MISD recognized milestone years of service, from 5 to 30 years. It was an honor to celebrate Coy and Krista Tipton for 30 years of service to Midlothian ISD.
From the energetic welcome delivered by Heritage High School and Midlothian High School students to the delicious three-course meal prepared by the MILE's Scratch Kitchen culinary arts program, dinner service provided by high school student volunteers, musical entertainment by the MHS Jazz Band and Flute Choir, and Honor Guard presented by Midlothian High School JROTC, it was a night to remember!
