Texas Public Schools Week
Mock STAAR Testing Dates
Message from the Principal
Dear Grant Middle School Families,
We have an exciting and busy week ahead at Grant Middle School.
Math Mock STAAR Testing
All grade levels will take their Math Mock STAAR exam on Tuesday. This practice assessment helps us identify areas of strength and opportunities for growth as we prepare for the official STAAR exams later this spring. To ensure a secure and distraction-free testing environment, our campus will be closed to visitors on Tuesday. Please make sure your child gets a good night’s rest, arrives on time, and brings a fully charged Chromebook.
Texas Public Schools Week
This week is Texas Public Schools Week. We are proud of the incredible things happening on our campus every day and look forward to celebrating school spirit. Please see the attached flyer for our dress-up themes for the week. All outfits must follow the school dress code.
Lunch with Loved Ones
We are excited to host our 3rd Annual Lunch with Loved Ones this week. Families are invited to join their child during their designated lunch time:
• 6th grade parents – Monday 12:48 - 1:18 pm
• 7th grade parents – Wednesday 12:14 - 12:44 pm
• 8th grade parents – Thursday 11:40 - 12:10 pm
Please reference the flyer for specific lunch times. Be sure to arrive early, as all visitors must have their ID scanned in accordance with board policy. We appreciate your patience as we ensure a safe and secure campus for all students. Reminder - Parents are not allowed to bring food for other students.
Spring Break Reminder
This is the final week before Spring Break. There will be no school on Friday, as it is a teacher workday.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Let’s finish strong and have a great week at Grant Middle School!
With Cuda Pride,
Mr. Raymond Garza
