September Students of the Month
- Practice perseverance
- Exhibit integrity
- Take care of yourself and others
Please note that none of the Core Values speak to our academic expectations with regard to grades earned in classes. We strongly believe that our students should also be recognized for their soft skills and positive character traits. Students who are named each month are eligible for the Student of the Year award in their grade level. Student of the Year is selected by the administrators on campus.

Attendance Reminders
We understand, however, when emergencies arise or students fall sick. If your child must miss school due to illness or a family emergency, it is required that the student reach out to their teachers for any missed instructional materials and assignments so that they student does not fall too far behind. Additionally, upon return from the absence, the student is required to:
- Submit a doctor's excuse note or written parent note*. Turn in to pink try outside the attendance office or email to: jermeka.pierott@houstonisd.org.
- Communicate with all of their teachers to get specific due dates for missed assignments.
*Please note that written parent notes are not automatically approved to excuse an absence. Events such as family vacations, hair appointments, helping a parent with a home project, etc. are not justifiable reasons for missing instruction.
