We train our staff and students in the Standard Response Protocols (SRP); Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, Shelter, and Hold. These five simple procedures give our staff and students the tools they need to properly initiate emergency response actions for any emergency that may occur on campus.

These SRPs are practiced regularly each school year at all campuses through drills. State law dictates that number of times each semester each drill has to be practiced.

Each week we will go over one of our SRP's that will be listed below along with a brief description of the protocol. For more information about each protocol, please visit: www.pfisd.net/srp

Activated when we must leave our current area and relocate to a safer area.

Evacuate is called when there is a need to move students from one location to another. The most common use of this action is a fire drill, in which students are evacuated to predetermined staging areas.

As part of our annual employee verification process, all staff are required to access their certifications in TEAL to ensure that all required certificates have not expired. If any certification required for your current position has expired, follow the instructions below to renew your certificate(s) no later than October 31, 2024.

A certification audit will be conducted, and staff who have not updated their required certificates

will be identified and may be subject to pay and employment implications.

Should you have any questions regarding this process, please contact Certification Specialist,

Keitra Johnson in Human Resources.

If your certification is expired, please view the following instructions:

As we begin athletic events, we kindly request your cooperation in adhering to the Clear Bag Policy implemented at The Pfield.

Please remember the following guidelines to comply with the Clear Bag Policy at the Pfield:

🟦 Clear Bags Only: Bags must be clear and not exceed 12 in. (by 6 in. by 12 in.) or be a clear one-gallon resealable plastic storage bag. This applies to all bags including diaper bags. One per person. Bags must be clear plastic, vinyl or PVC and have a maximum of one logo imprint not exceeding 4.5 in. tall x 3.4 in. wide.

🟦 Exceptions: The only non-clear bags permitted are small bags (with or without a strap) no larger than the size of a hand. Exceptions to the clear bag policy will be made for credentialed media and those with necessary medical items after proper inspection at designated areas.

Your cooperation with this policy is greatly appreciated, as it helps maintain the highest level of safety for everyone involved in this joyous celebration.

Pflugerville Independent School District is committed to ensuring a safe environment by protecting the health, safety, and welfare of all students, staff, and visitors of The Pfield Stadium. In addition to clear bags, The Pfield will also have metal detectors at all entrances to the stadium. The presence of metal detectors provides the community, parents, and staff with a sense of security when they know everyone in the facility has been screened. Providing a safe environment allows spectators to enjoy the game and feel safe.

Anyone who does not consent to a metal detection screening may be denied admittance. The process for spectators is below:

• Spectators who seek admission into the facility must first proceed to the metal detector screening area.

• Stadium Staff will instruct spectators on how to enter the metal detectors and guide them through the entrance. Spectators will be instructed to empty the metal contents of their pockets and carry them through the metal detector above their head.

• If the metal detector alarm sounds while being screened in any areas besides the “above the head” signal, the spectator will have the opportunity to empty the contents of the area in question and the spectator will be wand-screened. The hand-held scanning device should be passed along the front, back, and both sides of the person being scanned without touching the body.

• If the hand-held scanning device also activates, the law enforcement official or principal or designee will ask the spectator once again to produce the signal-triggering metal object.

• Any illegal objects (i.e., firearms, knives, or other implements which can be used as weapons) found during the search will be turned over to law enforcement officials.

• Spectators who refuse cooperation will be denied access into the facility.

The metal detector checks shall be neutral and non-discriminatory. No person shall be selected to be searched based solely upon his/her gender, race, ethnicity, religion, disability, physical appearance, manner of dress, or association with any particular group of persons.

Please be aware of upcoming road closures that may affect travel in our district.

For a complete list of planned, ongoing, and future road projects in the City, visit the updated roads website below!

If you have any questions regarding these road projects or closures, please contact Public Works at 512-990-6400.

Thank you for staying informed and helping us keep our PfISD community moving smoothly!

The Pflugerville Independent School District (PfISD) has launched an inclusive and forward-thinking Strategic Planning initiative by creating a Task Force aimed at shaping the future of education within the district. This Visioning Task Force will bring together a diverse group of stakeholders, including parents, community members, business leaders, administrators, teachers, Board members, and students, all of whom will collaborate to ensure a well-rounded and community-focused vision for PfISD. The initiative centers on a comprehensive visioning process that will result in key findings regarding the delivery and support of instruction, actionable directions for achieving these goals, and a well-defined Profile of a Learner in PfISD.

To ensure the success of this visioning process, the Task Force will meet at 6 p.m. on the dates listed below.

It is crucial that all members of the committee attend each meeting, as their participation and input will be essential in shaping the outcomes. The feedback and guidance provided during these sessions will serve as the foundation for the district’s strategies and priorities in the coming years, ensuring that the educational needs of all students are met with excellence and innovation.

In anticipation of PSAT Day on October 9th, PfISD Advanced Academics will host a one-day, PSAT Test Prep workshop for students taking the PSAT. This includes all 10th & 11th-grade students, as well as, any 9th-grade students who are currently enrolled in Algebra 2 or higher.

It will be held at Pflugerville High School (1301 W Pecan St, Pflugerville, TX 78660) on Saturday, September 28, 2024 from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM.

The PSAT, or Preliminary SAT, serves as a vital stepping stone for high school students preparing for college admissions. It not only provides a glimpse into the SAT format and content but also helps identify areas for improvement in academic skills. Attending an in-person test-prep session can significantly enhance a student's performance by offering targeted practice, valuable test-taking strategies, and familiarity with the exam structure.

This session will:

• foster a supportive learning environment

• enable students to build confidence and reduce test anxiety

• set students up for exam success

COST: Typically, $25 to $100 per session, but this event will be FREE to current PfISD students who register & complete the full-day session.

REGISTRATION: On completion of this form, participants will receive a PSAT Prep Registration Confirmation in their student Gmail with further details regarding the event including day-of-the-event directions.

Please note: PSAT Prep Workshop seats are limited. So, the sooner you register, the more likely you are to get a seat.

The Fine Arts Department is collaborating with the City of Pflugerville to repurpose cast iron water meter lids into beautiful works of art.

Students from each of our four high schools finished their designs last spring and the lids recently found a permanent home in the courtyard of the Pflugerville Public library.

Please stop by the library and enjoy the first four (of many!) of these fantastic creations!

For the first week of school, the Weiss P-TECH Pfuture Teacher Academy classes used the Texas Association of Future Educator’s (TAFE) organization theme for this year 'Roundin Up Future Educators' or as the students say, 'Pfuture Educators', to create a variety of cacti to represent themselves.

Each student started with a Kawaii Cactus to represent themselves. They were then grouped to form a 'Cacti Patch' on the bulletin board because 'In This Class We Stick Together.' They then created a 3D potted cactus about themselves that included their individual and class goals. The 3D cacti now line the window sill in the classroom to represent all four P-TECH grade cohorts.

PfISD offers two Pathways to Technology Early College High School (P-TECH) academies in which students may earn an Associates degree in either teaching or cybersecurity, at no cost just weeks before high school graduation. P-TECH academies are transfer eligible programs, and transportation is provided.

We invite you to be a part of the district's next Strategic Plan by participating in Dr. Shepherd's 100-Day Listening and Learning Tour.

Dr. Shepherd is excited to begin his role as Superintendent with a 100-day plan called "Discovering Pflugerville." He will focus on engaging with the community through a listening tour, gathering insights to shape our district’s future, and fostering a transparent and inclusive administration. Dr. Shepherd is eager to hear from you about what’s working well and where we can improve—your feedback is essential to our shared success.

This is your chance to share your insights, ideas, and feedback to help guide the direction of our schools and community. Your voice matters in shaping the future of our district!

Felipe Castro of Hendrickson HS (via: Anon)
Coach Castro makes connections with students for a lifetime, not just while they are on his roster. He mentors students beyond the classroom. When a parent sends him an email, he finds time to respond with a phone call. Our junior, who was in his Spanish class as a freshman. still goes to him for guidance and advice regularly. Two years later, she continues to come home sharing stories about what Coach Castro did that day and her face lights up telling stories using the nickname he gave her. He has helped her gain confidence and leadership and we are so thankful for his impact on her. He is a difference maker!

Connie Hirajakdellana of Wiess High School (via: Kawynia W.)
Connie is such a joy to work with. She needed my daughter’s immunization record and unfortunately what she was sent from the previous school district was blank.

She’s caring, thoughtful, patient, funny, and willing to help! I hope she can get recognition for her incredible work! Thank you for hiring great people!

We are a few weeks into the new school year, and I would like to take this time to commend Ms. Armstrong. She is new to our school, but not new to education. I emailed Ms. Armstrong to let her know a few things about my son. My son was a bit leery to return to EDP this school year, however Ms. Armstrong has made an inviting, fun environment. She embraced my email, and we discussed how she can make his time fun and enjoyable. Thank you, Ms. Armstrong, for caring and taking the extra steps for all our children at EDP.

Jeff Hughes of Riojas (via: Scott and Melissa L)
Coach Hughes works so hard for these kids. He hosts clubs almost every day before and after school. He gives students an opportunity to find their passion and skill set. He also encourages students when he finds a certain talent and mindfully reinforces expected behavior when needed. Our family is immensely thankful for his dedication!

Emma Payne of Front Office @ Pflugerville High School (via: Lacey A.)
Whenever I’m visiting PHS, Ms. Payne is always kind and welcoming. Although she is multitasking, she still takes the time to greet everyone and be attentive to everyone’s needs. It’s always a pleasure to see her. Thank you Ms. Payne for all you do!

Sheri Permenter of Math Department @ Pflugerville High School (via: Lacey A.)

Priscella Escobedo of Rowe Lane Elementary (via: Kyle T.)
Our son attends Ms. Priscella's class and absolutely loves it! This is his first year at Rowe Lane and he is incredibly happy. He is always excited and looking forward to morning drop off and he doesn't rush to get picked up in the afternoon. Enzo has the nicest things to say about the class and all of the teacher's assistants as well. The entire team is so caring, friendly, and helpful. We couldn't be happier! Thank you so much to Ms. Priscella and her team!

Everalyn Phan of Dessau Elementary (via: Samantha L.)
Mrs. Phan has been absolutely amazing to my daughter and shown just how much effort and care she puts into each child! My daughter constantly talks about how wonderful her day has been and that she can’t wait to see her teacher again! Thank you so much Mrs. Phan for making her first year of school so special!

Samantha Mapp of Dessau Elementary (via: Anon )
Ms. Mapp is so dedicated to her students that even though she wasn't feeling her best, she masked up and came to teach and prepare her class for their testing next week. That is what you call putting the we before me. It is amazing to see.

Mrs. Sanchez is amazing! Always willing to help whenever my son needs her, she is responsive even out of school hours. She is supportive, sweet, incredibly dedicated, we see so blessed to have her!

Cheryl Peterson of Murchison Elementary (via: Jessica G)
It is just a joy for our daughter to have Mrs Peterson! There have been some staffing shifts that created a lot more work for her, but she has adapted with grace and beauty. Each day my daughter has a great story to tell about adventures in the classroom and that is due to the exciting learning environment created by Mrs Peterson. We are so grateful to have her. Thank you for all you do to continue to make learning fun!

Ms Rivera of Spring Hill elementary (via: Anon )
This teacher is so very loved by her students. She teaches 4th grade, yet makes connections with all students. Everyday my son feels seen when she says good morning to him now that he’s in 3rd grade, but he met her last year in 2nd. He cannot wait to be her student next year.

Kadence of KellyLane middle school (via: Kadence)
