Can't Hide Our Hound Pride!
Howdy Hounds!
I hope our Hounds are having a wonderful three-day weekend as we take time to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
I want to say thank you to our Hound community for a fun-filled Winterfest! I know our students slept well after such an eventful Friday! A big shout-out to Coach Solano and the specials team for planning such a great day.
Speaking of Coach Solano, I am proud to annouce that she will be transitioning out of the gym into an instructional coaching role, alongside Ms. Jennifer Brewer. Our instructional coaches play a essential part in curriculum and instruction across our campus. We look forward to spreading her knowledge and expertise, and know that her leadership will be an asset to our school. We are also very excited to annouce that Ms. Kelly Rex will be replacing Ms. Solano as our PE Teacher. Coach Rex and Coach Garcia will be working together to provide high-quality instruction and physical education activities to our students. We are lucky to have her join our amazing team!
Tuesday marks the start of the third grading period. It's hard to believe that we are half-way through the school year, but we know our Hounds are working hard and will have a fantastic second semester. To help ensure we have the best semester yet, we will be celebrating the attendance of our students. Student attendance is a powerful predictor of positive student outcomes, and we want to ensure we have our Hounds here at school so that we can best support them. Starting Tuesday, we will be looking for classes that have 100% attendance on a given day. Classes will have opportunities to earn rewards for whole class attendance, along with badges of pride to display on their classroom doors. We have compiled a list of incentives that classes will be able to earn as they achieve days of 100% attendance. These days will not have to be back-to-back, but an overall accumulation of 100% attendance days.
5 Days – Class Hat Day
10 Days – Class PJ Day
15 Days– 15 Minutes Extra Recess
20 Days- Popsicle Party
25 Days– Pizza Party
30 Days– Bingo Party
40 Days– Movie and Popcorn
We look forward to celebrating our school attendance with our students. Here's to a great week ahead!
Sincerely,
Bethany Cunningham
Principal

Smart Tags - Important! (repeat)
Dear Lamar CISD Parents,
We are requesting every student bus rider be prepared to show their Smart Tag identification badge when they board and exit transportation starting on Monday, November 28, 2022, the first day we return from the Thanksgiving Break.
The Smart Tag ID badge is a safety tool for students, parents, and drivers. The photo immediately identifies the student, and the vertical or horizontal orientation indicates secondary or elementary grade levels. The badge allows parents to check the exact times when a student boards and exits the bus. Additionally, the Parent Portal gives users the ability to see where the bus is in live time.
The Elementary and Secondary Student Handbooks do require students to have their Smart Tag ID badge when they board and exit the bus (see p. 64 for Elementary; see p. 51 for Secondary). Based on the student’s grade level, there may be consequences for a student who does not show their Smart Tag for 5 consecutive days (5 days for Secondary). We encourage parents to visit our district website for more information on Smart Tags in the student handbook (https://www.lcisd.org/departments/).
For the safety of our students and staff, we want all bus riders to follow this rule and may enforce a “No Tag, No Ride” rule in the future. If your student has not received their ID badge, please contact your campus directly. We appreciate your understanding, and we look forward to working together in making sure all students arrive to school and get home safely every day.
Yours in safety,
Lamar CISD Transportation
