Message from the Principal
Good Evening, Grant Community!
I hope everyone had a restful Intersession break and is feeling recharged for the remainder of the fall semester. Our next break will be Thanksgiving week, starting November 23.
I want to give a special SHOUTOUT to the 60 Cudas who participated in accelerated instruction last week! Your dedication to receiving targeted academic support will make a huge difference in the classroom and set you up for long-term success. A heartfelt thank you to the parents for supporting our students and making sure they seize this valuable opportunity! Keep up the great work!
As we reach the halfway point of the 2nd six weeks grading period, I encourage all families to check your child’s grades and attendance. It’s important to know that students may face retention or summer school recommendations based on their academic performance or attendance. Texas law requires that students attend at least 90% of school days. For us, this means students should not miss more than 9 days per semester or 18 days for the full academic year. Please make sure to submit any medical excuses as soon as possible to avoid attendance issues.
Red Ribbon Week kicks off this Wednesday! This is a wonderful opportunity for students and families to commit to a drug-free lifestyle. We’ll be hosting a variety of themed activities and discussions that promote healthy choices and raise awareness about the impact of drugs. Check out the flyers below for more details.
I hope all of our students have a fantastic week back! After prolonged breaks, our teachers use this time to reinforce classroom expectations, reset routines, and ensure that students are prepared for a smooth and successful return to learning. These transitions are crucial in maintaining a positive learning environment and setting the tone for the rest of the semester.
We appreciate your ongoing support and partnership in helping our students thrive. Together, we are building a foundation for academic success, personal growth, and a strong school community. Thank you for all you do in making this year a success for our students!
Your Proud Principal,
Mr. Raymond Garza
