In an abundance of caution and the safety of students and staff in the forefront of our decisions, El Campo ISD will close on Tuesday, January 21. This closure will include all school activities.

Good Friday afternoon,
I am certain all of us are aware of the National Weather Service forecast of a potential winter storm arriving in the Gulf Coast area late Monday evening and continuing into Tuesday and Wednesday.
Although I will monitor the events throughout the weekend and may make a decision anywhere along the way, I will make a decision no later than mid-afternoon on Monday relating to Tuesday.
Please stay safe and make sure your Skyward contact information is up to date. The district will utilize a phone call, email, and text to communicate with individuals, and we also will post information on our website (ecisd.org), and through social media (Twitter or "X", Facebook, & Instagram).
