Austin ISD's 125 campuses welcomed back students for a brand new school year Monday, with district administrators and city officials touring the campuses.
Student ambassadors at Pleasant Hill Elementary showed Mayor Kirk Watson and school administrators what their school is all about.
"We were nervous to see the superintendent and the mayor at the same time but we get to show them around, show them the teachers, the students," a student named Jaden said."I think at the end of the day we want happy vibrant students who feel comfortable in their own skin and that’s what we’re all about here at AISD," Segura said.
Executive Director of Transportation Kris Hafezizadeh said his department has enough bus drivers as students get back on the bus this week. He also urged parents to make sure students have water whether that’s on the bike, walk or bus ride to school. "Put your cellphone away while you’re driving the car, especially around our schools," said Hafezizadeh. that I have read and agree
