♟️ Chess Club Update
There will be no 3rd–5th Grade Chess Club on Thursday, January 22nd. Thank you for your understanding!
Join us at Andress HS for another Northeast Family Connection Meeting as we share tips, resources, and support to help families navigate these important transitions together.

Due to pending storm conditions and concerns for the safety of our students and staff, we have decided to reschedule this Friday’s Chili Cook-Off to Thursday, April 2. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
All wristband sales will remain valid for the April event. If you would like to request a refund, please email the PTO at Nixoncoyotespto@gmail.com
Please note: Our Dress-Up Week will continue as planned, despite the event reschedule.
Additionally, we will still be holding our PTO meeting tomorrow at 5:00 PM in the cafeteria. During the meeting, we will be discussing upcoming February events.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Dear Nixon Community,
We would like to assure classes continue on Monday, January 12th at Nixon Elementary.
Although the water line break in Northeast El Paso has impacted several campuses, Nixon is open on Monday, January 12th. There is no impact to water services at the campus. All classes and services are continuing as scheduled. We understand that many families in the community may have been impacted and we are hoping disruptions are resolved quickly for all impacted.
District has sent a separate e-mail indicating the school closures. El Paso ISD remains in constant contact with El Paso Water Utilities and will share updates as available. Please continue to check the district website and social media page.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Sally McHalffey
Principal
