More than 6,200 students in the Canutillo Independent School District returned to school on Monday to kick off the 2022-23 academic year in the Best Small School District in Texas.
Activity at all 10 CISD campuses began early in the morning, with some schools welcoming students even before the sun was out.
“We’ve spent the whole summer preparing our schools in time for this day and we are excited to see our kids again,” said Superintendent Dr. Pedro Galaviz. “I know I speak on behalf of all of our teachers and employees when I say that we are committed to giving our students a world-class education once again this year.”
New this year are strengthened security protocols designed to keep students and staff secure while on campus.
