Panther's - Texas ACE Afterschool
Parent Tid Bits - 9/4/2014
What is Texas ACE (Afterschool Centers on Education)?
At our Texas Empowerment ACE™ program, we are making significant strides in helping to provide the skills students will need to succeed in the classroom and make a difference in our community. Our program offers innovative activities that reinforces what they are learning during the school day and exposes students to a variety of learning methods through hands-on activities. This program is administered by TEA and funded by the 21st CCLC Program administered by the US Department of Education.

- There are still parent survey's and student applications that have not been turned in. A note will be sent home with your child tomorrow if this pertains to you. Please return these right away.
- I know everyone has been making adjustments and getting back into their routine. As a reminder afterschool ends at 6:00 PM. Beginning Monday, September 8, late notices will be sent to parents once there have been two late arrivals. Upon the second late arrival parents/guardians will receive a reminder of our policy and with the third late arrival there will be a $25 late fee.
