Superintendent's Message

Canton ISD Families,
 
I hope this message finds each of you enjoying a restful and relaxing summer. The 2025–2026 school year was another outstanding year for Canton ISD. Our students continued to excel in the classroom and across a wide range of extracurricular activities, and we are proud of the hard work, commitment, and character they demonstrated throughout the year.
 
We are also excited about the continued progress on several major construction projects, including the new high school, Henry Lewis Gymnasium, and the Multi-Purpose Facility. These projects represent an important investment in the future of our students, staff, and community.
 
For families seeking an exceptional education for their children, Canton ISD remains one of the top K–12 options in East Texas. We hold high expectations for both our staff and students—expectations rooted in the values we share with our community. Our goal is not only to prepare students for success in college, the military, or the workforce, but also to help develop young people of strong character, integrity, and purpose.
 
We are honored to serve this community and look forward to welcoming your children for another great school year. If you have questions about the upcoming school year or would like to visit one of our campuses, please contact the Canton ISD Administration Building at (903) 567-4179. I would personally be glad to answer your questions or give you a tour.
 
As we look ahead to the start of the 2026–2027 school year, I want to share a few important upcoming dates.
