Dilley Independent School District

Dilley ISD is proud to recognize our DHS All-American Cheerleaders, who had the honor of performing at the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade in Honolulu, Hawaii, from December 3–8, 2025. Their presence at this prestigious event was a meaningful tribute to the brave sacrifices of those who have served our country.

We also celebrate our MHMS students, who proudly represented our district at the Orlando Thanksgiving Tour from November 25–28, 2025. They brought a little Wolf Pride to Disney as they performed in the parade and showcased their talent on a national stage.

Great job to all of our students—thank you for representing our school with excellence!

DHS All-American who performed: Madelyne Proctor, Raegan Furnace, & Jewlea Tate
MHMS All-American who performed: Aubrey Garcia, Danica Hernandez, & Sarah Marquez
