✨👑 Disney Day at Cheer Camp 👑✨

Day 1 of Cheer Camp was a magical success!

Our Junior High and Varsity Cheerleaders kicked off camp with Disney Day and showed up dressed as a kingdom full of princesses. From classic favorites to modern princesses, the girls brought plenty of Disney magic, school spirit, and smiles to start the week.

The day was filled with learning, teamwork, leadership, and fun as our cheerleaders worked together and continued building skills for the year ahead.

We can’t wait to see what the rest of the week has in store!

📸 Check out all of our beautiful princesses from Day 1!

This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to see all that these young athletes accomplish throughout the summer.

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make Day 1 such a success. Enjoy some of the pictures from an awesome evening!

📚🐾 Exciting News for Dawson ISD! 🐾📚

We are excited to announce that Dawson ISD’s Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) application has been officially accepted by the Texas Education Agency!

This is a significant milestone for our district and creates future opportunities for additional compensation tied to student growth and achievement while recognizing the outstanding work of our educators who make student success possible every day.

So, what happens next?

While there is still work ahead before teachers can earn TIA designations, Dawson ISD is now one step closer to becoming a fully approved TIA district.

✅ Year 1 (2025–2026)
• Gathered information, data, systems, and structure
• Submitted TIA application in April 2026
• COMPLETED & ACCEPTED

📊 Year 2 (2026–2027)
• Data collection in partnership with Texas Tech University

🏆 Year 3 (2027–2028)
• Implementation year
• Award TIA designations

This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work and collaboration of our administrative team, campus principals, teachers, and staff members. We appreciate everyone who played a role in reaching this important milestone.

We are excited about the opportunities this will create for our educators and the positive impact it will have on student success at Dawson ISD.
