Celebrating summer success
Learning hasn’t stopped this summer! Across the district, our teachers and staff have been teaching summer school, coaching sports camps, participating in professional development and traveling with our students.
Thank you all for your commitment to excellence and making summer the season for learning!
There’s a lot of great “gossip” going around… and this time, it’s all good!
Our Positive Gossip campaign is all about celebrating the incredible moments happening across our district. Gossip ranges from inspiring teachers and standout students to exciting campus events.
We’ve already shared stories like a mother-daughter teaching duo at Rose Shaw Elementary, a Solomon M. Coles High School teacher featured in The Bend magazine, and a Mary Carroll High School student who saved a life using CPR.
We know there’s so much more to tell! Don’t keep it to yourself, share your Positive Gossip today!

District names Director of Student Health Services
As Corpus Christi ISD prepares for the 2026-2027 school year, the district has named Lea Watson as Director of Student Health Services.
Watson has 15 years of experience as a registered nurse, including 14 years in pediatric nursing. Watson will follow Veronica Sisk, who retired in June.
Most recently, Watson has served as an Itinerant RN-Lead Nurse. She has also served as a Health Science teacher at Richard King High School and has campus nursing experience.
Watson holds a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Del Mar College.
“Lea Watson brings a wealth of experience, strong leadership and a deep passion for serving children,” Superintendent Dr. Roland Hernandez said.
“We are confident she will continue to strengthen the high-quality care and support our students and families deserve.”
CCISD looks forward to welcoming students to a new school year on Tuesday, Aug. 11.
