📣⚠️Attention La Joya ISD Community:⚠️📣 La Joya – At approximately 3:30 PM on September 6, 2023, a La Joya Independent School District bus was involved in a traffic accident at the intersection of 4 Mile Line and Texan Road. Fortunately, there were no students on board at the time of the incident. The bus was carrying three La Joya ISD employees who were on route to their respective destination. We are relieved to report that all three employees have been transported to the hospital for evaluation and treatment, and we are pleased to confirm that they have sustained no major injuries.

September is Attendance Awareness Month. Every day counts and being present in the classroom sets the foundation for academic achievement and personal growth.
