"Striving for Excellence"
Welcome to Ida Diaz Jr. High School, home of the Mighty Buccaneers! Ida Diaz Jr. High School serves approximately 700 students in grades 6-8. Diaz Jr. High prides itself as a solid powerhouse where students learn to use their character to build on the qualities and values needed to become successful scholars. We are extremely proud of our students, parents, staff members, and community. Without a doubt, Diaz Jr. High is a learning community where the motto of a "Total Team Effort" is a true commitment to academic excellence and a guide that keeps our students focused in becoming the leaders of tomorrow.
Diaz Jr. High also prides itself in educating all our students in both English and Spanish. Since the 2007-2008 school year, we have gladly embraced a classroom environment where the students can begin to learn the academic curriculum in both languages so as to empower them with a wider array of opportunities for success in the future.

| Ida G. Diaz Jr. High School--Set to Be Drug Free!! |
| 11/6/2009 2:33:28 PM |
The picture below shows off the skills of the eight-graders from Ida G. Diaz Jr. High as they spelled out the words "drug free" in an effort to promote a drug, tobacco and alcohol free community. Over them was a helicopter from the Texas Department of Public Safety piloted by Kyle Argenbright as the HISD Department of Public Relations photographed the students. The entire event is part of the Red Ribbon Week Campaign to promote safe schools. Organizers of the event included Counselors Karrianne Guzman, Karin Cervantes, Office Anthony Hernandez, DPS Officer Johnny Hernandez, Hidalgo’s Police Department and the Texas Department of Public Safety.
"This is a way to give back to the kids for their daily work and to promote them to keep away from drugs, tobacco and alcohol" said Officer A. Hernandez. (Photo by A. Rosales-Korrea 10.27.09)
