Handbook Acknowledgement (Repeat)
You can access the handbook digitally here.
Academic Lab (Repeat)
We will pay students 2 points in Live School to stay and work on improving by completing homework, missing assignments, retaking assessments, etc. We are also recruiting students to stay and serve as mentors as well. Those students can either earn community service hours or also get paid in Live School.
Please use the Google Form below to sign up your child to get extra help via Academic Lab each time you want them to stay.
Football Game Reminders (Repeat)
5th Grade: Pirate football games are a time for us all to gather and enjoy some fantastic company and great sports. Please remind your students that the football stadium is an extension of the classroom, and appropriate behavior and good sportsmanship are expected. As a reminder, elementary students should be supervised by a parent and with you at all times.
Grades 6-8: As we gear up for our first Friday Night Lights Pirates football game, we are asking that our students sit with their families at the game. Due to our construction, there is not a middle school section for them to sit as a group and therefore, they need to be seated with a parent. We do ask that you don’t drop them off unaccompanied throughout the evening. They can sit with friends, but it needs to also be with a parent. We want our students to be there, be loud, be proud and cheer on their Pirates, but in a way that respects all in attendance.
Stay Up-to-Date With Your Child's Grades (Repeat)
We believe that frequent communication on academic progress is critical to student success. You can access your child's grades and view their progress at any time by either logging onto Parent Portal or accessing the Tyler SIS Student 360 app on your mobile device. Linked below is a quick guide on how to access your child's grades online or on your mobile device.
