FISD welcomes 6,113 students on the First Day of School

Date:

The sound of yellow buses rumbled, the scent of fresh-cut grass was in the air and there was an excitement so strong, it almost felt tangible: it was the first day of school in Friendswood ISD. On Tuesday, Aug. 16, FISD kicked off the 2022-2023 school year with 6,113 students enrolled across the District.

FISD Superintendent Thad Roher said he woke up feeling calm and ready for the start of school.

“We all feel the excitement of the start of school,” Roher said. “It is one of the joys of working in education – the start of a new year with new beginnings, fresh starts and the beginning of new relationships. Our greatest desire is to serve our staff and students well from the bus stop to the last bell of the day and into the evening with extracurriculars.”

He continued.

“Our call as a district this year is to focus on the idea of taking a ‘Mustang Mindset.’ It is within our individual and collective mindset that we shape each day to serve our students and community best. As we continue to work together in the challenge of the changing norms in today’s society, partnering with our parents and community in communication, affirmation and support will set us apart as a school district.”
