Early Dismissal for Curtis Elementary 11-18-2022

Shortly after noon today, there was an issue with a boiler at Curtis Elementary that resulted in a loss of power at that campus. Students and staff were evacuated after this incident triggered the fire alarm but have since returned to the building.

While the Weatherford ISD Maintenance Department is actively working to restore power, we expect the power to be out for up to 4 hours.

Curtis parents may begin picking students now. We will be using the School Dismissal Manager app, so please plan to follow our normal pick up process. Please remain in your car. A staff member will bring your child to you.

Students who are not picked up by 2:00 pm will be moved to the cafeteria where we will have remote power. If parents of bus riders cannot pick up their children before dismissal, these students will ride on their normal bus route this afternoon.

There will be no Kids Unite for Curtis Elementary students this afternoon.

Thank you for your patience as we work to dismiss our students safely and efficiently this afternoon.

WISD Earns Superior Rating from FIRST

WISD Earns Superior Achievement from FIRST

For the 20th consecutive year, Weatherford ISD earned the top-level Superior Achievement rating from the Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas (FIRST).

The FIRST rating system was adopted during the 1999 Texas Legislative session and was implemented in 2003 for the 2001-2002 fiscal year. The process for determining the 2021-2022 ratings was based on 20 indicators taken from the audited financial information for the 2020-2021 school year. Weatherford ISD has always received a Superior Achievement rating, the highest ranking available from FIRST.

“I am so proud of our Business and Operations Department and their ongoing commitment to ensure Weatherford ISD follows strong financial management practices,” said Superintendent Dr. Beau Rees. “A ‘superior’ rating is an honor and a testament to how our district utilizes funds to ensure we are fiscally responsible with taxpayer dollars.”

The primary goal of FIRST is to achieve quality performance in the management of school districts’ financial resources; a goal made more significant due to the complexity of accounting associated with Texas’ school finance system.
