Thank you for being patient and supportive of our teachers during this closure as we made the shift into distance learning. We know that you have had to create new family schedules that involve balancing your own work schedule with your child(ren)'s schooling. Please let us know if you have any questions!

TxConnect is Now Ascender
ASCENDER has taken over with a few changes.
- The app for your cell phone no longer works. The company is working on creating another one.
- Until the app is created, you must go through the district website. www.lagovistaisd.net
- On the Main Page, go to Parent Connection, halfway down the page on the left.
- On new page, scroll down about halfway, look for Keeping Track of Grades. You will then click on the ASCENDER link.
- Log in like you normally did with TxConnect.
- If you have any questions or trouble, please call 512-267-8300 #2503.
