Happy Read Across America Day!
Today, we celebrate the joy of reading and the power of books to inspire imagination, creativity, and lifelong learning. Across our district, students are opening books and opening doors to endless possibilities. Let’s keep reading, today and every day!

March is Women’s History Month — a time to celebrate the strength, achievements, and lasting impact of women in our schools, our community, and our nation. We’re proud to honor the women who inspire, lead, and shape the future every day.

Alamo Middle School and Lummus Intermediate are currently operating under a Secure status due to law enforcement activity in the surrounding neighborhood being addressed by the Ennis Police Department.

There are no issues at these campuses, and this measure is being taken purely as a precaution to ensure the continued safety of our students and staff. Instruction and normal school operations are continuing as usual inside the building.

We will provide updates if there are any changes. Thank you for your understanding and continued support as we prioritize the safety and security of our school community.

A lockdown at the junior high was inadvertently triggered this morning. There is no threat, and all students and staff are safe. We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for your understanding.

Simple Do's and Don'ts for students to qualify for the perfect attendance incentive this semester.

Happy Presidents' Day! 🇺🇸

Happy Valentine's Day!

Today, we recognize and thank our School Police Officers for their dedication to keeping our schools safe, building relationships, and supporting our students and staff every day. We are grateful for all you do.

Ennis ISD is aware of recent student walkouts reported in other communities. While we respect students’ ability to express their views in appropriate and nonviolent ways, instructional time must remain a priority. Students who leave campus or disrupt classes during the school day may face consequences under the Student Code of Conduct. If you have concerns, please reach out to your student's campus.

Friday, February 13th, is an Early Release Day for all students.

Just like last semester, we will once again hold a $500 drawing for students who qualify. Perfect attendance will be tracked every six weeks throughout the spring semester. With a total of 18 weeks, your student’s name can be entered into the drawing up to three times. The winner will be selected on May 15th.

Happy School Counselor Week! Thank you to our incredible counselors for supporting, guiding, and inspiring our students every day.

EISD Family,
We hope you were able to enjoy the Wintry Mix Holiday and spend some quality time with friends and family.

We will return to school tomorrow at our regular start times. We encourage our students and staff to take extra precautions when traveling on roads and sidewalks, as some ice could remain.

Please be safe and we will see you tomorrow. Thanks again for your patience during this winter event.

EISD Family,
After driving the roads for the last couple of hours and discussing with our admin team and the City of Ennis we are going to cancel school on Wednesday, January 28th

The major roadways are improving, but will refreeze tonight. Additionally, many of our county roads and neighborhood streets will not be ready for bus traffic in the morning.

Stay safe and warm with your family and we look forward to welcoming you all back on Thursday, January 29th.

We are actively monitoring road conditions and icy areas and will make a decision regarding Wednesday’s schedule no later than 5:00 PM today. We appreciate your patience as we navigate this weather event. The safety of our students, staff, and community remains our top priority.

EISD Family,
Due to the continued icy streets and the fact that they will refreeze this evening, school will be closed on Tuesday, January 27th.

We hope to welcome everyone back to campus on Wednesday morning. Please enjoy one more day with your family.

Stay safe and warm.
