Homework Helpers @ FM9
Catch-up Café: A Lunchtime Opportunity
If a student has a “2” in Skyward for a course taught by a FM9 teacher, it indicates that an assignment is missing, but can still be submitted. While a late penalty may apply, teachers are still willing to accept the work. To help students complete these assignments, we are offering a space in the Vista, known as the “Catch-up Café,” where students can eat lunch and work on any missing assignments with a teacher present.
How It Works:
- STUDENT Responsibility: Students will email their teacher and parents, acknowledging the missing assignment and their plan to complete it.
- Completion: If the assignment isn’t finished during lunch, the student is still responsible for completing it outside of the lunch period.
- Notifications: Students will receive a note listing any missing assignments and inviting them to attend Homework Helpers in the “Catch-up Café.”
PARENT Involvement: Enable Skyward notifications is recommended (alert whenever your student is missing an assignment or has a grade below 70).

Ask An Expert: Video Series
In 2018, LISD launched Ask-an-Expert, a video series aimed at helping parents continue crucial conversations with their children at home. Throughout the year, our counselors share their expertise with you, touching on some of the most important issues our students face today. Videos can be accessed here: Ask an Expert Videos
Talk, listen, and keep the conversation going. #askLISD
Whole Child Series
The Lewisville ISD Counseling and Social Work Department is grateful to partner with you to support the social emotional needs of all LISD students. We believe education on these issues is key to helping our students become happy, successful people.
Please review the flyers in English or Spanish describing different social issues our students may face. If you have any areas that we may assist you or your student, please contact your student’s school counselor.
We appreciate the opportunity to work with your students.
