On Tuesday, March 2, Governor Greg Abbott issued an executive order that increases facility capacity to 100% and lifts the statewide mask mandate beginning Wednesday, March 10. Additionally, the Texas Education Agency (TEA) released a statement that updated health guidance for districts will be issued this week in response to Gov. Abbott’s announcement.


The safety of our students, staff and families will always be top priority. DeSoto ISD is currently assessing and evaluating how this will affect the district’s safety and health protocols. Until then, we ask that students and staff continue to follow our current practices.


Throughout this coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, district administration has stayed in continuous conversation with health experts and area officials. 


Please know that we will continue to monitor the situation and communicate any updates as necessary. 


Thank you for your continued support as we work together for the safety of the DeSoto ISD school community.
