Dear Families,
This week we are celebrating National School Counselor's Week from February 1- February 5. If your student would like to send a quick "Thank You" to our wonderful counselors, those can be sent to Tracey Christian (5th grade Counselor) tmchristian@forneyisd.net, or to Linda Black (6th grade Counselor) llblack@forneyisd.net. As you will see in the picture below, our Learning Stairs are already decorated to celebrate our School Counselors!
As a reminder, please note that live conferences and streaming will be disabled on Tuesday 2/2 from 7 a.m.- 1 p.m. due to district testing.
Please check out the links and dates below for helpful information and campus dates.
We hope that everyone has an inspiring week of learning!
Courtney Rodriguez,
Principal
