At Mercedes ISD, hope blossoms.🌿 Mercedes Academic Academy students and staff came together to create a powerful "Tree of Hope" as they continue to observe Suicide Prevention Month. With heartfelt messages of encouragement and inspiration, MAA is reminding our campus community: you matter, you are seen in this world and you are not alone. Remember, if you or someone you know is going through a tough time, reach out to a counselor or dial the Suicide Hotline at 988. 📞

Attention all Mercedes Early College Academy senior parents! ​📣 Mark your calendars 🗓 Please join us on Wednesday, September 13 for an essential Senior Parent Meeting at 5:30 p.m. in the MECA Cafeteria. Information will be provided regarding upcoming events and college readiness. All senior parents and students are encouraged to attend. See you there! 📚🎓

Suicide is a serious public health problem. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a person commits suicide every 11 minutes in the United States, making it a leading cause of death in this country – especially among teens and young adults. September is Suicide Prevention Month and students across the district (Travis Elementary, Sgt. Harrell MS, Sgt. Chacon MS, Mercedes Early College Academy and Mercedes Academic Academy) participated in South Texas Health System Behavioral Chalk the Walk. Their goal was to write words of hope and inspiration for all who come to their campus. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to a counselor or dial the suicide hotline at 988. #sthschalkthewalk
