Honoring Our Local Heroes!
Last Friday was an incredible night as we came together to express our deepest appreciation for our local first responders.
Our amazing Winnsboro High School Culinary students pulled out all the stops, crafting a mouthwatering feast that left our first responders truly impressed! Their culinary talents shone brighter than ever, and we couldn't be prouder.
But the festivities didn't end there! After the delicious meal, we gathered our heroes and made our way to the football field. Underneath the Friday night lights, we had the privilege of showing our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible work these brave individuals do for our community every single day.
To our local first responders, you are the true champions of Winnsboro, and your unwavering dedication doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you for being our everyday heroes!

Hey there, Winnsboro ISD family and friends! What an electrifying Friday night we had at our first Rugged Red Football game! The school spirit was off the charts as our community came together to show unwavering support for our incredible school and all the talented participants of Friday Night Lights.
Our Winnsboro Band had us on our feet with their fantastic tunes that echoed through the stadium, creating an atmosphere that was absolutely electric! And let's not forget our phenomenal cheerleaders who added an extra dose of energy to the game with their spirited routines and contagious enthusiasm!
Our football team, you were nothing short of extraordinary! Your dedication, teamwork, and grit on the field was truly commendable. You make us proud with your hard work and sportsmanship, representing Winnsboro ISD with true Raider Pride!
A shout-out to our athletic trainers who tirelessly worked behind the scenes to ensure the safety and well-being of our players. Your commitment to their health does not go unnoticed and is deeply appreciated!
And let's not forget the Raiderettes, who added that touch of elegance and skill to the halftime show, captivating the audience with their exceptional performance!
But the energy and excitement didn't end there – our amazing student section was a sight to behold! The sea of red and the roaring cheers from our students were infectious, and they played a huge role in creating an unforgettable atmosphere that pumped up our players and energized the whole stadium!
We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who came out to support the participants of Friday Night Lights. Your presence, cheers, and camaraderie truly make a difference. The unity we feel as a community, standing together in our Rugged Red, is what makes Winnsboro ISD so special.

Recently, Winnsboro Independent School District has been awarded a Jobs and Education for Texans (JET) grant in the amount of $206,432 by the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC). The grant was used to purchase equipment to expand the career and technical education programs for our Winnsboro High School Students.
The district used the grant to purchase welders, cutters, solderers and brazers for Winnsboro High School. The equipment arrived this summer and students will begin being trained this school-year.
The equipment will allow students to earn certifications in welding and various machinery through Northeast Texas Community College. These certifications will encourage employability for the students after high school.
WISD applied for the grant in the summer of 2022 with guidance from Dr. Pam Gambrel, WISD grant specialist. The extensive application process allowed for WISD to partner with community and local workforce commission members to support the district’s efforts to earn the grant. Several letters of support were written by local community members and business owners.
Prior to applying for the grant, WISD had to choose a high demand occupation and determine an opportunity to bring training for the occupation to WISD students. It was determined that providing training for a career in welding and machinery would be beneficial for our students. WISD is excited about the opportunity that this grant will provide our students.
The JET grant is funded by the Texas Legislature and approved by the governor each biennium. The TWC uses the JET grants to fund start-up costs of developing career and technical education programs for public state and community technical colleges, school districts and open charter schools in the state of Texas.
The Varsity cheerleaders encouraged school spirit on this game day Friday at the Winnsboro Elementary and Intermediate Schools!
Go Big Red!!
