Stafford Municipal School District

Last week, we came together for Stafford MSD Convocation, a celebration of where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re headed next! 🎉

From reflecting on our journey to looking ahead to an exciting future, our team kicked off the new school year with energy, pride, and a renewed sense of purpose. The Mighty Spartan Band, cheerleaders, and DJ brought the celebration to life and helped make it a day to remember!

🎥 Take a look back at the highlights from Convocation and get ready for an incredible year ahead!

The first week of school is officially in the books! 🎉 Superintendent Dr. Adam Stephens shares a quick message reflecting on a great start to the 2026-2027 school year. ❤️🖤

Take a moment to hear from Dr. Stephens as we kick off another exciting year in SMSD!

Day two of school is underway! 🍎📚

Here is a helpful guide for parent drop-off/pick-up at the elementary school. Please follow the designated route and officer directions to help keep traffic moving safely and smoothly.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school district directly. We hope everyone has a safe and successful school year!💙🚓

🎉 STAFFORD MSD IS CELEBRATING BIG GROWTH!

The 2026 TEA Accountability Ratings are in, and Stafford MSD earned an overall B rating with a score of 85! 📈
That’s a 7-point increase from last year and we are celebrating the incredible growth happening across the district! ❤️

🏆 Campus Highlights:
⭐ Stafford Elementary - 73 (C) | ⬆️ 13 points
⭐ Stafford Middle School - 81 (B) | ⬆️ 12 points
⭐ Stafford Magnet Academy - 97 (A)
⭐ Stafford High School - 90 (A) | ⬆️ 4 points
⭐ Stafford Early Childhood Center - 97 (A)
⭐ Stafford MSD - 85 (B) | ⬆️ 7 points

These numbers represent so much more than ratings. They represent student growth, teacher dedication, instructional innovation, strong leadership, and an entire district working together toward one goal: ensuring 100% of our students graduate college or career ready without remediation.

We are proud of this progress and we're not stopping here. A B is an accomplishment, but excellence is the destination.
Congratulations to our students, teachers, principals, faculty, staff, and the entire Team Stafford! ❤️💙

The momentum is real. The future is bright. And we’re just getting started!

As we get back into the school-day routine, we’re resharing this helpful video from Stafford Police Department showing the traffic flow for Stafford Elementary.

Please take a moment to watch before arrival and dismissal so we can help keep traffic moving safely and smoothly for students, families, staff, and our officers assisting on campus.

Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and for following the designated traffic pattern. ❤️💛

A little preparation makes a BIG difference during drop-off and pick-up!
