If so, High School Virtual Summer School can be a great way to earn those credits back. If you are in this situation, reach out to your counselor and they can approve you taking some of the courses you are deficient in. Registration for summer school ends this Friday, May 31st. Please remember that counselors are on summer hours and will not be available on Friday, so connect with them on Wednesday or Thursday.
Thanks
Summer School
Estudiantes y padres,
¿Usted o su estudiante no obtuvieron todos los créditos de este año escolar o de años anteriores debido a que no tuvieron éxito en una clase o clases? Si es así, la Escuela Virtual de Verano de la Escuela Secundaria puede ser una excelente manera de recuperar esos créditos. Si se encuentra en esta situación, comuníquese con su consejero y él podrá aprobar que tome algunos de los cursos en los que tiene deficiencias. La inscripción para la escuela de verano finaliza este viernes 31 de mayo. Recuerde que los consejeros trabajan en horario de verano y no estarán disponibles los viernes, así que conéctese con ellos los miércoles o jueves.

STUDENT CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE
Parents did you know that you can save time and stay in your car when you follow our "SPEEDY STUDENT CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE" in advanced?
Whenever you know your student has to leave school early for an appointment, please write a note with your student’s name, and the time they will need to leave that day.
- The student will bring the note to the Student Services Office (in the cafeteria) first thing in the morning.
- The student will complete the sign-out procedure, and they will receive a "Permit to Leave" with the time they need to leave.
- Your child will show the pass to the teacher at that time, and he/she will be allowed to leave and meet you outside of the school.
- Student Services always need parental permission for a student to leave school unless it is the student's lunch hour.
- Please remind your student to always sign out and sign in at our Student Services office
Student Identification Badges
Per PISD school board policy FNCA (LOCAL), “Students in grades 6–12 shall wear an approved student identification (ID) card while on school grounds and while aboard District school buses or other District-provided transportation. Wearing student ID cards may be required at school-sponsored or school-related events as determined by the campus principal. Students may be excused from wearing ID cards during classes where doing so presents a hazard to student safety. While on school grounds, at other District facilities, or at school-sponsored or school-related events, students shall provide access to their ID card to any staff member when requested.”
“Student ID cards shall be worn on a neck lanyard so that the front of the card (photo side) is visible over the outermost layer of clothing. No sticker, pin, or other item shall be affixed to the front of the ID card. Any neck lanyard provided to students by the District shall have a breakaway feature.”
