Frisco ISD has once again been honored with the Best Communities for Music Education designation from The NAMM Foundation for its outstanding commitment to music education. This is a tremendous honor that recognizes the work that our music educators do each and every day.

To qualify for the Best Communities designation, Frisco ISD answered detailed questions about funding, graduation requirements, music class participation, instruction time, facilities, support for the music program and community music-making programs.

Congratulations to all FISD music educators for a national recognition that is second to none.

A new state law will require students who do not receive a passing score on the STAAR to complete 30 hours of tutoring on prior-year knowledge & skills in each tested subject. This includes those who do not test, regardless of their performance in class.

If your student has lost his/her Chromebook charger, you can purchase a replacement through your Online School Fees account for $25. After purchasing the replacement, your student may pick it up in the front office.

The Texas Education Agency states in its Public Health Planning Guidance that school systems should restrict visits in schools to only those essential to school operations.

Lunch on campus is discouraged. However, if you wish to join your student for lunch, visits will be:

• by reservation only, and include one student and his/her parent/guardian (maximum of 2 parents)
• one reservation per lunch period (A, B, and C) per day.
• held at the designated lunch table in the foyer.

Reservations can be made one week at a time by accessing the Signup Genius link. A new link for the upcoming week will be available in the Cyclone Circular every Sunday.
