In October, our students participated in the Holiday Card competition for HISD. We want to highlight our student artist: Esmeralda Escalera for her incredible submission.

We would like to thank Mx. Carr, the parent and student volunteers and the Austin HS Garden club for their incredible work on Saturday, October 22. The school's gardens and green areas look amazing thanks to their hard work.

We also want to thank Ms. Mechler, the parents and students who worked at the Food Bank on October 22. We appreciate your work in making an impact on our community. Thank you!

Chrysalis students will receive Reading and Math homework to complete over the break. The homework will help students prepare for the December tests and also practice skills they have learned over the past two grading cycles.

We ask for parents support so students can work on these assignments and brought them completed after the break.

We want to thank our families and community for the overwhelming and incredible support with our annual Fall Festival. In spite of the weather, the event was a huge success. It was only possible thanks to our volunteers and teachers who were so committed to making the event an absolute success.
