Bird's Eye View Parent Edition
25-26 NEWSLETTER FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Dear Hawk Families,
Welcome to April!🌷
April is the time of year where we have the opportunity to showcase our student's hard work. They work so hard all year to achieve at high levels and in April they show what they know through the state STAAR assessment. We know they will make us proud!
On April 1st registration for the 2026-2027 School Year began. It is important our families register for next school year early. Early registration helps us plan on how many class sections of each grade level we will need and prevents teachers from having to be added or cut once the 2026-2027 school year has already begun. Students who have fully pre-registered - completed the online registration and uploaded all required documents, will have FREE DRESS beginning Friday, May 1st for the remainder of the school year. Students who will not be returning to EPISD next year, will complete an online form and can also qualify for the FREE DRESS incentive, if completed by May 1st. Once students have completed the requirements and qualify for FREE Dress will be notified by the office staff.

Ms. Jones Announcement
I want to take a moment to announce that my husband has retired from the U.S. Army, after over twenty years of service. Our family has made the difficult decision to leave El Paso and move to the Dallas/Fort Worth area in June, at the end of the school year.
I have poured my heart and soul into Bobby Joe Hill these last 3 years and it will always hold a special place in my heart. We have a truly amazing community and it has been such an honor to be apart of it.
I want to Thank each of you for your love, kindness and support. Together we have built something really great here at Bobby Joe Hill and I know it will continue to grow and flourish for many years to come. 💕
School Day begins at 7:50am
We Open our doors to students at 7:20am. We serve breakfast from 7:35-7:50 each day.
Instruction begins promptly at 7:50am. Any student who arrives after 7:50am is late and will be counted tardy. Excessive tardies may result in truancy and criminal charges may be filed.
Please ensure your child arrives prior to the beginning of the school day. Breakfast will not be served to students who arrive after 7:50am.
Any student who arrives after 8:05am must be signed into school by a parent or guardian.
Students are expected to come to school everyday with their district issued device and have it charged. This ensures they are ready to learn and access the curriculum.
If a student comes to school for two or more days in a row without their device, we assume it is lost, damaged or stolen and will contact the parent to begin assessing fees for the missing device. We do offer payment plans for devices and their parts, such as chargers.
