October is National Bullying Prevention Month. 🧡
Every student deserves to feel safe, respected and included. At Texas City ISD, we can all help by choosing kindness, including others and speaking up when someone needs support.
If you experience or witness bullying, reach out to a teacher, counselor or trusted adult. Asking for help is an important step, and you don’t have to handle it alone.
Together, we can build school communities where every student feels they belong.

💇♀️✂️ La Marque High School Cosmetology and Barbering students got a behind-the-scenes look at the professional salon industry during a visit to Farouk Systems today.
Students experienced firsthand what goes into creating many of the products and tools used every day in salons. They saw how bottles are manufactured, learned about the chemical processes behind styling products and watched assembly lines in action as products were packaged and labeled.
The visit also gave students a closer look at Farouk’s commitment to quality and safety, including products and tools that are not tested on animals, as well as the educational resources the company provides to beauty professionals.
Experiences like this take learning beyond the classroom and salon, helping students see the science, manufacturing, innovation and career opportunities that are all part of this industry.
What an eye-opening day for our future professionals! 💈🧴🔬
