Library
All library books are now due! We still have 176 library books missing, which is a huge improvement from last weeks’ 344 missing books. Thank you so much for your help getting them back!
If your students have any lost or overdue books they will lose time from field day at the end of the year, so please help them look for their books and remind your students to turn them in asap.
Mrs. Fox will continue to send out overdue notices as the year concludes. If your student(s) thinks they may have returned a book, but still received an overdue notice please have them come to the library and check the shelves.
Our Library is an incredible resource and our kids LOVE coming in.
Checkout the video to learn more about our incredible library!

Notes from the Nurse
- Immunization letters are going out to students to take home to parents. Calls will be made from Administration as a reminder to parents. FYI Parents: Our records will transfer to the School your child will be attending next year. If it is not updated while in attendance this year, you will have to take an updated record to the High School your child will be attending before they release a class schedule for the coming school year.
- UHS Immunization Bus will be at Hobby 5/30/2024 from 9am-12pm. Please complete the packet and return it to the school clinic as soon as possible to assure an appointment time. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out at 210-397-6309 or Purificacion.Montes@nisd.net. Thank you for all you do in keeping up with your child’s well being.
