Winnsboro ISD is deeply saddened by the loss of Mrs. Clara Ziegler, a dedicated school board member who served our district with unwavering commitment from 1998 to 2018. Over her 20 years of service, she made a lasting impact, most notably helping to pass the 31.5-million-dollar bond in 2017 that led to the construction of our new high school. A proud 1959 graduate of Winnsboro High School, Mrs. Ziegler continued to be a strong supporter of WISD and the Winnsboro Education Foundation even after her board tenure. Her legacy will forever be a part of our district. Our hearts and prayers are with her family during this difficult time.

WISD will be closed November 25-29 for Thanksgiving Break! Have a safe and wonderful break!

Dear Winnsboro ISD Families and Staff, This morning, our staff at Winnsboro Memorial Intermediate School discovered a message written on the school's sidewalk that referenced a shooting threat. We want to assure you that school officials began investigating immediately to ensure the safety and security of our students and staff. Video footage was reviewed, and those responsible were quickly identified as minors. Authorities have since spoken with them, and after a thorough investigation, it has been determined that the threat was not credible. All students are safe, and there is no danger to our campus. The safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and we are committed to maintaining a secure and supportive learning environment. Thank you for your understanding and support. Sincerely, Dave Wilcox WISD Superintendent of Schools
