Trenton Independent School District

TISD Band Families,

While our school year is just getting started, we have an announcement to make regarding a change in the leadership of our band program. Mr. Waters has made the decision to take a position with another school district.

We appreciate Mr. Waters' service to our band program during his time with Trenton ISD.

Now, our district looks forward to seeing our band program continue to grow under the direction of Mr. Andrew Byrd for the 26-27 school year.

Mr. Byrd is a passionate, adaptive, and steadfast educator who recently graduated from the University of North Texas, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in Music Education and minor in Music Theory.

Mr. Byrd has experience playing music in multiple bands, as well as teaching, and providing private lessons.

Please help us welcome Mr. Byrd to the Trenton ISD family!

Trenton ISD, Here We Go!

Welcome back, students and families! We are excited to begin a new school year and look forward to welcoming our Tigers back to campus tomorrow.

As we start the year, we ask everyone to please use extra caution around our campuses, especially during morning drop-off and afternoon dismissal. With buses and car riders unloading and loading, please slow down, follow traffic directions, and watch carefully for students and staff. We also ask that all drivers use caution in the school zones and watch for the Red lights on our buses.

We also want to remind our families that our buses are at full capacity this year, which means some routes may take a little longer than expected. We ask our bus-riding families for your patience and understanding as we work through the first few days and establish efficient routines. If your child's bus is running a little later than expected, please know that we are working to safely get every student to both school and home.

We are also aware of an issue with our ParentSquare communication.The issue is on ParentSquare’s end and they are working to resolve the issue. Each campus principal is either posting First Day Info through ParentSquare or through their campus smore, so please be on the lookout for that information.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and partnership as we begin this new school year. Together, we can make it a successful and memorable year for our students. #TigersTogether

Sincerely,

Jeremy Strickland Superintendent Trenton ISD
