Greetings Jackrabbits Families:
We have completed the first three weeks of school therefor we wish you a happy start to the next week of learning. Our students were administered important assessments to help guide our planning and pacing of instruction. Last week, Texas Education Agency released STAAR results and made these results accessible through the family portal on Skyward. Detailed information on how to access your child's results for our scholars in current grades fourth and fifth.
District Public Relations department produced an instructional video on how to properly recite the Pledge of Allegiance and the Texas Pledge. We will share this video with students, teachers and staff on Monday’s morning announcements. You can access the video with this link: https://youtu.be/78i97-u2wuY.
Construction continues on Mission Ridge Blvd due to the sink hole created by the water line break. This may delay traffic on the way to school. Please travel safe.
We do need your help by not parking illegally across the street from the campus. The streets on Bob Hope and Sky Blazer across from our building are not designated parking areas. Walking across the street especially with small children is not recommended as this creates an unsafe condition for pedestrians and drivers alike. Pedestrians are encouraged to cross only where manned cross walks are protected. Please drive and park safe around our students.
Student tardies are a parent issue. I do ask for your support in getting our students in the building prior to 7:45 a.m. Please make sure to plan accordingly so that your child(ren) are not penalized with lunch detention. Three tardies constitutes detention. I remind students to assist at home by setting an alarm, having backpacks and other materials ready so they are not rushing in the morning. Allowing scholars ample time for breakfast in the classroom to help transition into daily learning.
Thank you for entrusting our team with serving your child(ren).
At your service,
Fernando L. Miranda
School Principal
