MISD alum credits AVID, senior leadership with building confidence for leadership roles
Summary
Dominique Waried, speaking as a MESQUITE ISD alumna at a district meeting, credited AVID classes and senior leadership for the confidence she uses now managing volunteers for the 2026 World Cup.
Dominique Waried told the MESQUITE ISD meeting that AVID classes and senior leadership in high school helped prepare her to lead. "I would like to thank my AVID classes that I took in high school and senior leadership for instilling that confidence in me that I can walk into any room and be exactly who I wanna be and own the room and own everything that I'm doing," she said.
Waried said those experiences "put me in a position to lead my classmates, help me lead the volunteers I'm dealing with today with confidence and with pride." Her remarks linked local school programs to later professional responsibilities; the transcript shows this was delivered as public comment and records no formal district response.
