Hello SJE Families!

Welcome to April. It's almost unreal how fast the Spring semester is racing by, however we are soaking up every minute! Our students are working incredibly hard to solidify the concepts being taught daily and make the absolute most of this school year. I am so proud of our Suns. We want to thank you for joining us for our Color Run! It was such a fun day!

It has been a true joy to walk the halls and visit classrooms and see the excitement in our learner's eyes when they master skills or make connections. Our students truly Shine Bright each day!

We have a very busy April, so please be sure to read the newsletter for updates and be on the lookout for any email or text blasts you may receive this month! April is also a month filled with recognition of some of our amazing staff members that help us unlock our greatest potential. Happy Assistant Principal's week to the incredible Mrs. Buck and Mrs. Lambert! April 3rd is Paraprofessional Day and we will honor all our incredible paraprofessionals. And, April 4th is School Librarian Day where we will honor Mrs. Roop! We appreciate each of them and all that they do!

While we have so much more to accomplish this year, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support! We are so much better together and all that you do to work alongside us is appreciated! Should you have questions, concerns, or suggestions, please let us know!

Kid Chat

As we continue to prioritize the safety and well-being of our students, faculty, and staff, I would like to take a moment to remind everyone about the importance of maintaining a safe and secure environment within our school community.

Creating a safe and supportive learning environment is a shared responsibility that involves the collaboration of students, parents, teachers, and staff. We encourage an open line of communication to ensure that everyone feels comfortable reporting any concerns they may have regarding the safety of our school community. If you witness or become aware of any potentially unsafe situations, activities, or behaviors, please do not hesitate to report them immediately. Your input is crucial in helping us address and resolve issues promptly. We take all concerns seriously and treat them with the utmost confidentiality.

To report any safety concerns or incidents, please use the following channels:

Speak directly to a teacher or staff member: If you feel comfortable doing so, approach a teacher, staff member, or administrator in person to share your concerns.

Submit an anonymous report: We understand that some individuals may prefer to remain anonymous when reporting concerns. You can use our confidential reporting system, Anonymous Alerts, to submit your information without revealing your identity.

Contact Conroe ISD Police: 1-888-KID-CHAT

Contact our Campus Resources Officer: You can send an email to Officer Kimberly Kidwell at kkidwell@conroeisd.net if you would like to report concerns via email. Please be sure to include as much detail as possible.

Fire Lane

This is a reminder to please refrain from parking in the fire line at any time while at San Jacinto. We understand that parking in this zone allows quick access, however it does pose a safety hazard in the event emergency professionals are needed on campus. Thank you so much for your support!

Attendance

Our student's daily attendance is of significance to us at San Jacinto. When students are out, they miss valuable instruction that cannot be recovered. In an effort to partner with you, we now allow a one hour drop off window from 7:00 am-8:00 am to ensure all students are here on time to begin their day. We understand that when students are ill they need to remain home to recover. However, aside from illness, please ensure students are here each day before 8:00 am. Our Campus Improvement Plan attendance goal is 96%. On March 26-28th, we EXCEEDED our goal!!! Since April 19th is a student holiday, please consider using this day for any appointments or check ups needed. Please click the link below to learn more about the attendance protocol at SJE. We greatly appreciate your support!

Early Pick Up

Please remember if you would like to check students out of school, our cut off time to accommodate those requests is 2:30 pm. Let us know if you have any questions.

Car Rider Line

At San Jacinto Elementary, the safety and well being of all our students is a top priority. Please remember when you enter the property to drop off students or pick them up, the use of cell phones is prohibited. Also, please have students exit or enter cars on the side closest to the building where our staff members are located for support. If you are unable to have students exit or enter cars on the side closets to the building, we ask that you please park and walk students in the building or enter the building during dismissal to receive them. Lastly, if your students are unable to enter or exit the vehicle independently, you will be asked to park and walk them inside at the front office or pick them up from the front office at the end of the day. For safety, staff members are unable to physically place students in/out of cars. Thank you for your support and understanding.
