📢 Flu Vaccine Clinic

🕚 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 By the Front Office at Dr. Torres Elementary

Protect yourself and others this flu season—stop by and get your flu shot! 💉🍎

Thank you for your patience and support as we continue to improve our After School pick-up process. Please review our updated procedures below. We appreciate your partnership in helping us keep dismissal safe and smooth for all students.

Our biggest change to the After School pick-up process is the location of student release. Pre-K through 1st grade and siblings will now be released from the Rushing side of the building instead of the gym, while 2nd through 5th grade will be released from the blacktop area on Georgetown instead of the cafeteria. The drive-through process will remain the same. In the drive-through lanes, please do not park or leave vehicles unattended. Thank you for your patience and support as we work together to make dismissal smooth and safe for all students.

Happy National Grandparents Day to all the amazing grandparents in our El Paso ISD family! ❤️

We're proud to celebrate the support you bring to our students, staff, and community every day. 🌟
