From the Principal:
A message to our outgoing 6th grade students...
I believe music speaks when words fail. And sometimes song lyrics can speak for what is in your heart.
May the good luck be with you down every road you roam.
And may sunshine and happiness surround you when you're far from home.
And may you grow to be proud, dignified and true.
And do unto others as you'd have done to you.
Be courageous and be brave.
And in my heart you'll always stay...
And as you fly away, I'll be hoping that Collins served you well.
For all the wisdom of a lifetime, no one can ever tell.
But whatever road you choose, We are right behind you win or lose!

It has been our honor and pleasure to have served you and your families these quick two years. It may be the next time I see you... you will be walking the stage at College Park's graduation. You will grow up and experience many things that will form you into the person you are meant to be. I wish you grace and peace in the journey. But in my heart you will be forever young and my amazing Collins Cobras.
With warm hugs,
Mrs. LeBlanc

STAAR Scores Update
Incoming 6th Grade Families
On June 11, 2024 Mrs. LeBlanc sent an email/text to families if your student was identified for required placement in 6th advanced math based on the 2024 5th math STAAR test score but had been in level math in 5th grade. This brief video explains the placement and the impact on math progression in junior high and high school.
These families have been asked to complete a required Google Form (after viewing brief video): https://forms.gle/Rpz3ZYeQrpv4vHHx7
Thank You,
Shelli LeBlanc, Collins Principal
Incoming 5th Grade Families
Placement in Advanced Math
Towards the middle of July Collins will send out email notification to parents if your child was placed in 5th grade advanced math for the 2024-2025 school year. Much like the video above a specific video will be prepared for 5th families to help understand math placement and the new state guidelines for math placement from 5th to 6th.
Thank You
