Eye on FISD
November 17, 2023
From Dr. Gilstrap
What a great fall semester it has been! Our students have been excelling in the classroom and in many extracurricular activities, and we couldn’t be more proud of them. We also know that their accomplishments are possible because of our families and community.
As we head into the holidays, keep in mind the importance of student attendance. Our attendance for all FISD campuses combined is at 93%. Please remember that every school day and every class are important for their individual academic growth. When you miss school, you miss out.
Thank you for your continued support. Happy Thanksgiving!
