News and Announcements

After monitoring road conditions in our school district this afternoon, administrators have determined WISD will have a 2 hour delayed start on Wednesday, December 11.
By opening 2 hours later than normal, we allow our bus drivers to have maximum visibility to avoid problem areas on the road. It also keeps students out of the pre-dawn cold.

Buses will run their usual routes but will pick up students two hours later than normal on Wednesday.

WISD and First Student are aware that some roads, especially in the northern part of our district, remain covered in ice. Parents should expect a call tomorrow morning if First Student cannot safely travel to their neighborhood.

Your safety is our highest priority. Parents should use discretion if it is unsafe to travel from their home. Parents of teenage drivers should also use discretion and advise their children to use extreme caution if driving to school.

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and patience as we work to re-open school and we look forward to seeing our WISD Roos tomorrow!


Special Information for Wednesday, December 11

Kindergarten through sixth grade participated in a school effort that was inspired by the book "How Full is your Bucket". During classroom counseling time all grade levels read the book and discussed how important it is to fill each other's bucket which in return helps to fill your own bucket. Within one week's time the students had given more than 2500 compliments to friends and staff. The week has been filled with amazing stories about what it felt like getting and giving compliments. Crockett is an amazing place to be a part of!!!!!!

November 26th will be an early release day to kick off the Thanksgiving holiday. Crockett students will be released at 11:45am. We hope you all have a safe and happy holiday! Classes will resume on December 2, 2013.
