It was created in 1921 after the city (established in 1919) successfully petitioned the state legislature to separate from Donna and their district. The district serves the city of Weslaco, a western portion of the city of Mercedes,[1] and several unincorporated communities in Hidalgo County. This includes much of Midway South (sections east of South Midway Road),[2] a portion of Midway North,[3] Villa Verde,[4] Olivarez,[5] Llano Grande,[6] and the WISD part of Mila Doce.[7][8]
