Out with the old, in with the new. 🏗️ Our cabinet traded their thinking caps for hard hats, taking the first swings to demolish our employee offices to make way for a modern, new space. Slated to open in 2027, the new offices will feature collaborative workspaces, natural light, and enhanced technology, so our team can better support the districts and charter schools we serve. We're looking forward to watching it take shape! @pbkarchitects

⚽ We're on the ball—literally. Our custom Art of Soccer soccer ball is now on display in the McKinney Conference Center lobby! Designed by Region 4's own Dave Martinez, Region 4 Design Coordinator, the 36-inch ball was generously donated by Shell and is part of a citywide campaign presented by the FIFA World Cup 26 Houston Host Committee. It spotlights moments from across the region as Houston gears up to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Stop by the MCC lobby and check it out! #ArtOfSoccer #FIFAWorldCup2026 #Houston2026 #Region4ESC

Congratulations to @StaffordMSD (1st & 3rd place) and @TomballISD (2nd place) for taking home top honors. @STAFFORDSTEM

Way to go, @WallerISD, for going above and beyond in your commitment to student safety. 🏆 The district recently completed a full-scale student reunification exercise with Region 4—one of the most complex emergency response drills a district can run.
