Message from the Principal
Welcome to Week 4.5!
I hope everyone had a chance to enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend! A huge congratulations to all of our Cudas who competed in basketball and tennis tournaments over the weekend. Our 7th-grade boys' basketball team brought home 1st place in the Flour Bluff Invitational Tournament, and several of our tennis players placed 1st and 2nd in the CCISD Middle School Doubles Tournament. We are incredibly proud of our athletes for their hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship—both on and off the court! GO CUDAS!!! 🎉🏀🎾
Cell Phones
As we enter February, we are now six months into our No Cell Phone policy. Please remember that any confiscated phone will result in a $15 fee. We have made multiple announcements and continue to provide daily reminders about this rule.
We ask for your support in reinforcing this policy at home by reminding your child of the importance of minimizing distractions to create an environment that maximizes student learning and engagement.
Restrooms
To help keep students in class and limit unnecessary time in hallways, we will be implementing Securely, an e-Hall pass monitoring system. This platform will allow us to:
✅ Monitor restroom usage and track patterns of frequent hall passes.
✅ Limit the number of students in hallways at any given time.
✅ Encourage students to manage their time responsibly and make positive choices.
Our top priority is ensuring your child's safety and academic success. Every minute out of class is missed instruction, and our goal is to help students develop self-discipline while maintaining a focused learning environment.
Testing
Please review the testing calendar in the flyer below to stay informed about important test dates for your child. Attendance is crucial during these assessments, and we want all families to be aware of dates that will impact student grades and academic progress.
Valentine’s Dance ❤️💃
Details about our upcoming Valentine’s Dance can be found in the flyer below. As a reminder, students who violate the Student Code of Conduct may be denied entrance to the dance. Please encourage your child to make positive choices so they can fully enjoy this special event!
Home Access Center
Report cards are available on Home Access Center. If you need help logging into your account, please email our registrar and she will be able to help you reset your login information.
