Beginning tomorrow, Friday, April 10, the front foyer gate will remain closed and locked until a few minutes before 7:35 a.m. each morning.
This change is necessary due to an increase in students arriving early before staff is on duty, resulting in students being unsupervised. We have experienced several incidents that have impacted student safety, and this adjustment is being made to ensure a safe and secure environment for all students.
Please note that campus staff will enter the building through Door 19 (previously Door 12) during this time.
We kindly ask for your support in ensuring that your child does not arrive early without supervision. Thank you for partnering with us to keep our students safe.
Sincerely,
Campus Administration
Thank you for joining us for our STAAR Parent Lunch Celebration—it was a joy to celebrate with you!

📅 April 11
📅 April 18
Students will receive breakfast, lunch, targeted STAAR support, and fun incentives. Every attendance also helps their class earn a class party and parents an opportunity to eat lunch with your student!
Let’s continue working together to help our students finish strong on STAAR. Be sure to contact your child's teacher via ClassDojo to confirm his/her attendance - we look forward to seeing you there! 💙💚

We are excited to invite your child to participate in our upcoming Saturday Extended Learning Opportunities over the next three weeks. This year’s theme is “212° – Turning Effort into Power.” At 211°, water is hot. At 212°, it creates steam powerful enough to move engines. These Saturday sessions are designed to help your child reach that “212° moment” — where learning, confidence, and achievement come together.
What Students Will Experience:
Targeted academic support
Engaging learning activities
Preparation for upcoming assessments
Opportunities to earn prizes and recognition
Why Attendance Matters:
Each Saturday your child attends helps strengthen their academic foundation and builds confidence for
success in the classroom. We are also hosting a campus attendance challenge, where students can earn incentives and campuses can win exciting prizes.
Saturday Themes
Week 1: Turn Up the Heat
Week 2: Build the Pressure
Week 3: Shock the World
Event Details:
Saturday: March 28 and April 11
9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
