The results are in! Mesquite Elementary received an "A" grade for the second year in a row. Congratulations to all the student, staff, parents and our community for being a shining star in the Gadsden Independent School District. We here at Mesquite Elementary are proud of all the hard work our students did to ensure that we achieved this accomplishment. They prove that with respect and dignity along with guidance from teachers anything is possible. Most of all we want to thank our parents and families, without your support and belief in our mission, vision and methods this would not have been possible. Thank you all for your continued support.

Welcome to another exciting school year! 

I know that we have the best students, they display this every day by showing respect and dignity in all that they do. Once again we are proud of the tremendous growth our students have made. The results for the PARCC are in and our students rose to the challenge. Because of the hard work and dedication of the Mesquite students and staff, our school is in the top ten for the state for growth in both Language Arts and Mathematics. This accomplishment belongs to our entire community. Without the dedication of students and staff, the encouragement of the community and support of families it would not have been possible. I want to thank every member of the Mesquite community for your continued investment in the future of our students.

Please know that this is your school and your presence here is wanted.  Stop by any time with concerns or to let us know that you are happy with the way the year is going. We want to take this even further by encouraging parents to volunteer in our school, stop by the office to learn how you can help to continue our rise to greatness.

I am so happy to be leading this school with the fantastic faculty and staff we have.  Each and every one of us is dedicated to your children.  We are an extension of you and we are determined to make a positive difference in the lives of your children.

Thank you so much!  Go, Mesquite Rams!

Sincerely,

Angela Silvaggio, Principal
