Executive Staff To the Friends of North East ISD, Welcome to a new school year, and the wonderful opportunities for athletic competition and academic success that lie ahead. North East ISD recognizes the value in providing opportunities to students in a variety of extracurricular activities. Participation in athletics is one of the key components of our district’s 360-degree philosophy. Students who take advantage of these opportunities are more engaged and motivated in class. They are also more desirable to colleges and employers because of the training and team building experience they attained in school. The leadership and time management skills they acquire also spur their academic success. In many cases, these students far exceed the standard and earn impressive recognitions, awards and scholarships for their accomplishments. I am proud of the investment we are making in our students. Their success speaks volumes for the importance of these experiences. Community involvement makes it that much more special. You fill the stands each week to give your love, support and team spirit to your students. Many of you also volunteer countless hours of your time to support their programs. You help make their accomplishments possible. Thank you for your support across this district. Let’s have a great year! Sincerely,
