Greetings!
A Message From Principal Fraley
Thank you to our students who arrive early or on time each day to school. However, we have a large number of students who are not arriving on time. Students should be at school no later than 8:50 AM daily. Classes start promptly at 8:55 AM. Starting Monday, November 7, 2011, students who are not in class by the time the 8:55 AM bell rings will receive a lunch detention. If a student is late for a justifiable reason, he or she must bring a note from his or her parent or guardian to have the tardy excused.
Students need every possible minute in class to master the content and to succeed. We need everyone to assist and support the success of the students and our school by arriving on time!
Thank you for your assistance and support.
News Bullets for the Week
- We know many of you have expressed your frustration since Parent Portal has not been in operation, but help is on the way! In November, DISD plans to roll out a new, easy-to-use program called GradeSpeed. It will give parents easy, online access to their student's grades. As soon as the program is released, we will be sending out the login process through all of our communication channels. Stay Tuned!
- If you did not order your student pictures that were taken this week, but will still like to, please contact Lifetouch at 972-669-9204. You will need to know your child's Student ID Number and Social Studies Teacher.
