T.J. Austin Families,
This week is STAAR Testing for Reading (April 16) and Science (April 18) for 3rd-5th grade students and the campus will be closed all week due to testing. Please note that parents and family members will not be able to have lunch with their children this week. Please ensure your child gets a good nights rest and arrive to campus on time. Additionally, our after-school tutorials for the school year have ended, and there will be no Choir Club this week on Tuesday (April 16) and Thursday (April 18). Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Important Notes:
- Students taking the STAAR tests will need to arrive on time on Tuesday and Thursday

Parent Reminders
- Car Tags- Please keep your car tag hanging and visible until your child is in the car.
- Please keep in mind, that we will not release students past 2:30 PM.
- Updated Contacts- Parents, please review your child's emergency contacts in the parent portal. If someone is not on the list, we cannot release students, even with their license provided. Please update all contact information!
- If a student is dropped off at 7:50 AM or later, you will need to sign in at the front office.
- For any changes in after-school transportation, please contact the office by 2:00 PM so that we have time to relay the message to the student and teacher.
- Label EVERYTHING! At the end of each 9-week period, all unclaimed items (jackets, clothing, shoes, etc.) will be donated. Please write your child's name on their clothing and items so that it can be identified more easily.
- Connect with your child's teacher by signing up for their teacher communication (Remind, Dojo, etc.)
