Attendance Recovery
In order to meet the TEA attendance requirements (90% Rule)for the first semester, students cannot have more than 4 absences (excused or unexcused) for any class. If you have more than four absences, you will need to go to attendance recovery. We will be begin attendance recovery on November 4th. It will be every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM. Each attendance recovery session will help you regain one absence (one class period). Attendance Recovery will be in Mrs. Anguiano's room (142) or Ms. Snow's room (158). You must be on time and stay the entire time in order to receive the credit. Students are not able to bank hours ahead of time. Only students who are over the allowable amount of absences are permitted to stay in attendance recovery. Yo will be required to do school work or read a book. You may not use your cell phones. Chromebook smay only be used for school assignments.

Meet Ambra (Whitehurst) Hernandez--Class of 1996
BFA Texas State
MFA Texas woman’s University
I lived on the NE side of San Antonio near Judson HS. Health Careers gave me the foundation I needed to be successful no matter what career path I took instilling the value of traditions, community, learning and education.
Traditions like the Christmas tree and Hallway decorating contest where I’m pretty sure we used multiple roles of butcher paper. Endless opportunities to serve the community with food and blood drives to nursing home visits. Top notch education, if I was ever struggling with classes or life the entire staff was there to help guide me in the right direction.
For me, Health Careers may not have lead me to a career in the medical field, but it did instill in me the value of tradition, community, education, and being an open minded learner. These are the skills/values that I instill in my students as a NISD teacher for the past 20 years.

FLEX
Students, if you are needing to see another teacher during FLEX, you must obtain a pass from that teacher at least prior to lunch the day of the FLEX. You will take this pass to your assigned FLEX teacher to check in and get their permission before leaving. Teachers, if the student does not follow this process, please do not allow them to leave your FLEX.
Friendly Reminder--Lunch Deliveries
Due to allergies, COVID and other health concerns, we will not be allowing any outside food to be delivered to or brought to the campus. Students who have off campus lunch will not be allowed to bring any food back to the campus. Parents bringing a forgotten lunch for their own child may bring it in a lunch box/bag or a plain brown bag labeled with the student's name. Food and drink are not allowed in the classrooms.
