Melissa ISD is the last North Texas district to head back to school

It’s the first day of school for the last district in our area.

The Melissa Independent School District in northern Collin County welcomed students back on Tuesday.

The district had a little less than 5,000 students enrolled last year.

It opened its new high school football stadium with more than 10,000 seats last week.
