Saturday School
Gatesville Intermediate offers Saturday School sessions on select dates to allow you to make-up state attendance requirements. These sessions are not mandatory, but do help to earn back time missed. Due to Texas Attendance Laws, absence counts over 17 days per school year would require Saturday School attendance. Students identified to be or in near deficit of the Texas Attendance Law will be notified by the school.
