We have received final approval for the campus improvement plans for this school year during the last school board meeting. The district implemented a new procedure and requirement to utilize the program Plan4Learning to create our campus plans.

The information in the Campus Improvement Plan was gathered and analyzed by the Campus Improvement Committee during the summer.

Measles cases have been on the rise across Texas, with recent outbreaks reported in multiple counties. Measles is a highly contagious disease that spreads through coughing, sneezing, and close contact with infected individuals. Due to its high transmission rate, even a single case can lead to an outbreak, especially in areas with low vaccination rates.

Measles can cause fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes, and a rash that spreads over the body. Serious complications can occur, including pneumonia, brain swelling, and even death.

The best way to prevent getting sick is to be immunized against measles. Two doses of the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine are highly effective at preventing measles.

Call your healthcare provider immediately if you think you or your child have been exposed to measles.

If you think you have measles or have been exposed to someone with measles, isolate yourself from others and call your healthcare provider before arriving to be tested so they can prepare for your arrival without exposing other people to the virus. Review your and your child’s vaccination history to see if you are current on your measles-containing vaccines. Additionally, discuss your vaccination history and any questions about these vaccines with your provider.

The Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) is an English language proficiency assessment aligned to the Texas English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS). This assessment is designed to assess the progress that emergent bilingual (EB) students make in learning the English language. TELPAS fulfills ESSA requirements for assessing EB students in kindergarten through grade 12 in four language domains: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Grades K–1 include:

holistically rated observational assessments of listening, speaking, reading and writing

Grades 2–12 include online tests for:

listening and speaking

reading and writing

All EB students in kindergarten through grade 12 enrolled in Texas public schools or open-enrollment charter schools are required to participate in TELPAS. EB students are required to be assessed annually with an English language proficiency assessment until they meet EB reclassification criteria.

TheTexas State Assessment, known as STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness), is an annual standardized test for students in grades 3 through 12. It measures their knowledge and skills in core subjects like reading, math, science, and social studies. The results help evaluate student progress and determine whether they meet the state’s educational standards. It's an important tool for ensuring that students are on track for success in their academic journey.

A non-eligible student may not ride on a school bus unless they have received a Temporary Scholar pass from the home campus principal or other designated administrator.

Arrive at Pick-Up 5 Minutes Early

Times posted on this site reflect the expected time the bus should arrive during good weather. Inclement weather or traffic congestion may cause the route to run later than the posted time. We ask that all students be at their bus stop 5 minutes before the scheduled time to avoid missing the bus.

Dropping Off Kindergarten-2nd Grade Students

Parents or a documented designee must be at the bus stop to receive students ranging from Pre-Kindergarten to 2nd grade. If no one is there to receive the student, the student will be returned to the campus.

It is the responsibility of the parent to see that students who are returned to school are picked up. Any student returned three times will have his or her riding privileges suspended for the remainder of the school year.

Designated Stop/Changes

Students will be picked up and dropped off at the student’s designated bus stop. Only one location for pick-up and drop-off will be allowed.

Consequences for Violation of Conduct:

The school bus is an extension of the classroom and campus, and discipline will be administered by campus administrators. All school board policies that apply to student conduct and other student-related activities apply to the school bus.

1. The driver may pull the bus over and stop to safely manage student behavior.

2. If the student refuses to comply with a reasonable request, the driver will report the incident to the Assistant Director or Director upon returning to the Transportation Department.
3. The Operations Supervisor shall investigate the incident and notify the driver of the action taken.

Note: In the case of serious misconduct that endangers the safety of other students or the driver, the student(s) may be removed from the bus by any school official or law enforcement official.
