The Weekly News From Liestman

Liestman Families- We take time this week to recognize and celebrate freedoms that orginated from the founding of our nation and have since then, been added to through conflict, national movements, legislation, and ultimately, the most precious gift of all, the sacrifice of life. Public education is an example of such freedoms. An excellent education is one of the most important gifts that a society can provide to it's children. It is perhaps the most critical as the hopes of our nation and of the future lay on the preparation of our future citizens.

Alief's mission is to provide an excellent education in equitable learning environments that are safe, both physically and mentally. To accomplish this mission, it is critical that we work together to ensure that our homes, our community, and our schools are safe, both physically and mentally. You will find attached to this communication our district's description of our safety protocols. Note- that all Texas schools are required to implement and practice multiple safety protocols on weekly and monthly basis. Please take time to review with your child our safety protocols and reinforce our see something, say something policy.

Thank you for helping us keep our schools safe and secure...have a good week!
