What's Happening at DATA What's Happening at DATA

Hello DATA Families,


As they say on TikTok, let's get into it...


There's a lot of information below, so please take a moment to look through it all. November will go by quickly and and I am seeing an uptick in student attendance issues. If you don't frequently check Skyward, I encourage you to do so to verify your student's attendance and grades.


Don't forget, Monday is early release at 2:00 and Tuesday, students and staff don't have school.


As always, for ANY concerns, please reach out to the DATA offices.


Until next time,

Mrs. Szabo

VOE Information VOE Information

For any student who will be needing a Verification of Enrollment (VOE) for their driver's license, they must already have their appointment scheduled. Additionally, the VOE request must be submitted at least one week in advance of the appointment. All VOEs are requested from Ms. Tiller (located in the DATA building, Office D26). Please do not submit your request more than one week in advance.


To be eligible for a VOE, students must be currently enrolled in school AND the student must have received CREDIT for all classes in the prior semester. If credit was not received, then the school must review the attendance history and determine that the student was there 90% of the time each class was offered. The school will supply the VOE, the student does not need to submit the form.


****Same Day Requests Will Not Be Honored****

As a reminder, all DATA students must complete at least 25 hours of service learning each year. All service learning hours need to be submitted through Skyward. Service learning is simply an act of service that is performed without compensation.

Excessive Absences Can Cost Your Student Credit for a Class

If your student is absent, it's important to submit any documentation for absences to TR Attendance Office. Your student should drop off all notes to the TR Attendance office located in the main foyer of the TR main building. Your doctor can fax a note directly to the office, the fax number is 210-650-1291. Documentation can also be emailed to the attendance clerk, Ms. Kimberly Hulsey, khulse@neisd.net. Attendance Matters All Day Everyday!

Saturday School Information Saturday School Information

If your student is in need of Saturday school, you will receive an email from Mrs. Szabo with this information. TR Administration will consistently send out blanket emails to ALL families regardless of a student's need for attendance recovery. When you check Skyward, if your student has more than 9 U or E absences in a class period within a semester, then they will need attendance recovery to earn credit for the class, even if they pass the class.


You CAN NOT attend Saturday School to "bank" hours for future absences or to recover absences to make your attendance eligible for semester exam exemptions.

Academic Support Academic Support

Again this year, academic support will be in the College and Career Center after school. The College and Career Center is open to all students and is located inside the TR Counseling Center.
