High School Endorsements & 4 Year Plan
Parents,
We have been visiting English Classes the week of April 22nd through April 29th to help students with their 4 Year Plans and select their Endorsements for high school. To view what your child has selected and planned, please login to Skyward and click on "Endorsements" and "Career Plans" tab. Everything that your child selected can be changed except for the courses that you selected for 9th grade.
For more information regarding endorsements, please visit the Hebron 9 Canvas page.

8th Grade Career Day
Ask your children about the career speakers that they visited on Career Day, April 18th. We had 23 speakers from various fields and backgrounds speak with our students. Student got to select 4 speakers that they would like to get more information from. Thank you to our parents and community volunteers that helped us with this event.
CBA Math Testing- Summer Opportunity
Sometimes, students have math skills that are more than one year above grade level and they are interested in testing beyond their current math class. There is one last opportunity before the start of the next school year to test. If you are interested, please email your child's counselor to consult to see if this test is appropriate for child and to register them for the test.
Testing will be at Lamar Middle School in Flower Mound. The dates for testing will range from June 24th- June 27th. There will be no make up testing or August testing this year.
External PE- Applications Due!
If you are interested in your child participating in the External PE program, please fill out the LISD application and pay the fee. We will not schedule your child for this program if the approval from the district has not gone through. If there is no approval, your child will have to take PE or athletics on our campus.
