At Weslaco ISD, we cater to over 15,000 bright and talented students and supply over 2,500 jobs for the proud, growing city of Weslaco. Throughout our 19 campuses, we constantly strive to ensure that every child in our district has the opportunity to gain a well-rounded education. We have excellent programs geared towards building on our solid foundation of academics, athletics, and arts. Our award-winning athletic programs always produce academically-strong athletes with the ability to continue their education through athletic scholarships. 
Also, our students can earn up to 60 college credit hours while still in high school at no cost through dual enrollment and concurrent courses.  Weslaco ISD partners with South Texas College, the University of Texas – RGV and the University of Texas - Austin.
We also have a terrific Career and Technology Complex that offers many industry-recognized post-secondary certifications, licenses, and associate’s degrees leading to either, more specialized instruction in a given field, or a leap forward on the path of postsecondary education. WISD is always Second to None!
