Assistance for Mary Parrish
Posted by Harvest Coats on 1/23/2023
Barton middle school custodian, Mary Parrish, was recently diagnosed with cancer. While she has only been at Barton for a short time, she is already loved by many and is a valued member of our team. Mary has been working for the district since this summer and has strong ties to Hays CISD as her children and many grandchildren have attended Hays CISD schools over the years and both her daughters work for the district.As with any cancer diagnosis, the bills and time off rack up quickly. Mary and members of her family are having to spend extended periods of time in Houston while undergoing treatment and are missing work and income. A Go Fund Me has been set up to help Mary and her family, as they battle this disease, to help with medical bills and expenses while under treatment. Her daughter, Christy Maples, is also able to accept Venmo donations that will go directly to Mary. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

In Loving Memory of Noah Rodriguez
Posted by Harvest Coats on 8/23/2022
Noah...what can I say? He was a beautiful soul with a HUGE, KIND and GENTLE heart. He was goofy and smart. Noah had a beautiful smile and an infectious laugh. He had two little sisters he loved very much and was excited to get to know his new little brother, whom they welcomed into the family two weeks ago.
Noah, in our hearts, you will always be...Your LOVE, LAUGHTER, and your SMILE are forever imprinted on our lives.
As many of you know, there are expenses anytime there is a family loss.I am asking for help for the Dunn family during this difficult time. Anything you can give is greatly appreciated; no gift is too small.
