Student Negative Balance Lunch Accounts
Student Negative Balance Lunch Accounts
Our Cafeteria is needing to reconcile student accounts, so please make sure your child's account is current. If accounts are not cleared, students will receive alternate meals until the account is current.
Semester Final Exemption Criteria
Please start letting your students know the requirements to be able to exempt Spring Semester Exams.
Due to STAAR testing being so late in the semester, we will implement exemptions for the second semester.
In order to exempt a final you must have at least an 80 average for the semester and meet the following attendance requirements:
No more than three tardies in any one period. (If the class is double blocked, you cannot have five or more tardies for any one period to be eligible for an exemption)
No more than three absences in any one period of the class you want to exempt (If the class is double blocked, you cannot have five or more absences for any one period to be eligible for an exemption)
Perfect attendance exemptions can be used for a class with a 70 average or above as long as you have met attendance requirements.
Through unit assessment data, students must show progress through the spring semester
Library and Cafeteria fines need to be taken care of before exemptions can be sign for academics.
