Important Beginning of the Year Information
- First Day of School - School starts on Monday, August 12th. Doors open as early as 7:00 a.m. to drop off students and for breakfast. Parents may walk their students to their new classrooms starting at 7:30 on the first day only, without signing in at the front office. Starting day two, students will be asked to walk to class on their own. There will be plenty of adults in the halls throughout the week to help students get to their classroom.
- First Week of School - Please no visitors for lunch. We want students to get accustomed to their new routine and avoid any recurring separation anxiety.
Plano ISD’s Gifted Enrichment Program (PACE)
PACE is a gifted enrichment program for students who have demonstrated the need for advanced instruction. It is similar to Special Education in that it is an enrichment service designed to meet the needs of a different kind of learner. Your child may require gifted services if they perform two grade levels above their current grade, learn exceptionally fast, need only one to two repetitions for mastery, thrive on complexity, and arrive at solutions in an unusual manner. If you would like to have your child assessed for gifted services please complete the referral form found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd2jojjdCdzMx-V7R0QAMC8MN62a11gC0xwNlFm1iaI-aspQg/viewform
The deadline for referrals is Friday, September 13. Questions? Please contact our gifted specialist, Laura Dizien (laura.dizien@pisd.edu).
