Purefoy Parent Newsletter
March 9, 2023
Dear Parents,
I can't believe Spring Break is right around the corner. This year is flying by so quickly. As a reminder, we will have Open House tonight, March 9th. It is a come and go event for you to see a snapshot of what your students have been learning this year. It will be 5:00-6:00 PM for our Pre-K and SLC families and 5:30-6:30 PM for our Kindergarten- Fifth grade families. We hope to see you there!

Important Information from FISD
Purefoy Parents,
Frisco ISD frequently evolves to make sure parents are informed and can support their children’s academic needs. Recently, parents have asked for a consistent way to access students’ STAAR scores, grades, and to track attendance.
Home Access Center, commonly referred to as HAC, will soon have additional features to meet those needs and expand to K-3 students in the final nine weeks.
If you have children in fourth grade or above, you know that HAC is where you can locate your child’s STAAR scores, grades, and attendance. This will stay the same and some of those features will expand to other grade levels. All elementary parents will continue to receive the report card via email at the end of each nine weeks.
In anticipation of the HAC update, parents should make sure they have created a Gateway account. Join The Gateway and access a set of FAQs in anticipation. If you have trouble accessing The Gateway, please contact GatewayHelp@friscoisd.org.
An email will be sent out the week after spring break to share when these changes go “live” and how the HAC update can benefit parents in supporting their child’s academic success.

Picture Day will now be March 23rd!
Watches with internet/phone/texting access
If your child has a watch with internet, phone, or texting capabilities, please remind your child that they cannot use those features while at school during the day. If they need to use it at dismissal or walking home, of course we understand. If they are using those features during the day, they will be asked to put it in their backpacks. Thank you so much for your help.
