The CityLab Connect

Hello there,

It has been a great 4 weeks of school. All students will receive their progress reports next week. Please connect with your student's teacher should you have questions.

Next week is Education Go Get It Week! We will be having a series of special events to spotlight college and career. We want all our students to be college and career ready!

A couple of dates I want you to know:

September 13th 6:00-6:45 - Senior Parent Meeting at CityLab. Seniors and Parents please plan to attend this event to plan for your student's senior year

September 21st Dallas ISD College Fair Night- 5:00-7:00 Bus and Dinner Provided- have students see the counselor for more info

October 4th PTO- 6:00-6:15

FAFSA/TASFA Scholarship Money meeting for senior parents 6:15

Finally- Thank you for reminding your student to wear their name badge as a safety precaution. All students now have one and will be required to wear their badge when entering the building. Next week they will get a temporary badge should they not have the one that the school provided. These badges are free for the 1st time and $1.00 for each time after that. A new badge costs $5.00 to cover the materials. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Please check the links below and our link tree for specific information.

We look forward to a great third week of school!

Please contact your student's AP for specific questions

Ms. Williams is the 11th and 12th grade AP. (angelawilliams@dallasisd.org)

Mr. Price is the 9th and 10th grade AP. (alprice@dallasisd.org

Our protocol for concerns is to start with the teacher, then the AP and finally, the principal if necessary.

As always- thank you for the support of the school! This community of parents, teachers, and students is awesome to work for, and I feel blessed every day to have this opportunity. Our door is always open for questions, concerns, or comments.

Have safe and joyful Holiday!!!

Blessings,

Principal Smith
