Attention 8th-grade parents
The Early College High School parent informational meetings are coming up – Dec. 3 & 5. Learn how your child can start earning credit while attending high school. See you there!
Attendance Matters!
DeSoto ISD wants to share tips with our parents/guardians on how to decrease attendance issues and avoid truancy by encouraging parents/guardians to be involved with homework, set a time for your child to go to bed, inform your child's teacher or other campus personnel when he/she will be absent.
Get to Class on-Time!
DeSoto ISD encourages students to THINK BEFORE YOU POST
- Keeping with the district’s FOCUS initiative which hones in on Finance, Organizational Redesign, Campuses and Classrooms, Unity and Systems and sustainability, DeSoto ISD urges everyone to think before you post (Systems and Sustainability)!

Join the PTA
We are starting our PTA membership drive, and this year we are offering students a special incentive for getting at least 1 parent to join. All students will receive an entry into a drawing for a free Six Flags ticket to be used at anytime for every paid PTA membership. Membership dues are only $10, and the proceeds go help West's campus. Please consider joining!
