The storms that came through Italy on Saturday night have caused IT server damage to both our campuses. How long it will take to rebuild the damaged IT server is not known at this time. Both campuses will be without phones and internet until the server is repaired. No timeline on completing that repair is known at this time. The district has an emergency cell phone number 214-903-2825 that can be used for calls into the district but we are asking you only call this number if it is absolutely necessary. We will only be able to take messages and deliver them as soon as we are able. We appreciate your patience as we work through this issue. Campus-specific procedures will be provided to staff by the principals on both campuses.

Italy ISD is processing through the tragedy that occurred on Friday and are preparing to support our students and staff as they return to school on Monday. We are working closely with the crisis team from the Region 10 Education Service Center during this difficult time. Additional counseling staff will be available at school for the students and at Central Baptist Church main campus on Monday morning at 10:30 AM for families and community members. We are asking that visitors refrain from coming to the campuses during this week before Spring Break so that we can maintain routine and structure for our students and staff which can provide a sense of safety and security. Please reach out to your child's campus if we can support your family in any way and thank you for your help during this difficult time. Rachel L. Kistner Italy ISD Superintendent
