EA Freshman Student Orientation
We had a great time last week during our Freshman Student Orientation. Our incoming 9th graders received important information, played fun games, and got to know their peers. It was a great way to launch our school year!

Thank you for your patience with the release of the Academy bus information. We want to ensure everyone is informed about the bus routes and schedules for academy students. These routes are specifically for students coming to Elkins from other parts of the district. Students zoned to Elkins will take the regular bus route to Elkins High School.
Please note that if you live within 2 miles of the campus, FBISD does not provide bus service. If you have any questions regarding the bus schedule, feel free to email Mrs. Martinez at rosae.martinez@fortbendisd.gov or contact FBISD's transportation department.
