Happy Sunday PK-8 Coyotes!

We are glad you are here! We are heading into the last and most critical six weeks of this school year. Thank you for your continued involvement in your child's education. Our 3rd-8th grade coyotes continue with the next round of state testing this week. Our PK-2nd grade Coyote students begin their end of the year assessments to compare growth from the beginning of the year.

Social Studies STAAR 2023-2024

STAAR testing continues this week for our 8th grade students that will be taking Social Studies STAAR. Parents, the best way to help is by ensuring that your child is at school on time, in class everyday, & that they attend tutoring if they have been recommended by their teacher. Our students & teachers have been preparing extremely hard to ensure students show academic growth

In case you have any questions regarding your child's progress, don't hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher for more information.

2024-2025 New & Returning Student Registration Open for All PK-12 Grade Students

We are excited to announce that our student registration for all students for the 2024-2025 school year opens, April 1st. You can register your child online by visiting the district website or stop by this year's annual face to face registration being held, Saturday, April 20. Check out the link & flyer below for more information.

All returning students must register to ensure space for the 2024-2025 school year. Follow the link below to begin the registration process online. Prizes will be available for students and classrooms that register by April 20.

Student Attendance - When you miss a day, you miss alot.

We will continue to make daily contact with all families when a student is absent. As Texas law requires, a warning letter is sent to families when they have unexcused absences, are below 90% in attendance, or have extreme tardies. Please remember to submit your doctor's or parent note within 48 hours.

"Every child. Every day. Whatever it takes!"
