Western Hills Elementary Environmental Science Academy

Dear Road Runner Community,

Welcome back! We are so excited to kick off another incredible year of learning, growth, and connection at Western Hills.
As we prepare for the first day of school on Monday, August 4, we want to share information about the bus routes for the 2025–26 school year. These changes are designed to ensure safe and efficient transportation for all students.
Please take a moment to review your child’s route and bus stop location here: www.episd.org/page/busroutes
Bus routes are subject to change, and we will keep our community updated through that page.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our front office or the El Paso ISD Transportation Department at 915-230-2500.
We can’t wait to see our students back in the halls!

Sincerely,
Don Belknap
Principal, Western Hills Elementary

Welcome to Western Hills Elementary for the 2025–2026 School Year!
We’re excited to kick off a great year with our Western Hills 101 event tomorrow from 3:30–4:00 PM in the cafeteria.
🅿️ Family Parking:
Parking will be available in the lower parking lot. Please do not park in the front driveway or the staff parking lot.
We kindly ask for your patience—parking may be a challenge on Friday and Monday due to our increased enrollment. We’re working through a few first-week adjustments, and we appreciate your flexibility as we roll out the kinks. We will have staff outside to help you navigate where to park.
🚪 Enter the building through the gym entrance, sign in, and follow the guidance provided to help you navigate.
📄 Important Reminder:
If you have not uploaded your utility bill or required documents, please bring them with you.
Students will not be able to start school or receive their teacher assignment without all documents.
⏳ Please note: Not having your documents ready will delay your ability to attend Meet the Teacher.
We highly encourage you to upload documents in advance or stop by the office before the event to avoid delays.
📚 At 4:00 PM, our Meet the Teacher event will begin.
All families will start in the cafeteria before heading to their children’s classrooms.
We’re looking forward to seeing you, Roadrunners- Beep, Beep!
