Exemption forms will be handed out during B3 on Wednesday, December 11th. The forms must be turned in to their B3 class period with a parent or guardian signature in order to exempt any classes. Cards are due on Tuesday, December 17th. No cards will be accepted before or after Tuesday, December 17th. If students have to take a test at any time during a final exam day, they may leave after their exam.

• Students are not exempt from review days. All students must attend and stay in class on review days - December 16th and 17th.

• Students must maintain an 85 or above average in a class in order to be exempt. Weighted classes (Accelerated, Pre-AP, DC, AP, OnRamps) will not have points added to semester averages before finals.

• Students may not have more than 4 absences in any one period of the class they want to exempt (If the class is double blocked, they cannot have more than four absences for any one period to be eligible for an exemption.) A single U-U in a class eliminates the ability to exempt the class.

• Students with perfect attendance are granted an extra exemption that can be used in any class as long as they have a 70 average and they meet attendance requirements.

• Exemptions will be held until all school debts have been paid.

It's that time of year again...time to start planning for next year! The counselors will be visiting classrooms to review transcripts (rank and GPA) and present course selection information to each grade level. Students will select their classes for next year, as well as update their 4 year plan.

Here is the schedule of classroom visits:

Juniors: The week of November 5th during English 3.

Sophomores: The week of November 11th during US History.

Freshmen: The Week of December 9th during World History/AP Human Geography. Please note, freshmen will not receive their transcript during this visit. They will receive their first high school transcript in January.

Students do not have to submit their course requests until the first week in February. Providing the students with scheduling information now will give them plenty of time to think about their future plans, ask questions, and visit with teachers about programs.

A parent meeting will be held on January 27th. There will be an option to attend during the school day or in the evening (exact times TBD). Please mark your calendars!

Liberty FFA kindly donated food bags for any Patriot needing extra snacks/food. You do not have to qualify to receive a bag. Bags are free to anyone who requests one. Please have your student stop by the Health Clinic to pick up a weekend food bag if needed.

Voting is open through Friday, December 6, and you can vote once per hour at the City Bank Community Rewards website (https://www.city.bank/about/our-company/community-rewards/lubbock).

The Foundation works tirelessly to support innovative educators in our very own district, across all LCISD campuses, helping to foster learning environments that serve all students through grants, and offering opportunities for success beyond Lubbock-Cooper through hundreds of scholarships for graduating LCISD seniors. They've also brought in a number of inspirational speakers to visit with our students, and even step in to fill needs like annual flu shots for uninsured students who need them! To date, the Foundation has issued more than $1.5 million in the form of grants and scholarships to Lubbock-Cooper teachers and students.

With your votes, the Foundation can continue providing valuable resources across Lubbock-Cooper ISD. Thank you for helping the Lubbock-Cooper Education Foundation build the future, one student at a time - every vote counts!

Due to security concerns, no outside entity (DoorDash, Pizza delivery, Chick-fil-a delivery, etc.) will be allowed to drop off lunches for students. Parents/Guardians may bring lunch for their students. Lunch can be dropped off in the front office. Please be sure your student knows they are getting lunch so they can come pick it up in the office.

Parents are to report student absences including early outs/late arrivals in their Skyward Family Access via an attendance request. This can be done in the app or on a computer and should be completed 48 hours after the absence.

SKYWARD

When submitting an Early Out or Late Arrival absence request, please be sure to UNSELECT the ‘all day check mark’. This ensures the attendance office knows what time your child will be leaving and/or arriving. Campus attendance email is for submitting documentation, such as a doctor's note. If you have any questions, please contact Morgan Petty at mpetty@lcisd.net or call the front office.
