MISD's Back to School Bash is a fun-filled, family-friendly event with games, bounce houses and other entertainment combined with the health services students need to go back to school. We are celebrating 11 years of partnering with our community to give back to our students! Our goal is to prepare our students to start the new school year.
Through sponsorships and donations, Mansfield ISD provides backpack, school supplies and brand new shoes for Mansfield ISD students—completely free of charge! Students must be present to receive a backpack, school supplies and shoes. We also offer sports physicals, immunizations and eye and dental exams.
If you are interested in helping us reach our goal, please consider making an online donation or becoming an event sponsor. The money raised will be used to purchase items distributed at the Bash and to provide health services.If you'd like to join us as a vendor, space is $375 and each vendor receives a table and two chairs. Register here.

Join us for all the fun on Saturday, Aug. 1 from 7:30 a.m. to noon at the Dr. Jim Vaszauskas Center for the Performing Arts (1110 W. Debbie Lane, Mansfield, Texas 76063).
