Longview ISD

Rainy skies, heavy picnic tables, (and a yellowjacket nest or two)... sounds like just another workday for our Lobo summer interns. A few of our student-athletes (shown here with Lobo assistant coach Scott Hartt) helped the @LongviewISD maintenance dept. relocate picnic tables today at the admin. building, part of a larger group of summer interns serving across the district in clerical support, manual labor, tech assistance, landscaping, and even creating social media content! Between workouts, camps, training, academics, travel, and the sacred summer art of being young, these Lobos are earning spending money, helping their district, and showing the kind of steady work ethic that makes Longview so proud. Lobo pride. Lobo hustle. #LoboUp 💚

🏗️ Construction is going full-speed ahead on Longview ISD's new multipurpose facility, one of the major projects included in Bond 2024. Crews have mobilized at the project site and begun early work on the facility, which will provide Longview High School students with additional indoor space for athletic training, physical education, extracurricular programs, and campus events. The building is designed as a flexible, year-round space. It will support strength and conditioning, athletic development, student activities, practices, and special events without placing every demand on the same existing campus facilities. For a high school with as many programs, teams, and student needs as Longview High School, usable space is not a luxury. It affects scheduling, participation, preparation, and access. This project helps address those needs in a practical way. The facility follows months of planning among district leaders, architects, engineers, and construction professionals. The focus was clear: build a durable, useful space that serves students now and gives the district room to meet future needs. In the coming months, students, staff, and families can expect continued work at the site, including foundation work, structural steel, and exterior construction. This is Bond 2024 at work. #LoboUp

Congrats to recent Longview High School graduate, multi-sport athlete, and award-winning marching band performer, Ms. Ashtyn McCray for being named by @JGrantSports and @KETK as the @CHRISTUSHealth Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute Athlete of the Week! #LoboUp

📊 Some truths do not stay in a season. They follow you from the locker room, to the bleachers, to the district office. This data says a lot: 🟢 Student-athletes averaged a 3.61 GPA, compared with 3.03 for non-athletes. 🟡 That is a +0.58 GPA difference! 🟢 Student-athletes missed 4 fewer days of school per year. 🟡 They had 18% fewer absences overall. 📈 And the deeper point may be even more important: when coaches pair accountability with belief, the impact gets stronger. Students show up more consistently, perform better academically, and grow in ways that reach far beyond the scoreboard. 🐺 At @LongviewISD, we are blessed with remarkable coaches in EVERY sport. They are teachers, mentors, leaders, standard-setters, and steady voices in the lives of our young people. ✅ Athletics matters. ✅ Academics matters. ✅ Character matters. The best coaches understand all three. As a Lobo parent and administrator, I am so proud of the work being done across Lobo Athletics. #LoboUp #CoachingMatters 🏈🏐🏀⚾🥎⚽👟⛳🎾🏊‍♂️🏋️‍♂️📣💃🥁🎺🎮🎣

Needs to be a 1st ballot NFL HOF whenever that time comes. And he never forgot where he came from !! Multi purpose center needs to have his name on it !

Before the NFL, Trent Williams (@TrentW71) was a Longview Lobo. 🐺 We are seeking public input on naming the new Multipurpose Indoor Facility at Longview High School the Trent Williams Multipurpose Indoor Facility. @coachjohnking @Lobo_Football longviewisd.com/article/2977210
