PACK Guardians and Students,
This is the last week before Thanksgiving break. Student progress grades will go in on Friday and be finalized. Their report card grades will be finalized the Friday before Christmas break. Please get on your parent portal account and have notifications turned on for your child's grades/attendance! Here are a few remindesr:
Basketball games - Students MUST have their guardian with them and present to attend our basketball games at Hubbard. An adult cannot get 5-10 different students in at the same time as we are cracking down on student behavior and need THEIR guardian present to assist us with any issues.
AVID - Attention students and guardians, the AVID application window opens TODAY through November 22nd. If you are interested in becoming one of our AVID students and learning all the skills necessary to be prepared for life after high school, then make sure you apply online with this application link for Hubbard Middle School or Tyler Legacy High School if your student is a current 8th grader.
ONLINE APPLICATION WINDOW: November 1 through November 22, 2024
STUDENT INTERVIEW WINDOW: January 7 through January 21, 2025
-------------------------------------------------------------REPEATS--------------------------------------------------------------------
Leaving Early - If you are picking your child up early from school please do so by 3:15 p.m. We do not allow students to be checked out after 3:15 p.m. since this could hamper our dismissal procedures and ability to retrieve multiple students before the bell. The front office is closed between 3:15 and 3:45 p.m.
