Texas Education Agency (TEA) for the second year in a row. It is the highest rating given for state accountability based on student achievement, student progress, efforts to close the achievement gap and postsecondary readiness. We know that standardized tests are not the only way to measure a student’s success, but we’re proud that this is another way MISD is proving to be a premier district. I am extremely proud to have served Mansfield ISD for the past 10 years, and as I head into retirement and conclude my final year as superintendent of this wonderful district, I want to thank the entire community for being a reason why Mansfield ISD is a great place to live, learn and teach. Sincerely, Dr. Jim Vaszauskas Superintendent of Schools
