Dear Tom Lea Parents,
A holiday greeting card with a special “gift” has been sent home with your child. This is a special incentive to recognize their hard work during the first semester and includes a $5 Holiday Edition Bull Buck. We hope they are excited for this small token of appreciation from the Tom Lea Faculty & Staff. Please remind your child to keep their card safe for use in January 2025 for happy incentive shopping at the PBIS store.

Dear Tom Lea Parents, We’re excited to celebrate the season with our students tomorrow! It will be a busy day filled with holiday parties, so we wanted to share a few important details to help ensure everything runs smoothly. Key Reminders for Thursday, December 19th: Treats: If you plan to send treats (candies, cupcakes, drinks, etc.) for the party, please ensure they are dropped off with your child in the morning as we cannot guarantee delivery of items during the school day. Your understanding and support are greatly appreciated! Pizza Deliveries: If you’re arranging for pizza to be delivered to the classroom, please reach out directly to your child’s teacher to coordinate the best time for drop-off. Thank you for your continued cooperation. We look forward to a fun and festive day celebrating with our students!


El Paso ISD Board of Trustees and Superintendent Diana Sayavedra were thrilled to recognize students, community partners, parents, and staff for their dedication to El Paso ISD during the board meeting on December 17, 2024, at the El Paso ISD Administration Building. #ItStartsWithUs
