Parent Edition

Teacher will provide tutoring time

We continue to work hard to help all students achieve growth in all areas compared to last year's score. Last week our students were laser-focused on their assessments and gave it their absolute best. The data from these assessments will inform instruction during the instructional day, interventions after school tutoring, and Saturday school. Teachers will continue to reach out to parents to inform them of the different opportunities available for students. Student attendance continues to be of the utmost importance to help support student academic growth.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership in your child's education. We look forward to another great week ahead. Go Ponies!

Your Principal,

Haydee Duran

Some students will be taking their TELPAS assessment this week. We kindly request your assistance in ensuring all students charge their computer, have a good night's rest, and encourage them to do their best on their assessment. Thank you for your continued support with dropping off students on time.

Dear Parents,

We understand that mornings can be challenging and often compromised by many circumstances, however, please note that repeated tardies not only interfere with instructional time, they send the wrong message as a campus and community. In an effort to be fully transparent and communicate accordingly, please find the "In School, ON TIME, Every Day" Zero Tardy Campaign.

It is a monthly checkin and support system with reminders of our core values.

Be Responsible = "In School, ON TIME, Every Day"

Let's work together to keep our Ponies safe. Be courteous at all times and follow traffic laws. Grade level poster drop off signs have also been placed along the fence perimeter.

Please find a listing of the following athletic events.Thank you for supporting our Ponies! Dates and location are subject to change due to inclement weather and or scheduling conflicts. Should any changes occur, parents will be notified by coaches.

The new App is available on the Apple Store and Google Play. Parents and students can use the app to check out events, lunch menus, and read about school news. The app also features Rooms, which allows parents and teachers to communicate in a secure private setting.
