Counselor Update
Start the 2020-2021 school year off strong!
Students and Parents,
We want to encourage you all to remain physically, academically and emotionally well during this trying time. Students please make sure that you have joined your correct google classrooms for your correct class periods. You can find your schedule on your TXeis portal accounts. Students please set up a daily schedule that will work with each of your teachers to sign in for daily attendance and complete your classwork for each of your classes.
Your IVAS Counselors are checking email and would love to communicate with you through email if you have any needs, questions or concerns. If we do not have the answer, we will find it for you or get you in touch with someone who does!

Virtual Online Learning
Students will once again need to keep up with lessons and schoolwork from home. They will need to become more responsible for their own learning and will need parent help with organizing a school schedule that will work best for them, their teachers, and their classes.
Parents please make sure that you know your students school schedules and their teachers. Students will join their google classroom for each of their class periods. Students and parents please be aware of the best way to contact your teachers (through emails, etc) with any questions.
