Message from Mrs. Lewis
Dear Randle High School Families,
I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable spring break! As we return, we are entering the final stretch of the school year, and now is the time to refocus, stay engaged, and finish strong. The way we end the year is just as important as how we started it, and we are committed to supporting our students every step of the way.
Attendance Matters
Every school day counts. Missing just one day of instruction can put students behind and make it harder to stay on track with coursework. Regular attendance is critical for student success, and we ask for your support in ensuring your child is present and on time every day.
EOC Testing Begins in April
We are committed to preparing our students for their upcoming End-of-Course (EOC) exams. To support their success, we are offering:
- A fun and interactive EOC Night on Wednesday, March 19, from 6-8 PM for all families. More information can be found in the newsletter!
- Daily and Weekly tutorial sessions to provide targeted support. Information has been communicated to students and parents; please encourage your student to attend.
- Focused in-class instruction to reinforce key skills and concepts.
We encourage all students to take advantage of these resources to ensure they are fully prepared for their exams.
Campus Policies & Expectations
✅ Dress Code Expectations
Students must follow the campus dress code:
- Pajamas are not permitted.
- Shorts must be no shorter than mid-thigh, with at least a 3 to 4-inch inseam.
- Undershirts, spaghetti straps, crop tops, blouses, or clothing that exposes cleavage or the midriff when the arms are raised may not be worn.
Students in violation will be given the opportunity to correct their attire. If they are unable to do so, they will be placed in In-School Suspension (ISS) for the day.
✅ Electronic Device Policy
Cell phones are only permitted in the cafeteria during breakfast and lunch. At no time are headphones, AirPods, or any other listening devices allowed during the school day. Failure to follow this policy may result in disciplinary action.
✅ Closed Campus Policy
Randle High School is a closed campus, meaning students are not permitted to leave during the school day without proper authorization. This includes leaving for lunch—students who do so will receive a disciplinary consequence.
✅ Check Skyward
Grades and attendance are always available, and now is a great time to ensure your student is on track.
We appreciate your support in helping our students succeed and in reinforcing these expectations. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
Let’s keep up the momentum and finish the year strong!
Go Lions!
With Lion Pride,
Destiny Lewis
Principal
Dr. Thomas E. Randle High School

Lions Roar in the Calf Scramble at the HLSR!
Shoutout to Mia Petersen Landrum!
Mia proudly represented Randle FFA at the Houston Rodeo in the Calf Scramble—one of the toughest events out there! With only 15 calves for 30 competitors, the challenge was intense, but Mia battled through, caught her calf, got the halter on, and secured it in the square!
These calves weigh 600-800 lbs and aren’t used to human touch, making this no easy task. The entire stadium was on edge, cheering her on as she gave it everything she had!
Huge congratulations, Mia! We’re so proud of your grit and determination! #RandleFFA #HoustonRodeo #CalfScramble #DefendTheDen
Looking Ahead!

Parent Standards of Conduct
Lamar CISD welcomes parents and guardians to be engaged and involved in student academics and activities. Mutually respectful behavior at school campuses and in interactions with campus staff is essential for fostering a positive and productive school environment. Establishing clear parent/guardian standards of conduct sets expectations and creates a respectful and supportive atmosphere for everyone involved.
- Safety and Security: Parents/guardians must comply with safety and security protocols on campus, including sign-in procedures and visitor badges.
- Adherence to School Policies: Parents/guardians must familiarize themselves with school policies and follow them, including rules related to student drop-off and pick-up, dress code, and behavior expectations.
- Respectful Communication: Parents/guardians must communicate with school staff in a respectful and courteous manner. This includes using appropriate language, listening to staff members’ perspectives, and refraining from disrespectful or aggressive behavior.
- Appropriate Use of Technology: Parents/guardians are expected to use technology, such as email or messaging apps, responsibly when communicating with school staff.
- Appropriate Time and Place: Parents/guardians are expected to understand the appropriate times and locations for discussions with teachers or school staff. There may be designated parent-teacher conferences or specific office hours when staff can address concerns.
- Privacy and Confidentiality: Parents/guardians must respect the privacy and confidentiality of other students and families. Discussions about individual students must be conducted privately and not shared with others.
- Conflict Resolution: Parents/guardians are expected to engage in constructive conflict resolution if they have concerns or disagreements with school staff. This includes seeking appropriate channels for dispute resolution and avoiding confrontations on campus.
- Feedback and Suggestions: Parents/guardians should feel welcome to provide feedback and suggestions to the school administration but should do so in a constructive and respectful manner.
Prohibited Behaviors
In order to provide a peaceful and safe school environment, Lamar CISD prohibits the following behaviors by parents/guardians and visitors:
- Abusive, threatening, profane or harassing communication, either in person, by e-mail or text/voicemail/phone or other written or verbal communication
- Disruptive behavior that interferes or threatens to interfere with campus operations, including the effective operation of a classroom, an employee’s office or duty station, a campus lobby, or school grounds, including sporting events, parking lots and car-pickup
- Threatening to do bodily harm to a District employee, visitor, fellow parent/guardian or student
- Threatening to damage the property of a District employee, visitor, fellow parent/guardian or student
- Damaging or destruction of school property
Consequences
Depending upon the severity of the incident, parents/guardians or visitors may be removed from or otherwise banned from campus and participation in school-sponsored events under the criminal trespass laws.
In situations involving lesser infractions or where remediation is viable, a warning will be provided in writing prior to the filing of trespass and issuance of a formal ban. Should a parent/guardian or visitor fail to heed the direction issued in the warning, a ban or other restrictions designed to deter the conduct will follow.
No restriction, however, will prevent the parent/guardian from working collaboratively with the campus or district to meet the child’s educational needs, nor will a parent/guardian be excluded from a child’s IEP meeting.
Specific procedures for campus warning and ban decisions can be found in policy GKA (LEGAL) and GKA (LOCAL), as well as the Lamar CISD Student Handbook.
