📣❄️SCHEDULE UPDATE: On Monday, Jan. 26, all Corpus Christi ISD schools and offices will have a two-hour delay. Elementary schools will begin at 9:50 a.m. Middle and high schools will begin at 10:50 a.m. Bus schedules will also run on a two-hour delay. Unless otherwise notified by their supervisor, CCISD employees are expected to report to work on Monday two hours than their usual start time. Athletics and school activity coaches and sponsors will update their groups directly regarding any schedule changes. When evaluating changes to schedules, we place safety first as well as consider the many families whose work obligations will continue unchanged and students with insufficient access to heat and/or meals. Thank you for your patience as we monitored the weather and for sharing our concern for student and staff safety. If the weather necessitates additional changes to our schedule, we will send an updated mass notification as well as post to official district social media and share with local media outlets. Thank you.

Save the date! 💯🥳

Check out our daily attendance up to January 23rd! Enjoy your weekend tigers and stay warm! #attendancematters

After closely monitoring the weather forecast for this Saturday, the Corpus Christi Education Foundation has made the decision to postpone the CCEF Hearts & Minds 5K Run. The safety and well-being of our students, staff, and community participants is the foundation's top priority. Forecasted freezing temperatures and a high chance of rain could create unsafe conditions, and we believe this decision is in the best interest of everyone involved. The CCEF Hearts & Minds 5K Run has been rescheduled for Saturday, January 31, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. at Water’s Edge Park. Please stay warm and safe this weekend. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing everyone next Saturday for a fun and safe event.
