BOBCAT BULLETIN #26
Academic Excellence and Success
Attention Parents and Students:
This is the 2nd week of the 5th Six Weeks. Final preparations are starting for STAAR testing; you will be getting messages from core teachers about STAAR tutorials during the week and Saturdays. Let's work together to ensure students are successful. Send students to school ready to learn! For all students who are EL, TELPAS testing will be given this week in the small gym. Students will be called out of their classes.
Also, if your child is missing multiple days of school, please call Ms. Christina Trevino to get information on how to make up hours if necessary, 956-748-1200. Students can lose credit if they have unexcused absences that can only be made up through making up hours during the Spring semester. Students will not be able to make up hours during the summer, so please stay informed on hours owed.
Teachers:
Update grades weekly to keep parents informed on their student's progress. Make sure you are adding writing into your lesson plans. Let's help prepare students for their upcoming STAAR tests!
TARDY SWEEPS
Tardy sweeps continue throughout the Six Weeks. Please continue to encourage your student to show up to school and class on time. Students have been doing a fantastic job at getting to class on time and remaining focused on learning.
TUTORIALS DURING THE WEEK AND SATURDAYS HAVE STARTED
For students who need help with Credit Recovery, STAAR Prep, or TSI Prep
