Principal's Corner
Welcome Back!
What a great week this has been preparing to greet your children on Monday! We are more than excited to kick off this school year. Thank you to all the parents that came to Meet the Teacher! We had a great turnout! For those that weren't able to make it, we will meet you soon! :)
School is around the corner and we know many of you are wanting to prepare for it as soon as possible. Here is information about the supply list, and dress code and other information useful for the return to school. (Spanish Translation here) Other information can be found on the Freeman Website. We will be updating that information as well.
Here are important reminders:
- The first day of class for the 2022-2023 school year will be Monday, August 8, 2022. Parents MAY walk their children into school for the FIRST DAY ONLY. All parents will be expected to leave campus by 8:15 a.m.
- If your child will not be present on the first day of class, you must call the school office at 972-926-2580 or his/her spot will not be held.
- Important information will be sent throughout the year to the email address on file in your Skyward Family Access account.

· The Transportation Call Center will be open from Mon., July 25 to Wed., August 31. Parents are encouraged to call the Call Center for help with anything related to bus rider needs. The Transportation Call Center Number is 972-494-8530.
· Dear Parents: We ask for your patience the first week of school as some buses may experience delays. We have major construction in all three of our GISD cities (Garland, Rowlett, and Sachse), but we will be doing our best to deliver your students to school and home safe and sound.
At the district level, the Communications Dept. will be helping Transportation disseminate messages about the Transportation Call Center and delays.
