The OnRamps US History’s students got to take a break from their college work to visit the Bob Bullock Museum! In observance of Black History Month, these students got to view the museum’s current showcased exhibit titled ‘A Better Life for Their Children.
This exhibit highlights the work of Booker T. Washington and Julius Rosenwald in creating nearly 5,000 schools to provide education to students affected by segregation throughout the South (one of which built in Luling itself)! In addition, they got to view artifacts and exhibits that highlight Texas history.

For the past few months, Luling ISD has been working on partnering with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) to enhance security across all campuses! Troopers will office out of the high school and have an increased presence districtwide, so you’ll see DPS vehicles at our schools.
This partnership started with Constable Easterling’s idea to continue to strengthen school safety, and we’re grateful for his support.
Student safety is our top priority, and we’re excited about this added layer of protection!

In Ms. Leal's 8th Grade Science class, students investigate how mass is conserved in chemical reactions using a closed system. Then, they related the conservation of mass to the rearrangement of atoms in the chemical reaction by representing the chemical equation using modeling clay. #LulingPrepare #LulingEmpower #LulingInspire

Our 11th-grade U.S. History students have uncovered the surprising significance of SPAM, Tootsie Rolls, and Tabasco sauce to American soldiers during WWII, Korea, and Vietnam! From keeping troops fueled in the field to unexpected survival hacks, these everyday items played a crucial role in military history. #LulingLearns

Gerdes Jr. High Band students competed this past Saturday at All-Region Band auditions. Over a dozen school districts from the greater Central Texas area sent their best students to compete in head-to-head auditions, where the highest ranking earns a spot to represent Region 12 in Texas. The Region 12 band is made of the best of the best musicians, led by special guest conductors, and performs music that is very advanced for their grade level. Region 12 All-Region Band students are Peyton Skelf (8th Grade Trumpet), Justin Cruz (8th Grade Saxophone), Kori Hoelscher (8th Grade French Horn), Vida Mayberry (8th Grade Flute), and Jaxson Bohac (8th Grade Trombone). #LulingPrepare #LulingInspire

We need more help!!
🚸 Join the Eagle Crossing Guard Volunteer Program! 🚸
The need for new crosswalks and safety measures for Luling ISD students is currently being discussed by city officials and school administrators. While this important project is being brought to the table and plans are considered, we recognize that it will take time.
In the meantime, we’re seeking your help to ensure the safety of our students! We have launched the Eagle Crossing Guard Volunteer Program and are looking for parents, retirees, seniors, and community members to volunteer 30 minutes in the morning and/or 30 minutes in the afternoon to help students cross major highways safely before and after school.
This temporary effort will make a huge impact until more permanent solutions are in place. 💪🦅
If you’re interested in making a difference, sign up today using the form below:
https://forms.gle/ZCXGdBzGeRxDc9bs8
For more information, please contact Julie Estrada, Volunteer with LISD 512-644-3095.
Let’s come together as a community to protect our Luling ISD students!
