From themed dress-up days to fun activities, April was filled with a sea of purple to show support. We thank our military families for being part of the El Paso ISD family! 🌟

The big day is tomorrow, and we can't wait to celebrate! On Friday, May 1, we are hosting a Popsicle Party for all students who have completed their registration for the upcoming school year!

We are on an exciting mission to reach 100% registration, and we are incredibly close—we are only 21 students away from hitting our goal!

Once the entire campus hits that 100% mark, every student will enjoy Free Dress for the remainder of the school year! We don't want any of our students to miss out on the fun (or the brain-freeze!), so please take a quick moment to secure their spot.


🚀 How to Join the Party

It’s fast and easy to make sure your student is on the list for tomorrow:

  • Register Online: Visit episd.org/page/register to get started.

  • Proof of Address: Remember, registration is only marked as "complete" once your Proof of Address has been uploaded.

  • Get Your Treat: Once registered with the required documents, your student is all set for their popsicle tomorrow!

Let's get those last 21 registrations in and earn Free Dress for the whole school! Thank you for your continued support of our community. 🚀✨

Our PK class with Mrs. Martinez had a wonderful time learning about Earth Day! Students explored ways to take care of our planet by talking about recycling, keeping our environment clean, and helping nature. They enjoyed fun, hands-on activities that helped them understand how even small actions can make a big difference.

While we dedicate April to you, we want you to know that we appreciate the sacrifices you and your family make every single day of the year. You are an essential part of our community. Thank you for your service!
