McAllen ISD Hosts Back-to-School Bash to Support Local Students

As the new school year approaches, McAllen Independent School District (ISD) is stepping up to support students and families in need. The district is hosting a Back-to-School Bash, offering essential school supplies, services, and registration opportunities for new students.

Event Details

The event aims to ease the financial burden on families by providing free backpacks filled with school supplies while supplies last. Additionally, free haircuts and physicals will be available to students attending the bash, ensuring they are ready and prepared for the upcoming academic year.

“We know things have gotten more expensive, and it gets harder. You know you have a family of one, two, or three children, and it adds up. So whatever we can do to provide that support to families. McAllen is about family,” a McAllen ISD representative said.
