Is your child going to ride the late bus home?
Just a friendly reminder as we get closer to the start of the school year. Parents must register their students for late bus service each school year. Technology has already went in and reset the late bus program from last years rider info. If a parent has not registered their child for the late bus service, they will not be allowed to ride until they have done so.
The link if needed: They have an app on the SSO
Have a Question?
Please email your child’s counselor or assistant principal if you need assistance.

Required Immunizations for Incoming Seventh Graders
If you are a parent or guardian of an incoming seventh grader of 2020-2021, please be aware Texas state law requires all students to have paperwork indicating receipt of the flowing immunizations before they can begin the first day of school:

Moorhead Electronics Policy
Students are allowed to use electronics before school, during lunch, and after school. All devices, including phones, must be powered off and put away the rest of the day during the hours of 8:40am - 4:00pm. Vibrate is not off. Headphones and all other devices should also be put away.
Please do not call or text your child in school except during their lunch period which is fine and largely why students use phones during this time. We ask that you please contact the front desk and we will deliver the message to your child.
Please know that every room in the school has a phone that your child can use.
Students bring electronic devices to school at their own risk. The school is not responsible for the loss or theft of electronic devices, but we will do our best to help your child locate their device should it be lost or stolen.
