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
Nixon Elementary

Welcome Back, Nixon Families! 🎉

We hope you had a wonderful and refreshing break. Our first semester was full of fun, growth, and exciting learning experiences, and we are so proud of all that our students accomplished. As we begin the second semester, we are looking forward to even more learning, creativity, and memorable moments together.

We are also excited to introduce our new Assistant Principal, Piper Norris, who has joined the Nixon family. We know she will be a great support to our students, staff, and families, and we look forward to the positive impact she will bring to our campus.

Our newsletter will be uploaded by Friday morning, so be on the lookout for details about our next big event(s)!

Thank you for your continued support—we can’t wait for a fantastic second semester ahead!💙🐾
