[Dolly Parton @DollyParton]

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at https://t.co/cLu9I7M2wC

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at https://t.co/arzrqInqJA

Why is Irving ISD having a bond? The proposed 2026 Bond was developed through a long-range planning process led by the Facility Planning Committee. Key priorities identified during that process include:

• Aging Facilities: Addressing schools and facilities that have served students for decades, with the average age of the proposed replacement campuses being 68 years old
• Student Programs: Adding learning spaces for programs such as CTE, fine arts, JROTC, athletics and STEM
• Safety & Security: Updating campus safety and security measures identified during the planning process
• Technology: Upgrading network infrastructure, enhancing cybersecurity, replacing aging student and staff devices, and maintaining secure, reliable access to digital learning resources

🚌 Safety starts before the bus arrives! As students head back to school, please help keep bus rides safe by remembering these important transportation tips:

✅ Make sure students are visible while waiting at the bus stop.
✅ PreK students must be picked up by an authorized guardian.
✅ Students in grades K-3 may be released to an older sibling in fourth or fifth grade who rides the same bus.
✅ Sign up for SMART-tag alerts to receive a notification when your child's bus is about 5-7 minutes from your stop.

Find your child's bus stop, review transportation safety procedures and sign up for SMART-tag alerts at https://t.co/wJ7tF1BfVi.

Being a part of something bigger than yourself—THAT’s the Southside way here at Nimitz!
Grateful for these young men who stepped up after a long week of football camp to move furniture for counselors, set up classrooms, and volunteer with our AT’s for training drills.

[Adam R Goebel @AdamRGoebel]

Literally half of these students are @Lamar_MS Lion @iisdCTE alumni! I am overwhelmed with pride.
