Anton Elem. Jan. Newsletter

As we enter the winter months, we want to remind families of Anton ISD’s inclement weather procedures. In the event of a delayed start or school closure due to weather conditions, families will be notified through the official Anton ISD Facebook page, local news channels, and our text and calling system. Please continue to monitor local weather reports and district communications to stay informed.

Anton ISD will make informed decisions regarding weather and potential school changes by 6:00 a.m. on the morning of the event, unless communicated otherwise.

As always, the safety of our students and staff is our top priority.

We are grateful for our Anton ISD School Board members and their continued dedication to our students, staff, and community. Their leadership, service, and commitment help guide our district forward and support the success of every Bulldog. Thank you for all you do for Anton ISD! 🐾

Hello, my name is Deza Ray Perez. I was born and raised in Anton and am the youngest of four siblings. I have been with my husband for 17 years, and we have been married for six of those years. We have two children, Iyanna and Matthias. When I am not busy doing all the things with my kids, I enjoy going to Rangers games and traveling. One of my favorite things to do is coach my children in the sports they enjoy.

I have been an employee of Anton ISD for three years, two of those as an elementary aide. Being around the kids brings me joy daily. Hearing “Mrs. Perez, I love you” many times throughout the day truly fills my heart. I love being able to go into all the classrooms and interact with students. The smiles I see when I am with them remind me that I am exactly where I am meant to be.

This is also my first year serving as the Cheer Sponsor, which I absolutely love! My cheerleaders have welcomed me with open arms and are always willing to jump in and help with any ideas I have. They have truly blessed me by showing me how much more love I have to give beyond my own children. I look forward to growing with them as a cheer sponsor and seeing what the years ahead have in store for us.
