Welcome Back

All Edcouch-Elsa ISD staff kicked off the 2022-2023 school year with excitement and energy at the all-district Convocation. After two full weeks of professional learning and classroom preparation, teachers and staff were ready to celebrate the start of the new year. Amassed by our students, district staff were treated to musical performances by the awardwinning Mariachi Juvenil Azteca and a surprise performance by a local band, The Delta Boys. After Superintendent Dr. Greg Rodríguez celebrated the successes of the past year and goals for the upcoming school year, keynote speaker Rick Ramirez took the stage to tell his own story of hardship and perseverance. As the entire staff came together as a district, it allowed staff not only to show their campus pride but to share in an experience of shared hope and vision as a district. Welcome back, Jackets–we’re excited to see what this school year holds!

After an energetic convocation, we welcomed all families to a Back to School Bash in the afternoon. This was an excellent opportunity for families to meet campus staff and pick up school supplies they will need for the new year. ACE afterschool staff attended this event so families could register and learn more about the ACE program. The Child Nutrition department treated everyone to delicious hamburgers and hotdogs. The back-to-school bash proved successful with high attendance and a lot of positive energy heading into a new school year!
