Mesquite is a truly special place. I have two boys who have loved Mesquite. They both had amazing teachers that cared for my boys and worked hard to help them succeed. While they are now in middle school and high school, they still have wonderful memories of their mesquite family. They still talk about how much fun they had in library enrichment, art, PE, Music, and computers. I can not thank the wonderful teachers and staff enough for all the amazing ways they helped enrich my boys lives.
