Blazer Bulletin for October 16-20

Lebanon Trail High School would love to honor the Veterans in our community on November 9 at 11:15am in our school library. Our Student Council, in collaboration with our Orchestra and NNDCC Military Program, will celebrate our Veterans with a musical performance, cards of gratitude, and lunch. Student family members of the Veterans will be excused from second period in order to attend.

Please complete this RSVP Form to let us know if you will be attending by November 1st.

Frisco ISD strives to provide transparent and accessible information to parents and guardians. In an effort to continue to provide resources for our families, specifically in the library, we are updating our parent resources to provide you with access to a new feature that allows for guardians to create prohibited book lists. This list can include books that parents or guardians would like for their students to not read at this time. This feature creates another avenue for families to become involved in what their child is reading, and have more tailored access to library materials for their child.

For more information regarding this resource, please visit your campus website, and look for the icon titled Library Book Preferences. We hope that you find this resource to be a helpful tool and appreciate your partnership in ensuring that our library is a welcoming place for all children.

It is so great to see our students out supporting each other at extracurricular events. Just a reminder that as these are school sponsored events, the FISD dress code is still in place. While we love the participation of our students in designated spirit themes, please remember that these still must meet dress code standards. If there is an issue that must be addressed by the campus administration that we are unable to find a solution for, a student may be asked to leave the event. Also, a reminder that for athletic events, students must remain on the designated home or visitor side for the entire duration of the event. Students will be directed back to the designated side if determined to be in the wrong location or trying to cross over by campus administration. Students who disregard this direction by administrators may be asked to leave the event as per the FISD Student Code of Conduct.

All tickets to athletic events hosted at FISD venues (including Ford Center and Toyota Stadium) must be purchased online. No tickets are available at the front entrances, but tickets can be purchased up through game time using the ticketing website. Visit tickets.friscoisd.org to purchase season passes and individual tickets. During the 2023-24 school year, FISD fans will be able to watch live streams and view live scores of most sporting events held at FISD athletic facilities at FriscoSportsLive.com. Learn more about the subscription and streams.

Pre-sale ticket prices will be $4.00/students, and $6.00 for adults (plus additional convenience fees)

12:00 pm the day of the game, ticket sales will increase to $8.00 (plus additional convenience fees)

The College Board released the spring 2024 testing schedule in late June 2023. The dates conflict with the last two days of school and two graduation ceremonies. Late testing dates are available if students cannot test during the first two full weeks of May.

Considerations

• Graduating seniors will have the option to register for the late exam at Lebanon Trail (no additional charge)

• Late Testing Circumstances

• Building and space availability for original and late exam times

If you have any questions or concerns about any of these topics, please contact our Campus Testing Facilitator, Lauren Phillips, at phillipsl@friscoisd.org.
