School Closure 1/23/2025 and 1/24/2025
Dear EISD Families
EISD will cancel classes on Thursday (1/23/25) and Friday (1/24/25) due to an increasing number of student and staff illnesses. Custodial and maintenance staff will conduct thorough cleanings of our buildings as well as school buses. This will not affect extracurricular activities that are already scheduled. We hope this opportunity to disinfect our facilities will help curb the number of illnesses that are affecting the greater school community. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and we appreciate your understanding as we focus on providing a safe and healthy environment for students to return to on Monday.
Thank you,
Jeremy Williams – Superintendent
Eastland ISD
