🌧️ Attention Mustang Families! 🌧️
Due to the rain and flooding in some areas of town, we understand if students are a little late this morning. The most important thing is for everyone to stay safe!
Take your time, drive carefully, and we’ll see you when you get here. 💙
Thank you for your understanding, and stay safe, Mustang Family! 🐎

Happy Labor Day, Mustangs! There will be no school today for students or staff. Classes resume on Tuesday, Sept 3rd.


As we are in full swing of another great school year, it's crucial to remember the safety of our students. The Ingleside Police Department has shared vital information on Texas School Bus Laws that every driver should know.
Please take a moment to read to ensure everyone is aware of the rules when it comes to school buses. Let's work together to keep our kids safe!
Educate yourself on the Texas School Bus Laws.
Here are some laws to be aware of:
1. It is illegal to pass a school bus actively loading or unloading passengers. Passing on either side of the school bus can lead to a fine anywhere from $500 to $1250 or more in Texas.
2. Texas law mandates drivers must stop when a school bus extends its stop sign or turns on its flashing red lights.
3. When a school bus is stopped, drivers traveling on either side of the road must come to a complete stop.
4. If the roadway is separated by a physical barrier (like a raised median for example) drivers do not have to stop for the school bus.
5. A roadway is not considered separated by left turn lanes only, so drivers must stop for school buses in that case.
6. Drivers can only pass a school bus if the flashing lights are no longer activated, or if it has resumed driving.
7. Drivers must always obey speed zones with flashing school zone lights and/or signs.

🖍️✂️✏️900 FREE School Supply kits were given to students at Ingleside Primary School and Gilbert J. Mircovich Elementary. We are SO very grateful to partner with The TEXAS YES Project, who made this possible. Their team of volunteers were at the campuses this morning to distribute the kits to students, and let us tell you… our kids’ smiles and little “Thank you’s” were enough to melt anyone’s heart! 💙
