A Message To Our Parents
The MVISD Federal Programs Department is aware of how the Covid-19 pandemic may be impacting students and their families, some more drastically than others. We want to make sure that your student remains connected and engaged during this time and that the needs of our students and families are met. The Federal Programs Department has put together some suggested resources. If you need further assistance, please feel free to use the attached Referral Form (Link en Español ) to see how we may be able to assist. One of our staff will respond to your request as quickly as possible.
For the most current district information related to COVID-19, the start of school, and its impact on MVISD, please continue to monitor the District's Panther Strong Start website at https://www.mvisd.com/covid.
Sincerely,
MVISD Federal Programs Department
