Our first round of testing was smooth and is now complete. Thanks to all students who focused and did their best! The next round of testing will be in May. If your 7th or 8th grader received an invitation letter to apply for National Junior Honor Society last week, the applications are due to Mrs. Geist by April 11. All students who had a 90 average or higher in their 4 core classes are eligible to apply for NJHS membership. Please contact Mrs. Geist if you have any questions.
This week's attendance rate...
Our LVMS campus goal is to reach 98%!!
This week's attendance rate = 97% (Way to go!!)
Attendance: Spring is the time of the year when absences start to pile up. Be sure you are aware of the consequences for your student missing too much school. Our campus goal is to reach 98%. If a student is at school, we receive funding for that student. If they are not in school, we do not receive funding.
Weird, but true, attendance fact: If your student is present for any part of the school day and leaves for a medical appointment, they won't get counted absent for that day as long as they bring a doctor's note. If they are absent for the entire day for a doctor's appointment, it will be counted as an absence.
If you need to talk to us about your child's attendance, including absences, doctor's notes, students needing to leave school early, please call our attendance clerk,monica_kaiser@lagovista.txed.net, 512-267-8300 #2503.
