Dear Agua Dulce Parents and Students,

I would like to thank you for your patience over the last several weeks. We have worked extremely hard to keep you informed to determine when and where we would be able to have our graduation commencement for the 2020 Senior Class.

Our first priority is maintaining safety for students, faculty, staff, and parents.  We have been working very closely with several officials from federal, state, and local agencies to clarify procedures for the graduation ceremony, and what the safety requirements will entail.

Three of those officials include Governor Greg Abbott, the Commissioner of the Texas Education Agency (TEA) Mike Morath, and Nueces County Judge Barbara Canales.  They all concur that we may proceed with our graduation commencement on Friday, May 29, 2020, at the Agua Dulce Bud Bailey Stadium at 8:00 PM.

More information on the number of guests and safety requirements will be released shortly.

We plan to have a parade on Thursday, May 21st as well as baccalaureate services on Sunday, May 17.

April 17, 2020,

As of today Governor Abbott has issued a new executive order that requires schools to close for the remainder on the current school year.  Therefore, Agua Dulce ISD will be closed through May 22, 2020 to support our community and health care professionals in the ongoing goal of containing the spread of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19. Additionally, all extracurricular activities, practices and athletic events are cancelled for the remainder of the school year.

Our meal services and remote learning will continue as posted on the Agua Dulce ISD website.  If you have questions about either, don’t hesitate to contact us.

Additionally, Agua Dulce ISD asks the broader community to take the following reasonable precautions to prevent the spread of the illness:

• Don’t shake hands
• Wash your hands regularly
• Limit movement within the community, especially avoiding crowded places and maintaining 3 to 6 ft of distance between people (at least an arm’s length)
• If you are moving around in the community, don’t congregate in large groups
• For those who have traveled to areas with known COVID-19 cases – both inside and outside of the country – we ask that you self-quarantine and monitor your symptoms. Students who have traveled should plan to stay home for two weeks after arriving home. Please contact your campus to let them know, and this will be considered an excused absence.
• If you suspect you have symptoms of COVID-19, call your health care provider for medical advice .
• Keep your child at home if he/she feels ill, even if you think it is just a cold.
• Do not leave the house if you are ill, except to access medical care.

This is a difficult time for all of our students, parents and community members, but the 2020 seniors are definitely feeling this crisis more than others.  Therefore, we are making plans to honor them in several ways throughout the remainder of the year.  So please check our website and Facebook pages so that you can help us celebrate their graduation.  We will let them know how much they mean to us.

May God bless you and keep you safe!!   

Sincerely,

Richard Wright

Superintendent

DEL MAR COLLEGE and ADISD MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING

AGUA DULCE ISD RECEIVES A “B” RATING

The Texas Education Agency on Wednesday, August 14 released academic accountability ratings for school districts and campuses in Texas. The A through F ratings are based primarily on standardized tests taken by students in grades three through 12 during the 2018-2019 school year.  2019 is the first year individual schools received A-F letter grades.

Agua Dulce ISD overall rating improved from a 72 “C” to an 86 “B” rating.

Agua Dulce High School received an 82 “B” rating.

Agua Dulce Elementary received an 86 “B” rating with 4 distinctions. Distinction designations were in ELA/Reading, Mathematics, Postsecondary Readiness, and Comparative Closing the Gaps.

The district is excited to see growth across domains and we congratulate students and staff on progress made. We are grateful to our educators for their commitment to our students’ success and our families for their partnership in our success. Our district's ratings are an indication of the hard work happening in our schools to provide opportunities for student success.

It truly is an exciting time at Agua Dulce ISD. We are preparing for the 2019-2020 academic year and it is also a time to celebrate last year's accomplishments. 

Mr. Richard Wright, Superintendent 

We are LONGHORN PROUD!

Dear parents and staff of Agua Dulce ISD-

This Wednesday all school districts in the state are to receive a letter grade from TEA. I have attached a statement from the Texas Association of School Administrators. The new method has systems built in place that make it difficult for small school districts with a high number of low socieo- economic students to score well. I support TASA’s stance on the A-F System. I feel our campuses are working harder than ever to give your children the best education possible. I do not believe any grade we receive is an accurate representation of the quality of education our staff provides for the children of Agua Dulce.

Sincerely,

Richard Wright

Superintendent Agua Dulce ISD
