Wylie ISD trustees approved staff raises, adopted legislative priorities and recognized dozens of students during their Monday, May 18 meeting held at the Montgomery Center at Wylie High School.

The meeting began with recognitions for the parent-teacher associations at Cox Elementary, Whitt Elementary, Watkins Elementary and Harrison Intermediate, each of which earned the Texas PTA’s Platinum Voice for Every Child Award. The Cramer Elementary PTA also earned the award but will be recognized next month after qualifying following the submission deadline.

Trustees also honored dozens of students from campuses across the district for achievements in competitions and programs, including Future Problem Solvers, the SkillsUSA State Leadership and Skills Conference and multiple all-state competitions. Honored students represented campuses including Wylie High School, Wylie East High School, McMillan Junior High School, Cooper Junior High School and Davis Intermediate School.
