Welcome!
Welcome to a new year! We are so excited for the school year to arrive. It is such a thrill to see our students. I hope you find this parent newsletter another means of communication to keep you updated and informed about all aspects of our program. Past and present versions of our newsletter are found on our TISD RDSPD web page https://www.tisd.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=339304&type=d&pREC_ID=1817351
Please take a few minutes to share feedback with us. Let us know what you need and any ideas you have for the newsletter.
School Start Date
- The first day of school will be September 8, 2020.
- The application for families to choose their Fall option will open Wednesday, August 5th at 8am and close on Friday, August 7th at 5pm. You will receive the application through Skyward.
- Please log in to your Skyward Family Access account today to ensure you know the correct password. You will need this to answer the Options Application.
- As a reminder, the application window closes August 7th at 5pm. Because of the complexities inherent in these options, individuals must make a commitment for up to one full grading period, which runs from August 19 through September 25. If no option is made by a parent, the default will be to begin the school year with on-campus, traditional education.
