Bang Bear News
July, 2021
Hello Bang Families,
I am looking forward to seeing all of our Bang Bears return in August. I hope you had a great summer. The first day of school is Monday, August 23rd. Our school hours are 8:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. We will open our doors for our students at 7:45 a.m. each morning. Grab and Go Breakfast will be served from 7:45 a.m. - 8:00 a.m. Breakfast and lunch are free for all students this year.
Meet The Teacher for grades 1st - 5th will be on August 19th Last Names A-L from 5-5:45 p.m. and Last Names M-Z - 6-6:45 p.m Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten & ECSE students will have an orientation instead of Meet the Teacher on August 19th from 12:00-1:00 pm. Our wonderful PTO will be on campus selling school shirts and spirit items. If you would like to be a part of the PTO please sign up at their table. Bang Bear's love and appreciate our PTO.
Your child's teacher will make contact with you the week of Aug. 16th to welcome your child to their class, find out how your child is getting home on the first day and to confirm if you will be attending Meet The Teacher. Remember you can drop off your school supplies during meet the teacher.
The first day of school is always so exciting! There are a few things that I am sure that you want to know all about as you prepare for your child(ren)'s first day. Below you will find some Q&A items for your information that will help you to prepare for your child's return and get ready for school.
We are looking forward to another amazing school year with your child and family!
Sincerely,
Erwann Wilson
BACK TO SCHOOL Q&A
School supplies
School Supply orders were all online. Orders that were completed by July 11th will be delivered to the classroom. All other online orders will be delivered to the child's home. Parents can drop supplies off during Meet the Teacher OR they can drop them off to the campus Aug. 19th - Aug. 20th between 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. We will have them delivered to their child's classroom.

Lunch accounts

Breakfast and lunch are free for all students this year.
Student bus assignments
Parents of regular education students may find their student’s bus schedule at www.cfisd.net and/or on their student’s Home Access Center (HAC) account. Remember, the pick up time is an "estimated time". Buses are a bit delayed the first few days of school, for both arrival and dismissal.
All Pre-Kinder and Kindergarten students MUST have an adult at the bus stop to receive the child. The bus driver will return the student to the campus if an adult is not there to pick up the child.
