Bobcat Families and Staff,

Due to extreme cold and potential icy conditions, all East Central ISD schools and offices will be closed tomorrow, Monday, Jan. 26.

The makeup day is scheduled for Monday, April 6, which will now be a regular school day. We anticipate returning to a normal schedule on Tuesday.

Please monitor ecisd.net for further updates. Stay safe and warm, and avoid travel unless necessary.

Stay Warm Bobcats!
