For over 125 years, the district has shaped generations of students, guided by a passionate community that puts kids first. Ganado ISD has achieved remarkable success both inside and outside the classroom. The district has earned eight team state championship titles in athletics, along with numerous individual state championships across athletics and other extracurricular activities. Its award- winning band, known as ``The Pride of the Tribe,'' has been recognized as a state marching medalist. Additionally, Ganado ISD consistently produces high achievers at the state and regional levels in UIL academic contests, art, cheerleading, One Act Play, and FFA. Under the leadership of Superintendent Dr. Jonathon Szymanski, the district continues to build upon its strong foundation while preparing students for the future. As the community gathers to celebrate this historic milestone, we congratulate Ganado Independent School District on 125 years of excellence and wish them continued success in the years ahead. ____________________
