EPISD Family Survey:
We are asking you to take a brief survey to tell us about your experience with EPISD. To ensure we continue to provide high-quality, rigorous learning experiences that meet the needs of our learners and prepare them for college and career, we need your feedback.
The survey will begin on September 9 and close on September 27. You can take the survey online at home if you didn't take it during parent-teacher conferences. The link to take your anonymous survey is: surveys.panoramaed.com/episd/family
Please see the attached Map for Drop-Off/Pick-Up locations for Wiggs students.
Students will ONLY be allowed to enter through the gate on Circle Drive and Wright Street. Due to safety concerns, students will NOT be allowed to enter through the gate on California Ave. The ONLY drop off locations for students are Circle Drive and Wright Street. Do NOT drop off on California street and do NOT drop off in the bus drop off zones.
The El Paso ISD Transportation team plays a vital role in our community, being the first friendly faces our students see in the morning and the last as they end their day.🚌🌅 Every day, these dedicated individuals go above and beyond to ensure that every student is transported safely.💛
We sincerely thank each member of this exceptional team for fostering a positive and safe environment where our learners can thrive!🌟
