Family Access to Spring 2026 TELPAS and STAAR Results Family Access to Spring 2026 TELPAS and STAAR Results

We are approaching the release of student results for TELPAS and STAAR assessment.


  • Emergent bilingual students who participated in TELPAS Kindergarten-5th grade will have access to their results on June 11, 2026.


  • Students in grades 3-5 who participated in STAAR will have access to their results beginning June 16, 2026.


For the convenience of PfISD families, we have established a single sign-on feature in Skyward’s Family Access. Detailed instructions for using Skyward’s Family Access are available here: (English, Spanish, Vietnamese), or PfISD Student’s Results. If your child’s results do not appear immediately, please know results are delivered on a rolling basis and may not appear until the next day.


The campus will be closed from June 15th until July 6th. Any voice mails left on our main phone number, 512 594-5100, may go unanswered for several days during this time.

Redemption time is 25 minutes from 7:05 to 7:30am in our Gymnasium on August 28th

Narwhal Bucks are distributed to acknowledge students for making good choices, following expectations, and excelling at school. We have created a redemption cart and stocked it with various items, but we will need your help with continually stocking the store with kid-favorite items. Students will have one opportunity per month to redeem the bucks that they earn.


Another way to support our Narwhal-Mart is to donate funds or purchase more inventory for our store items. To make a donation, please call our front office staff to arrange payment. Your money is just as valuable to us as your time!

You may send cupcakes, goodie-bag, or invitations.

We do not allow birthday parties with themed decorations, balloons, activities, etc. Students can accept goodie bags and/or food items in recognition of a birthday. Birthday invitations also may be distributed by a student as long as there is an invitation for every child (district policy) in the homeroom class. Parents are prohibited from sending celebratory items (i.e. large balloons) that would distract from instructional practices.
