Kindergarten students built structures out of toothpicks and cranberries!

Parents and Guardians,


We are excited to announce the acquisition of School Messenger, a schoolwide mass communication system!!! Starting on Monday, you will receive automatic notification when your student is absent or tardy. We will also be able to send out communication when the school closes unexpectedly, important reminders, and upcoming events. We are VERY excited to be able to offer this!! Your student is bringing the flyer below home. Thank you for partnering with us in this effort to communicate more fluidly with each other.

Restorative Discipline Practices

Dr. Gaye Lang has launched a brand-new series, Restorative Practices Made Simple: Families as Partners, a video series dedicated to empowering parents with the tools needed for effective communication and Restorative Practices at home. This series is designed to align home environments with the restorative approaches taught in schools, ensuring a consistent and supportive experience for children. It focuses on providing parents with resources and strategies to foster better understanding and relationships with their children, emphasizing the importance of collaboration between families and educational institutions. Watch episode 6, where Dr. Lang hosts a discussion with Cindy Rodriguez and Jackie Trevino from Garland ISD. Cindy, a Behavior Program Specialist, and Jackie, a parent from Montclair Elementary, share their experiences and insights on implementing restorative strategies. Discover how these methods can transform disciplinary approaches, create a supportive community, and positively impact both students and parents. This session is a must-watch for parents and teachers eager to enhance their understanding and application of restorative practices.
