Please send your students rested ready to test in the morning each day.

All 2nd graders & PK-5th applicants will test.

El Mercado will be on October 9 this year celebrating Hispanic Heritage with students and teachers. Students will be able to purchase goods from the Mercado with their "Parker Pesos." (lemonade, candy, breads, cookies, quesadillas)

Backpack Buddy is back at Parker this school year!

Backpack Buddy is a program that helps alleviate child hunger by closing the weekend gap for hungry children. Every Friday, students participating in this program will receive a nutritious, children-friendly food sack to take home and be back to school on Monday, eager and ready to learn. Backpack Buddy welcomes elementary, middle, and high school schools to participate.

If you are interested in your child to participate in the program, please feel free to come see me for an application or you can email me at evelyn.olivares@houstonisd.org All students participants must have a signed permission slip.
