Caution for Bikers, Scooter Riders, and Walkers
We have Tigers who enjoy walking home, riding their bikes home, or riding their scooters home, and I think that's all wonderful.
To ensure their safe arrival home, PLEASE remind them to stay on the sidewalk. We have had a few parents report to us lately that they see our Tigers walking, riding bikes, and riding scooters in the streets. That's too dangerous!
Please remind your Tiger(s) to remain safely on the sidewalks. They should only be in the street when it's necessary for them to cross a street in order to get home. Please, let's all work together to keep our Tigers safe.
Lastly, I'd like to remind you that tomorrow our campus will not be open for visitors as our 5th grade students will be taking the Science STAAR assessment.
With warmest regards,
Amy Russ, Principal
One Community, One School, One Book
On Monday, April 8, our school embarked on a special project: an all-school book club called One Community, One School, One Book. Every family was provided a copy of Applebossom the Possum by Holly Goldberg Sloan. Students were provided their copy of the book during library classes the first week of April. Families are invited to read the book together at home during this program.
Please click this link to view the reading calendar and to learn more. Happy Reading!
Updates for 2024 Spring Enrichment Classes
Due to our schools being closed on April 8, the Spring Enrichment classes that were scheduled for that day will be made up as shown below:
- Sign Language and Robotics will have classes on April 15 and 22
- Sign Language and Robotics' last classes will now be April 22
- Drama Kids' last class will be April 15 instead of April 8
If your Tiger(s) will attend these Spring Enrichment classes, you may need to update their SMART Tag settings with the appropriate dismissal changes for April 15 and 22. Thanks!

The remaining LTISD STAAR dates for elementary schools are:
Wednesday, April 17 --5th Grade Science
Wednesday, April 24-- 3rd, 4th, & 5th Grade Math
Visitors may enter the Front Office to conduct business in the office. Otherwise, we cannot have visitors and volunteers on campus on STAAR dates. We appreciate your understanding and regret any inconvenience this may cause.
During PE classes, all Tigers have been training to run a timed mile. One boy and one girl from each grade level will be chosen to represent West Cypress Hills Elementary in the LTISD's first annual District Mile Race.
These students will race against students in their grade level from the other elementary campuses in the district. More information and details will be sent home to the families of the students invited to attend the race.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.
With warmest regards,
Coach Amanda Williams
