Just as our stadiums are popular spots for playoff football
games and area marching band competitions, our schools often host academic competitions.
Poteet High School, for example, will be working overtime as the site for the
upcoming Destination ImagiNation (DI) regional competition on Saturday, March 1.
With some help from the Austin Elementary campus as well, the
two schools will host the DI East Texas Region Creative Problem Solving
Tournament.
Out of the 300 teams competing, I’m proud to say that 160
will be from Mesquite ISD.
Thank you to the faithful appraisers and judges who, year
after year, help make this highly creative, engaging learning competition
possible. Our challenge now, though, is that DI keeps growing in popularity
here. As a result, more adult volunteers are needed than ever.
If you’d like to get involved, please save these dates:
Saturday, February 1, for training in the morning, and Saturday, March 1, for
volunteering at the tournament.
