Parent News - Spring Open House - September 1, 2021
Message from Principal Roberson
Hello Mighty Cane Families and Friends,
This week we will host our virtual open house on Wednesday September 1st at 6:00 pm. We look forward to seeing all parents and guardians that evening. Access to open house will be through our Eye of the Storm newsletter, our campus website, and Schoology. Open house will be set up for you to visit with grade level administrators and counselors, as well as your child’s teachers. The virtual meeting platform we will use will be Microsoft Teams. Be sure to check your email regularly as more information will be coming your way over the next 2-3 days. FBISD and Hightower High School are committed to the safety of all our students. We currently are encouraging all staff and students to wear mask daily until further notice. Please speak with your child to make sure they understand the expectations, and encourage them to come to school wearing a mask as we do our best to keep everyone safe. Campus sporting and fine arts events are underway and we need your support. Our students have been working extremely hard, and we would love for our parents and community to attend school events as we continue to build on the strong traditions that are present at Hightower High School. Thank you parents for all that you do and thank you being Committed to Excellence!
Sincerely,
Mr. Roberson

A/B Class Schedules
The district website shares that block scheduling has been shown, in some cases, to reduce student anxiety by virtue of smaller number of periods in the school day and extended time to delve into learning and collaborative opportunities. An additional benefit to block scheduling is that it provides more time for teachers to participate in high performing professional learning communities to increase alignment and effectiveness in instruction and development of targeted intervention and enrichment strategies.
FBISD will evaluate the effectiveness of the pilot, along with the needs of each campus, to determine the type of schedule that best meets the needs of each campus moving forward. For additional details, review the A/B Block Scheduling Pilot FAQ.
