Finally, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our school counselor, Cynthia Gumbert at cynthia_gumbert@lagovista.txed.net or the Middle School Counselor, April Woodburn at april_woodburn@lagovista.txed.net.

Lunch with Your Child
We are excited to welcome families back on campus! Beginning March 28th, families can sign up to have lunch with their child/children. In order to have lunch with your child, you must sign up in advance and fill out the background check. Just a reminder, you may bring lunch in for only your child/children. We ask that each family sign up only once per month so that all families have an opportunity to have lunch with their child.
A couple of things to note:
Upon arrival, you will sign in through the front office. You must present a current ID for the Raptor system, and complete a short health screening in order to receive a visitor’s pass. Lunchtime visits will occur at the designated parent table in the cafeteria. At the end of each visit, lunchtime visitors will return to the front office to check out and return their visitor's badge.
Families may sign up here
4th Grade Lunch - 10:45 - 11:15
5th Grade Lunch - 11:15 - 11:45
Cell Phones
Please remember that cell phones are not allowed during school hours. Phones must be turned off and in their backpacks. If your child needs to contact you, they may come to the front office to use the office phone.
If you need to communicate with your child during the day, you can call or email the office and we will deliver the message.
Don't Forget to Order Your Yearbook
High School PALS
This week our Lago Vista High School PALS stopped by to visit our campus and say hello to their PALees. It was a fun visit and great to see them on campus!
PALS stands for Peer Assistance in Leadership and Service. PALS promote service, community mindfulness, fosters a positive school environment, mentors younger students and develops leadership skills in their PALees.
Special thanks to Coach Katy Baugh and Cynthia Gumbert for sponsoring the PALS!
