Clear Bag Policy
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.
Metal Detectors
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.
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!
P-TECH Pfuture Teacher Academy “Stick Together” as they “grow” their teaching skills.
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.
