in the classroom, and commitment to fostering a positive learning environment have a lasting impact on our students. Let's continue to inspire and empower them to reach their full potential, both academically and personally.

Parents, your ongoing support is invaluable, and I want to express my gratitude for entrusting us with your children's education. Together, we play a crucial role in shaping their future, and your partnership is essential to their success.

April marks an important time for our high school students as we gear up for the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) End-of-Course (EOC) exams. These assessments provide us with an opportunity to gauge student understanding, measure academic growth, and celebrate achievements. I want to extend my heartfelt encouragement to all our students as they prepare for these exams. Remember, your hard work, preparation, and determination will pave the way for success.

As we embark on this testing journey together, let us reaffirm our commitment to academic excellence and personal growth. Let us support one another, celebrate achievements, and navigate challenges with resilience and determination.

As we navigate the remainder of the academic year, let us continue to work together to make Nixon High School a place where every student feels empowered to succeed. I look forward to witnessing the continued growth and success of our students.

Thank you for your continued support and cooperation. Together, we will inspire success and empower every student to reach their fullest potential

We will continue with our safety checks to ensure the safety of everyone on campus. Working together, we will continue our journey to an A rated campus.

J. W. Nixon High School, Home of the Mighty Mustangs, where each day we are setting the standard…the GOLD Standard. 

And remember, here at Mustang Nation, We are Forever Green and Gold!

Wishing you all a meaningful and successful March!

With warm regards,

Mrs. Cassandra Mendoza - Principal
