April is Autism Awareness Month! The key mission of Autism Awareness Month is to educate the new generation in fostering acceptance and kindness towards the autistic community. Please join us in wearing blue on Tuesdays during the month of April to help promote acceptance, celebrate the differences, and be more inclusive towards our friends with autism.

Our Jack PTA provides resources and opportunities for learning experiences, volunteering, and just plain fun! Please consider joining by going to http://www.jointpta.org. We love our amazing PTA and the support they provide for our Patriots!

Below you will find the link to our handbook for our families. This will also be posted on our website. Please keep in mind that this handbook is a general guideline for our campus, and we also follow the TISD handbook for district guidelines.

We wanted to send out an advertisement about following us on Twitter @jacktylerisd and follow me @BSShelby! This is a great way to stay connected to the happenings here at Jack! Our educators are also encouraged to share what is going on in their classrooms using twitter so contact them to see if you can give them a follow! You can also follow us on Facebook, as we post updates frequently and weekly newsletters.
