Progress Reports Are Now Available
This week marks our fourth week of school, which means Progress Reports are now available in Skyward.
Parents and students have two easy ways to view grades and academic progress:
Student Skyward Account:
Have your student log in to their Skyward account through Launchpad. From there, they can select Portfolio to view their current Progress Report.
Skyward Family Access:
Parents can also create their own Skyward Family Access account. This allows you to monitor your student’s grades, view reports, check attendance, and access other important academic information throughout the school year.
We encourage all families to take a few minutes to review their student’s progress and celebrate their successes while identifying any areas where additional support may be needed.

FLEX starts tomorrow
What Is FLEX Time?
Each student received an email today with their individual FLEX schedule.
FLEX is a structured and purposeful part of the school day designed to provide students with flexibility based on their individual academic needs. During FLEX, students may be “tagged” by a teacher for a specific purpose, such as:
- Intervention or additional academic support
- Extension or enrichment activities
- Anchor-up work
- Tutorials or reassessment opportunities
- Other teacher-directed academic needs
If a student is not tagged by a teacher, they are still expected to use FLEX time productively. Students should find an appropriate location and use the time to work on schoolwork of their own choosing—studying, completing assignments, reading, preparing for upcoming assessments, or working ahead.
The goal of FLEX is to give students choice and flexibility while ensuring that the time is used purposefully. If you are not tagged, that does not mean you have nothing to do. It means you have the flexibility to decide how best to use that time to support your own learning.
That is what makes it FLEX time!
Celebrating Our Aledo LEADS Bearcats!
Today, we are proud to highlight students who were nominated by their teachers or staff members for demonstrating what it means to be a Learner, Empathetic, Accountable, or Dedicated Bearcat.
These students are making a positive impact on our campus through the way they approach their learning, support others, take ownership of their actions, and give their best effort each day. Their actions represent the kind of character we want to see throughout the Aledo community.
Please join us in congratulating and celebrating these outstanding students for being great examples of Aledo LEADS!
We’re making it easier to stay connected in Aledo ISD!

Clubs and Organizations Parent Consent Form
In accordance with Senate Bill 12 passed by the 89th Texas Legislature, school districts are required to obtain written parental consent before allowing a student to participate in a school-sponsored club or organization.
Please review the list of clubs and organizations at your child's school and indicate your consent below. A separate form will need to be completed for each student.
Aledo High School students who wish to drive to school and park in one of the high school student lots will be required to purchase a parking permit for the 202-2027 school year. General parking sales are now open through MySchoolBucks and will remain open throughout the school year. The map displays general parking areas in green. We will have additional general parking for all students to access the Field House and Steve Wood Complex.
AHS parking permits are $50 for full-year parking and $25 for students just needing parking for the second semester. Students who purchase a senior reserved parking spot DO NOT need to purchase a parking permit separately; the cost of the permit is included with the senior reserved parking spot. Parking fees will be utilized to support safety and security-related items at AHS and AISD.
Permits will be available for pick up in cafeteria during lunches the first week of school.
If you need financial assistance with parking fees, please reach out to your school counselor.
At Aledo High School, the safety and security of our students, staff, and families is always a top priority. One way we strengthen campus safety is by requiring all students to wear their school-issued ID badge whenever they are on school property during the school day.
Students received their ID badges during Bearcats Are Back. If your student did not receive their ID, they can pick it up in the cafeteria during their assigned lunch.
Please help us reinforce this important safety expectation by reminding your Bearcat to wear their ID badge around their neck and keep it visible at all times while on campus.
Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and secure campus for all of our Bearcats!
AHS will be hosting virtual sessions for volunteers to complete their Annual Volunteer 101 training. Sessions will be at 11:00 am Please register here for one of the remote sessions.
