We’re continuing our commitment to transparency by showing the current conditions at our high school.
Last week, a student desk went through the floor. What was once a small area covered by tiles has turned into a larger issue. Due to asbestos in the tile and adhesive, those materials can no longer be replaced. Our maintenance team responded quickly and safely patched the hole, but this highlights the reality of our aging facilities.
In the second photo, you can see one of our upstairs classrooms where you can see into the classroom below and hear any lessons going on in that classroom.
Additionally, Coach Guerrero’s AC unit has gone out, leaving his classroom extremely hot over the past few days. Because of the age of the unit and limited availability of parts, repairs are expected to take several weeks. In the meantime, his classes have been relocated to the library, but this does impact valuable instructional time.
We remain committed to keeping you informed and continuing to address these challenges head on.

Big news from our choir program! 🎶👏
Our students earned Sweepstakes at the UIL Concert & Sight Reading Evaluation, the first time in school history that our program has received this honor at any level!
This achievement is even more impressive considering the challenges they faced this year, including schedule changes and limited rehearsal time. Through it all, these students stayed committed and delivered a performance they can be incredibly proud of.
We are so proud of their hard work and dedication, and we appreciate the continued support of our fine arts programs.

As part of our ongoing commitment to transparency, we’re sharing a facilities update from the high school.
This morning, a sink frequently used by students was not draining properly and had a strong odor. After investigation, it was determined that the existing plumbing configuration was not allowing for proper drainage.
This is an example of aging infrastructure that requires updates, and the issue is currently being corrected to ensure proper function moving forward. A big shoutout to our district plumbers for handling the situation quickly this morning!

Perfect Attendance Pays Off! We celebrated 12 students today whose names were drawn from those with perfect attendance over the last two weeks. They won fun prizes including passes to Urban Air, Escape Room, and Black Light Golf—just in time for Spring Break! We will continue weekly drawings for students with perfect attendance. A big thank you to our businesses for the generous donations that made these prizes possible! Go Herd! 🐮
There will be no Saturday School this weekend or next due to the holiday break. Please take this time to rest and enjoy your break so you are refreshed and ready to return on Monday, March 23rd.
Thank you!

Over the past few weeks, Hereford High School has experienced several infrastructure issues related to aging pipes and plumbing systems. The photos shared here represent just a small number of the issues staff have had to address recently.
Recently, a section of wall in the teacher’s lounge had to be removed after a pipe burst and water was discovered running behind the wall. When the wall was opened, crews found older pipes that are in need of replacement. Because this pipe was located in an interior wall, water had to be shut off to students toward the end of the school day while repairs were addressed. The leak also caused damage to the surrounding area.
Another issue occurred recently when water began coming through the floor of a downstairs office, which was traced back to collapsing pipes underneath the building.
In addition to these incidents, ongoing plumbing challenges continue to surface. About two weeks ago before school started, Mrs. Alonzo arrived at 7:00 a.m. to find toilets overflowing with water and sewage. Situations like this have become increasingly common as the plumbing system continues to age.
Just today, water was coming back up through toilets in the girls’ English bathroom when they were flushed, and in another part of the building, water was backing up into sinks.
Our district plumbers have done a tremendous job responding quickly and maintaining the system as best as possible. While they continue to address issues as they arise, many of the problems being encountered are related to aging infrastructure beneath the building.
As we continue sharing information with our community, we want to provide a transparent look at some of the facility challenges our staff and students are experiencing.
