Expectations are Clear!

Not adhering to the campus expectations is not an option. I have been crystal clear and also personally review them every morning on announcements. If you choose to NOT follow them, you are choosing to accept the consequences, including ISS, OSS, possible ALC, and of course the loss of your exemptions. Most of our campus is doing a great job with this, but if you are one that is NOT, now is the time to fix it. Disrespect will get you in trouble, so the sooner you understand rules/policies are meant to be followed, not argued, the more successful you will be not only in school but in life. If you are causing unnecessary work for us, due to non compliance to very fair rules and expectations, you will be suspended, because we are focusing on the Longhorns that are trying their best and making end of year academic success as the priority.

Driving and Parking Reminders:

• Please make sure you are parking in YOUR designated parking spot (that was paid for). A few students have been parking in visitor parking, you will be towed moving forward, there are no warnings. We're short on spots for subs and various district personnel visiting the campus for the day when you take these spots.
• Leave a little earlier, by you running late, you are causing major parking lot safety concerns. No more u-turns on 762 to bypass the traffic light, because this is very dangerous. Fort Bend County has been notified so they will start patrolling it.
• Speeding and cutting across the parking lot will result in you losing your driving/parking privileges. The safety of our Longhorns and staff is too important to me.
• Parents dropping off students in the parking lot, you will need to stay in the driveway, or pull in a spot to drop off, blocking the parking spots for staff is keeping them from being on duty on time. This creates an unsafe environment for us, and that cannot happen. Thanks for your help!

The National Security Language Initiative for the Youth or NSLI-Y is a prestigious and selective U.S. Department of State overseas immersion program for American youth. The goal of NSLI-Y is to increase the number of American youth with critical language skills necessary to advance international communication. It promotes economic prosperity, innovation worldwide, and contributes to national security and global stability by growing understanding across cultures.

Angela Robles, one of our seniors, received the virtual version of this scholarship during the fall and studied Chinese (Mandarin) for ten weeks. Her curiosity and love for the Chinese language grew in this period of time and decided to apply for the Chinese Summer Program. This past March she got results on her status and has been awarded the Scholarship for the Summer Program. She will be going to study at the Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages in Kaohsiung, Taiwan to further learn Chinese (Mandarin).
