Meeting set for Raul A. Gonzalez Fine Arts Building to accommodate well wishers
EPISD trustees will have a long and productive evening on Tuesday with recognitions to honor and celebrate quite a number of students for their successes in academics and other related school activities.
These recognitions are a held on a monthly basis throughout the year at the regular monthly meetings of the school board but traditionally near the end of the school year there are many more individual students and groups of students deserving of board and administrative public recognition.
Fittingly, the board meeting has been scheduled this month for the Raul A. Gonzalez Fine Arts Building located at the Student Activity Complex (SAC) at 5021 East Hwy 277 to accommodate hundreds of proud parents, family, and educational staff who have worked with these outstanding students throughout the year. The Fine Arts Building is located immediately on the left as you enter off of Hwy 277 and many of parents and even staff will also get their first opportunity to view this grand facility.
The meeting begins at 6:00 p.m. and the following recognitions will start shortly thereafter:
