Update Consent in Skyward TODAY!
During the 89th Texas Legislative Session, lawmakers passed Senate Bill 12, which requires school districts to obtain parental consent each year before providing certain routine services to students. This law goes into effect on September 1, 2025.
In Lake Travis ISD, parents/guardians will be asked to provide consent for the following:
- Health Services – routine care provided by nurses or trained staff (first aid, screenings, medication administration, chronic condition support, etc.).
- Counseling Services – support provided by school counselors (guidance lessons, short-term counseling, prevention programs, academic and career planning, etc.).
- Student Clubs – participation in campus- or district-sponsored clubs, including academic teams, service organizations, extracurricular activity clubs, and interest-based groups.
Next Steps for Families
Consent forms are now available in Skyward Family Access. Parents/guardians may log in to view instructions and provide or deny consent.

Keeping Tigers & the 'Hood Safe
If you need to make or receive a call/text while driving, please use the legal, hands-free method of cell phone use or pull over to the curb and park to complete the call/text. It's important to be mindful of the traffic, roads, and pedestrians everywhere. No call or text is as important as our Tigers.
Also, please park in our parking lots. If they happen to be full, please park on pavement next to a curb being careful not to block our neighborhood mailboxes. Please do not park on grassy medians to avoid damaging the neighborhood irrigation systems.
Thanks for your cooperation!
Thank you for reporting dismissal changes in Smart Tag!
On Fridays, we invite Tigers to wear LT gear.
On Mondays, we invite Tigers to wear WCHE gear.

An Opportunity to Meet Dr. Null!

We have a new campus visitor/volunteer security system that requires your photo ID to be scanned each time you need to obtain a visitor or volunteer badge for building entry. The good news is that you no longer have to take the time to type in your name at the visitor kiosks, and the system prints your badge in a matter of seconds. The bad news is that you must have your photo ID and scan it every time you come because, for security purposes, this new system does not retain your ID information.
Parents Welcome to our Tiger Rally 9/12 @ 7:40 am!
Be sure to bring your photo ID!

Did you know?
Missing 10% of learning time, about 2 days each month, over the course of a school year can make it harder to
- gain early reading and math skills
- build relationships
- develop good attendance habits.
Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school—and themselves. Start building this habit in elementary so they learn right away that going to school on time, every day, is important.
As we look ahead to the next school year please keep in mind our long weekends/student holidays.
