PUBLISHERS/EDITORS: DR. NIKITA RUSSELL DERRICK THOMPSON

Dear Everman ISD Family, The end of the school year is upon us! On May 25, 2022, we will watch our graduates from Everman Academy and Everman High School receive their diplomas and begin the next phase of their journey by heading to college, the military, or joining the workforce. We are so proud of the EISD Class of 2022 and wish them well in their future endeavors. In addition, the Everman Collegiate High School has 39 students receiving their Associate's Degree from Tarrant County College before participating in Everman High School graduation. We are proud of each student's hard work and dedication to achieving their Associate Degree.

We will have to say goodbye to retiring faculty and staff whom we will miss dearly in the upcoming days. We are so grateful for their years of service to Everman ISD and the many lives they impacted positively.

For the returning staff, I’m so appreciative to each of you for your dedication, hard work, and sacrifice as we faced the challenges brought on by this school year. Please enjoy your time off, take care of yourselves, and return ready for the 2022-2023 school year. I am looking forward to an exciting year in EISD! Students, I’m proud of your hard work throughout this school year. Be sure to read over the summer and come back ready for a great school year!

Finally, parents, we thank you for your support each day and challenging your child to be their very best each day of this school year.

Sincerely, Dr. Felicia Donaldson

Souder Elementary

It is hard to believe that we have made it to the last six weeks of the school year, and it is going by very quickly. It is very important that we all remain focused and work hard academically each day until the very end of the year. Summer is approaching, and our students and staff are working very hard to get there.

Attendance is very important these six weeks also. Parents, please ensure that, if, at all possible, your students are at school each day for the remainder of the school year. The STAAR test is also approaching, and we want to make sure that they have every opportunity with their teachers to prepare!

#TeamSouder, let’s finish strong!

Here at Townley we hopped right through the busy month of April.

Some of our many activities included celebrating our amazing Assistant Principal Mrs. Mills during Assistant Principals Week, participating in Hope Week, 3rd-5th graders attending a STAAR pep rally at the high school, and celebrating all the hard work our students did during this past six weeks at the 5th 6 weeks awards time.

Looking ahead to May we realize the time is going to fly by. Our lower grades will get to go on a few field trips while our upper grades participate in STAAR. We are so excited to bring back some days we haven’t had in a while like Career Day and Field Day. Watch for information through email and Remind for more specific times and details. Our goal is to keep moving forward and doing our Bulldog Best as we finish this school year strong!
