Summary

Superintendent Samuel Mihadez told staff at the Eagle Pass ISD convocation that the district has doubled its Early College Academy and expects "approximately 500 students" to graduate with both a high school diploma and an associate degree in the near future.

Samuel Mihadez, identified in the program as the district superintendent, used his convocation address to highlight recent district achievements and a major expansion of the Early College Academy. "We have now doubled our Early College Academy," Mihadez said, adding that the district expects "approximately 500 students graduate graduate with their high school diploma and with their associates degree."

Mihadez thanked the school board and staff for their collaboration and cited recent wins — including passage of a bond and student achievements such as the district spirit ambassador film reaching national festivals — as reasons to press for continued growth this year. He urged staff to "double" last year’s success and framed the expansion as a concrete opportunity to increase college credentials among graduates.
