Elizabethtown Independent Schools Superintendent Paul Mullins said Monday the district is ready for the 2025-2026 school year.
“We’re just looking forward to the first day of school,” Mullins said. “There’s always that fresh air of excitement that just makes it very special when it’s the first day of school.”
Mullins said everything is up and running at the district buildings as the students return to the classroom Tuesday.
He said the district is focused on addressing the needs of every student.
“We want to grow every student in our district at a minimum of one year each school year, and for those students that are behind, of course, we want to be able to help catch them up and give them interventions, and for our students that may be ahead we want to make sure we’re giving them challenging, rigorous work that challenge them and help them grow as learners, Mullins said.
Mullins asks families to be patient as the district gets transportation plans finalized as the school year gets under way.
“We’re short some bus drivers and are working the best we can to make that as smooth of a transition as possible,” Mullins said. “The first few days are always a little slower too when it comes to transportation. Just know that we’re here to help and we’re just a call away, and we’re looking forward to seeing everybody.”
