Parents who pick up and drop off each day:

As we near the end of the year, I want to remind everyone how important it is not to block crossroads or driveways during drop off or dismissal.

We know traffic can get hectic, and we want to make sure we are never adding to that for anyone!

Hi LVES Families! May is Mental Health Awareness Month, so I wanted to share some great information, and let you know a little more about how I can help at school! Teaching about mental health lays the foundation for emotional resilience, healthy coping skills, and overall well-being. When we help kids understand and talk about their feelings, we are not just addressing problems--we are building protective skills that can help throughout their life! At school, I can support your child with individual or small group meetings, and I also teach guidance lessons for the whole class!

Here is some information about mental health, and how you can support your child's well-being.

If you would ever like for me to check in with your child, or if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!

• The tardy bell rings at 7:45. Instruction begins immediately at this time.
• Official attendance is taken each day at 9:25. If your child is not physically present at that time, they are counted absent.
• All attendance notes should be given to your child's teacher or emailed to Christine Harris at charris@lagovistaisd.net. Notes should be returned within 3 school days of the absence or appointment.
• Typically, the later in the school day you can schedule needed appointments, the better. You definitely want to avoid the 9:25 time frame if possible.

Have you had an issue with your students "MySchoolBucks - Autopay" not processing? There is a reason this is happening.

When setting up or updating the Autopay feature within your student's MySchoolBucks account, there is one thing to keep in mind. If the account is in a negative state, the Autopay will not start processing until the account is brought current and remains current for at least 24 hours.

You will need to make a one time payment either online (credit card or bank draft) or at the cafeteria registers (cash or check only) in order to bring the account current. Once the account is at or above $0.00 then the Autopay should begin processing.

Note: If an account is cleared this morning and is showing $0.00 as the balance but your student purchases a meal today during lunch, the account will go back into a negative state causing the Autopay to not work. Typically the AutoPay processes overnight, so once it tries to process tonight it will not since the account went back into a negative state. Be sure to clear it and add enough to get them through their day.

GoldStar Transit coordinates all student transportation for Lago Vista ISD. For questions or to arrange bus transportation for your student, please contact the Director of Transportation, at (512) 267-8300 x1508. For more information, please visit the Lago Vista ISD Transportation Services Page.
