In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency. [2]

History

A former high school building was rendered useless after a 1969 tornado, so a new facility was built after that. [1]

In 2007 Donna Hale, of the Miami High School class of 1994, became the superintendent, but left the school prior to the 2023-2024 academic year. [1]

The voters approved a bond for $32 million for a new 124,000-square-foot (11,500 m2) school building in 2014; the decision of the rural Miami community to maintain its own school district and build a new school contrasts with other area communities which instead chose to consolidate with other area school districts. [1]

By 2017 the Miami ISD high school section began an early college program where students may take tertiary courses and receive associates degrees while graduating from high school. [1]
