Lunch Visitor Information
Families are able to dine in our Activity Room or outside (weather permitting), which will allow more space for our visitors to enjoy lunch with their child.
** We ask that families limit their visit to once per month for each student, so that all parents have an opportunity to visit for lunch.
**Please continue to limit the number of visitors to no more than three.
**A driver's license or government issued photo i.d. is required for adults each time they visit Galatas. Please allow time (about 5 minutes) to complete the required check-in at the front office prior to your child's lunchtime.
**Please understand that if you arrive more than 5 minutes after your student's scheduled lunchtime, there is a possibility you will not be able to eat with your child, due to the limited amount of time allotted for lunch.
**Please remember that family members may only eat with their child. We want to
ensure the safety and security of everyone as they enjoy time together. If a grandparent, family member, or adult other than the parent of the student wants to visit your child during lunch, the parent must send in written permission to the front office. The note will only need to be sent in once, and at that time a notation will be made in the visitor system so that the school will have a record of the permission being granted. If a note is not sent, we will call a parent to grant permission before the visitor is allowed to join a student for lunch.
Lunchtime is limited to 25 minutes. Once the lunch time has ended, you will drop your child at the cafeteria doors to return with their class to the next activity. Then you will head back to the front office where you will return your visitor sticker.
Kindergarten 11:30 AM-11:55 AM
1st Grade 11:05 AM-11:30 AM
2nd Grade 12:15 PM-12:40 PM
3rd Grade 12:25 PM-12:50 PM
4th Grade 11:55 AM-12:20 PM
Please be mindful that the next grade level parents are also excited to visit their children for lunch. We require parents to exit promptly at the designated time, to allow the next group to have lunch together.

CISD Board Approves 2022-2023 Calendar
We thank you in advance for planning all vacations and travel outside of the school calendar. When students are absent, they miss valuable instruction that takes place daily. In addition to the loss of that instructional time, Texas schools are rated not only on academic performance, but also on student attendance. Daily attendance plays a large role in our accountability rating from the state.
We appreciate your support in this matter, and look forward to a great school year!
School Zone Safety Tips
In addition, cell phone use in a school zone is prohibited. As you enter areas around schools, please end your calls and put your phone away.
The CISD Police and Montgomery County Sheriff's Department patrol our school zones to ensure everyone's safety, and will issue citations if necessary.
Thank you for your help in keeping our community safe!
