Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 1, 2025.

We're kicking off the month with some exciting developments in our city. The El Paso Independent School District has just opened registration for the 2025-26 school year. Parents can now secure their children's spots for Pre-K through 12th grade, starting today. It's a great opportunity to plan ahead for the upcoming academic year.

In local government news, the City Council is holding a special meeting today to discuss the progress of ongoing bond projects. We'll be keeping an eye on any decisions that might affect our daily lives, from infrastructure improvements to community services.

On the job front, we've got a mix of good and challenging news. Schneider Electric recently announced the addition of 300 new jobs in El Paso, which is fantastic for our local economy. However, we're also seeing some job losses, with federal contractor MVF reporting that 247 El Pasoans will unfortunately lose their positions next week due to the end of a government contract. If you're affected by these changes, remember that Workforce Solutions Borderplex is here to assist with job searches and career guidance.

In real estate, the housing market is showing some positive signs. Existing-home sales in El Paso have increased by about 9% compared to last year. The average home is now on the market for about three and a half months before selling, which is a good balance for both buyers and sellers.

Turning to weather, we're looking at a beautiful spring day ahead. Expect sunny skies with a high of 79 degrees, perfect for outdoor activities. Just be prepared for some windy conditions returning later this week.

In sports, congratulations to the Granbury High School precision air rifle team, who clinched their eighth consecutive national title at the JROTC Three-Position National Championship. It's always great to see Texas teams excelling on the national stage.

We've got some exciting community events coming up. The Downtown Arts District is buzzing with activity as it prepares for its spring festival this weekend. Local artists will be showcasing their work along San Antonio Street, and food trucks will line up near San Jacinto Plaza. It's a perfect opportunity to support our local creative community.

In public safety news, the El Paso Police Department is reminding residents to be vigilant as we enter the spring break season. They've increased patrols around popular tourist areas and are urging both visitors and locals to stay aware of their surroundings, especially in crowded spaces.

On a lighter note, we're thrilled to share that the El Paso Zoo has welcomed a new addition to their family - a baby tapir! The little one, born just last week, is already charming visitors and zookeepers alike. You can catch a glimpse of the newcomer during the zoo's regular hours.

This has been El Paso Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
