Board Names Performing Arts Center in Honor of Veteran Music Educator
At the regular monthly Board of Trustees meeting on Monday, April 13, 2026, Board President T.J. Shafer announced the decision to name the school's performing arts center the Gary D. Fort Center for the Performing Arts, honoring the distinguished music educator's remarkable career and contributions. Mr. Fort has dedicated seven years to New Diana and brings 47 years of total classroom experience to the district. Under his leadership, the band program has achieved extraordinary success such as; multiple UIL Sweepstakes awards and top ratings across various competition levels, appearances at UIL Military Marching Band competitions, earning gold and bronze medals at state championships, and nineteen students have been selected for the Texas Music Educators Association All-State Band during his tenure.
The timing of this honor is particularly meaningful, as the band hall is currently undergoing an extensive renovation and expansion as part of the $28 million bond package approved by voters in 2024. The project will add approximately 2,000 square feet to the existing facility, be completed by August 2026, and allow Mr. Fort to teach in the building bearing his name.
Mr. Fort plans to continue teaching until he reaches the 50-year milestone in his career, ensuring that future generations of New Diana students will benefit from his expertise and dedication to music .

Instructional Time Update Due to Weather Closure
Dear NDISD Families,
We wanted to share a quick update regarding our weather closure at the end of January.
The state has approved a waiver for one of those days; however, we are still required to make up a portion of missed instructional time. To do this in a way that minimizes disruption for our students and families, we will make a small adjustment to our daily schedule rather than adding an extra school day.
Here’s what to expect:
Beginning Monday, April 6th, the school day will be extended by 3 minutes, with dismissal at 4:08 p.m. This schedule will continue through the last day of school.
Additionally, the last day of school (May 21st) will be a full day, with dismissal at 4:08 p.m. instead of 1:00 p.m.
We chose this approach to keep our calendar intact while making the smallest possible impact on your daily routines.
Thank you for your continued support and flexibility. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
