ALL GRHS STAFF AND STUDENTS MUST BE PROPERLY WEARING A MASK AT ALL TIMES IN THE BUILDING (EVEN IN THE CAFE - UNLESS EATING DURING LUNCH - AND STILL MUST BE SOCIALLY DISTANCED by sitting 4 per table). Students refusing to wear their mask will be sent home.
A Message From Heather Patterson, GRHS Principal
Happy Sunday Longhorns,
We made it to the end of the 4th six weeks and not an ice/snow storm on the horizon! #knockonwood I chose this quote above, because it could not ring more true as we continue to push forward in this Spring semester. Just like you/your student, we are TRYING OUR BEST to keep our BALANCE...and KEEP MOVING FORWARD....even when it's not the way we would have hoped or envisioned it would look like. We promise to keep MOVING!
A perfect example is last year after Spring Break our Class of 2020 Senior's world was rocked as they missed out on all the spring semester perks of their senior year...sports, programs, competitions, prom, awards ceremonies, and thankfully in the end we were able to have a graduation, with the many COVID safety protocols in place of course. No, it didn't LOOK exactly the way we had envisioned it, but it was making the best of a "uncontrollable" situation and I am so proud of the grace, thankfulness, and maturity that the Class of 2020 displayed through a tough time.
Fast forward to today...and the Class of 2021. Sure, we still have many of the same restrictions and protocols in place because COVID is not gone, but thankfully through the hard work of our district departments, athletics, and campus staff we have been able to provide F2F and virtual experiences throughout the year that the class of 2020 did not get to partake in. Sports, competitions, virtual ceremonies, homecoming week festivities, State send off celebrations, mini peps on Mainstreet, and now an actual prom opportunity, just to name a few. I am asking that the Class of 2021 show us the same grace, as I promise we are trying our very best to make lemonade out of lemons and it's all for you.
As we all know, with Covid still present, proms cannot look the same, but through lots of brainstorming and checking current CDC and county guidelines, the district has decided to press forward with an open air "Prom at the Park" opportunity for ALL LCISD SENIORS (and one guest). All LCISD high schools will be doing the SAME thing at the SAME venue (The George Ranch Historical Park). Sure, this will be a condensed version of what a typical prom looks like, but we are working hard to KEEP MOVING FORWARD regardless of the many COVID restrictions that we still have to BALANCE so that we can at least provide at opportunity for this Class of 2021 (if they choose) to have some semblance of one last iconic senior memory. This will be for Seniors (and one guest) ONLY prom (no juniors this year) since there will only be a limited number of tickets available (due to capacity guidelines), masks WILL be required, tables will be socially distanced, and sanitation stations will be set up as we continue to work hard to provide a healthy and safe prom opportunity, in a less than optimal COVID world. *Seniors, I will be sending you a separate email early this week with all the logistics, so please check your email.
The 5th six weeks starts TUESDAY, March 2nd! This is when the NEW learning modality changes would happen too. For all of you that are SWITCHING back to Face to Face or going Virtual....Tuesday, March 2nd is when the gradebook rolls over and new schedules are activated.
SAT for JUNIORS will be this Wednesday- See info below - and an email will be sent to juniors and parents to review logistics of how this will work! This is a regular school day for the rest of the campus (Sophomores/Freshman) and parking will be affected because we will have an additional 300 virtual students on site testing. Attention: Staff and F2F Students, if someone is parked in your spot on Wednesday, no worries, just park in the next available spot. This ONLY applies to Wednesday, as every other day you must be parked in the right spot in order to not be ticketed or towed.
TSA has 47 students advancing to state in 21 different events after the Regional Conference! Way to go Longhorns! Way to go Longhorns!
We recognized the BOYS and GIRLS Swim program with a mini pep down mainstreet as they got ready to head to state on Thursday! Boys Swim placed 20th overall at a tough 6A level this weekend, and broke a lot of personal GRHS records! Girls Swim will be swimming on Monday...lets get that hardware ladies! See results below! GRHS had 11 swimmers that qualified to the state finals and we are so proud of the entire team and the swim program's hard work and success!
Masks and social distancing protocols are STILL in place! Keep being smart and stay safe by adhering to the face to face expectations by properly wearing those masks, sanitizing regularly, and following social distancing protocols to the best of our ability. We can't completely control COVID, but we can definitely slow the spread down, and that is A LOT! Any student refusing to follow the rules will be given disciplinary consequences, which will in turn affect their semester exam exemptions. Let's all do our part to keep GR the PLACE to be... especially for those of us CHOOSING to be face to face.
Thank you so much to all our parents and students reaching out to your Assistant Principal for questions and assistance. Please CONTINUE to email your (or your student's) Assistant Principal , as they can assist you the quickest.

ATTENDANCE ASSISTANCE NEEDED FROM STUDENTS AND PARENTS!
Parents, if you know your student is not going to be at school when they are normally face-to-face, please email Ms. Hancock: dhancock@lcisd.org You must include an ID#, as well as, the date the student will be out. This must come from a parent/guardian ONLY for the day to be moved to virtual.
It is so much easier on teachers for a student to be marked virtual by the office. In addition to that, please have the student email each of their teachers so that they will know that they will need to check the student’s attendance on Canvas.
If the reason is connected to Covid in any way, please let us know that as well.
This year, with COVID protocols in place, we have a rare opportunity for students to be able to work virtually when uncontrollable circumstances happen, and not get marked absent (as long as they are COMPLETING THEIR WORK VIRTUALLY) however, we need for students and parents to work with us on keeping it all straight.
