Dear East Families,

Welcome to the last week of school!! We can't thank you enough for all your support throughout this school year. We know there have been many challenges and appreciate your trust and partnership. We sincerely hope that you have a great summer break.

If your student received a district Chromebook, please return it to the campus by Friday. Make sure that it is labeled with your student's name and has the charger.

Please monitor the district's website over the summer for important information in regards to school start dates, times and new school zones.

We wish you the best as you embark on the next school year!


Please continue to take care and stay safe,

East Middle School

Visit www.DeSotoISD.org/ExperienceSurvey to access the survey.

As based on the district’s newly-introduced “Be the Future” strategic plan, stakeholder feedback is a viable, data-driven communications tool that helps district leadership assess areas of opportunity to better serve the school community.

Part of this process includes gathering open and honest feedback which is why DeSoto ISD has established this anonymous survey for our families, staff, and students.

The anonymous survey includes questions about school discipline, student support, student engagement, and safety conditions in each of our schools. There are also questions about school discipline, student support, student engagement, and safety conditions in each of DeSoto ISD’s schools.

STAAR test make-up days are:

May 24th

May 25th

We have amazing East Families! Thank you so much for supporting our staff during Teacher Appreciation Week!! We can't thank you enough!

A special shout out to the families that answered the call for help.
