A Note from Mrs. Williams
It's been great to have our students back this week after the weather break last week. We also loved celebrating our students at our Friday morning assembly today! Be sure to check out our socials to see the pictures. Picture day was great, and it was so much fun seeing our 100 year old students today, who are 100 days smarter! Can you believe it has already been 100 school days?!
As you know we have many events coming up, so be sure to check out the graphics below to stay up to date.
NISD also launched our Parent Survey this week. We want to hear from you! If you have celebrations about Schluter or any part of NISD, please share them! If you have feedback, please share it as well! Your feedback helps us here at Schluter and all of NISD grow and improve. Scroll down to the NISD news towards the bottom to see more information and the links. Here is the link for your convenience.
Have a fantastic weekend!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Williams
Join us for food, showcased crafts/souvenirs, and entertainment as we take a trip around the world and discover the many different cultures and countries that represent our students, families, and faculty here at Schluter Elementary. We would like to have as many families as possible to sponsor a booth/table representing your family’s native country and/or cultural background. Your table can include food, items from your country, and/or an informative display. We would also love for you and your student(s) to wear clothing that represents your culture.

Schluter's Multicultural night on February 28, 5:30 - 7:00 PM.
February 20 Now a School Day
The district will await guidance from the Texas Education Agency if additional school days could be considered for a waiver before further changes. If TEA does not grant waivers for missed instructional time, Northwest ISD will inform families of additional changes to the 2022-2023 school year calendar in the coming weeks.
Show our Spurs the importance of reading by taking part in Northwest Reads! Elementary schools are welcoming guest readers across Northwest ISD on Friday, March 3, as part of the annual event. Participants will choose from a variety of books to read to pre-kindergarten through fifth-grade students at one of the district's 20 elementary schools. The program provides community members with an opportunity to inspire district students to become lifelong readers. To become a volunteer reader, visit www.nisdtx.org/northwestreads.

Reminder: Use MyShoolBucks for school meal accounts
Free or reduced-priced meals now require 2022-2023 application
For students who meet federal requirements, school meals may be provided free or at a reduced cost. To receive this benefit, a student's parent or guardian must fill out the free or reduced-cost meal application and be granted admission into the program. While students in the program receive the same benefits briefly at the start of the following school year, the application must be completed annually to continue receiving the program's benefits. For any student who received benefits from the free or reduced-priced meal program in 2021-2022 but has not yet applied and been granted its benefits for the current school year, regular costs are now in effect.
In order for benefits to continue, an application must be completed and returned and free or reduced-price meals will continue to be provided, if the student qualifies. The application can be completed at this link. Paper applications are also available at all Northwest ISD campuses. Please direct any questions to Yen Brown, free and reduced specialist, at 817-698-1091.
