Our APE Valentine's parties are right around the corner, and we're excited to make it a memorable event for our students! To ensure everything runs smoothly, we're in need of volunteers to lend a hand. Below are a few ways that you can get involved. If you're available during any of these times, we'd greatly appreciate your help!

Please No Deliveries During the Day
Parents and parent organizations are welcome on all FBISD campuses. We value strong relationships and partnerships with our parents, but we ask that you keep campus visits to a minimum.
Please do not bring forgotten items such as homework, water bottles or jackets during the school day.
Send snacks and lunch to school with students in the morning.
Birthday Treats - We Kindly Request Cookies
Although you may send cupcakes to school, we respectfully ask that you send store-bought cookies and napkins or small paper plates. No nuts please, due to allergies.
Cookies or cupcakes must be store-bought. A parent or guardian must bring the cookies into the building and complete the cookie log, which is submitted to FBISD’s Child Nutrition office.
Prior to sending any treats, please contact your child’s teacher.
***Goodie bags, drinks, etc. will not be accepted.***
No Nuts Please
Because we have students at APE with life threatening food allergies to peanuts and nuts, we do NOT allow peanut or nut products in the classrooms. Please check the ingredients on the snack to make sure that peanuts or nuts are not in the snack. Be aware that many products have cross contamination with nuts because they share machinery that produces nut products. Your child can eat these products in the cafeteria during their lunch period.
When It Rains
If it is lightly raining, students will be released at 3:25 p.m. If there is heavy rain, thunder and/or lightning, we will not release students until it is safe to do so. Please do not congregate at the exterior doors.
Late Pick-Ups
School hours are 8:05 a.m. - 3:25 p.m. After school dismissal is usually over by 3:45 p.m. If you are late, park and come into the building to sign out your child(ren).
Dismissal Changes
Please send dismissal change requests to the attendance clerk at
carrie.sharp@fortbendisd.gov before 2:00 p.m. There will be no exceptions. We will not release your child(ren) after 3:00 p.m. due to our dismissal process.
***Students will not be sent to a cone if the person picking them up does not have a tag.***
Display your child's car rider tag in your windshield during dismissal. If the assigned car rider tag is not displayed, you will be asked to park and report to the front office with a valid ID. You may request extra car rider tags at the front office.
All students are assigned a car rider number even if they never use the car rider line at dismissal.
