Tom Lea Parents,

In line with continued safety considerations and improvements being implemented district-wide, students will be receiving identification cards that will be required to be worn on campus every day. Student IDs will help us ensure the safety of our campus by allowing staff to quickly identify students and maintain secure access to school facilities. Because this is a district policy, teachers and administration will be prioritizing that student ID’s be worn at all times when on campus.

Please help us by reminding your child to wear their ID each day and ensuring it is kept in good condition. If an ID is lost or damaged, please contact the front office for a replacement. Please know that if an ID is lost or damaged, a replacement fee of $5 will apply. Student ID’s are not go home under any circumstances to ensure each teacher collects the ID through daily dismissal procedures. If your child happens to take their ID home, please notify their teacher and ensure it is put in their backpacks for safekeeping and use at school.

Thank you in advance for your support in this.

We invite all students and families to take part in our 12 Days of Christmas activities, starting this Wednesday. Each day will have a fun theme, and your participation helps make this a memorable and joyful season for our school community!

🌟 Welcome back, El Paso ISD! 🌟

We hope you had a joyful Thanksgiving break! 🦃🧡
