Hello El Paso ISD Community,

We are officially into the second week of the 2026-27 school year, and our campuses are already buzzing with learning, connection, and opportunity. As we look ahead to the official release of the Texas Education Agency's (TEA) accountability ratings on August 14, I am encouraged by our preliminary data, which points to strong results and continued progress across El Paso ISD. While these ratings are one measure of our district's success, they reflect the dedication of our educators, staff, and campus leaders who remain focused on helping every student thrive. We are proud of the progress we've made, grateful for your tireless efforts, and determined to keep building on that momentum as we continue to deliver academic excellence and promise of a brighter future for every child.

Sincerely,

Dr. Brian Lusk
Superintendent of Schools
