Principal's Message
Dear Parents, Guardians, Students, and Friends
Welcome to the 2018-2019 school year! All of the staff are preparing for the beginning of another very successful year. We invite you to take part in all of our school events and remain informed keeping your most current home address, phone numbers and email address. This year we will begin using a new communication system that will allow us to send dialers, email, and text messages to keep you informed on what’s going on at our school. You can update your information at the beginning of the year by updating your information through our Aeries Parent Portal. We’ve included all the information you need and a guide to help get you started.
Our school day begins at 8:15 A.M. and our new dismissal times are at 3:00 P.M., except on Wednesdays when we will release at 2:00. I can’t wait to see all of our students as well as meet/greet each of your over the course of the year. We ask that you keep the following in mind as the school year begins.
When visiting our campus, you will be required to check-in in the office. The office staff will give you a visitor’s pass which you will be required to wear during your visit. Also, when you come to our school, you will need to use our intercom system at the front of the school before you are given access into our campus. Simply press the button on the intercom and be prepared to identify yourself, who you are here to see, and tell us who your student is. We do all of this in order to provide a safe place for your students to learn.
Children being picked up by parents after school should exit through the west gate (Center Street) of the school and wait at the gate for their vehicle to approach. Parents, please be patient and courteous when picking up your child as student safety is our main concern. Walking students will be exiting from the gate at the corner of Valeria and Center Streets and on Valeria and Mabel. Bus students will load near the bus area at the front of the school. We remind you that the front parking lot is not a pick-up/drop-off area. Student safety is our priority and cars traveling through the parking lot lead to unsafe conditions. Thank you for your cooperation.
This year breakfast will be served in the classrooms at Marks; students will report to the playground first thing in the morning. Once the bell rings breakfast will be served in their classroom.
Students will be receiving a packet of information during the first weeks of school. It is very important to review it with your child and return the signature page in the back of the handbook to let us know you have read it. Please use our online registration to update all information regarding your student. Attached you will find a guide on how to use our online system. We will also have computers available to update your information at Back to School Night and staff will be available to assist and answer any questions you may have.
We are hosting our annual Back-To-School-Night on Thursday, August 23, from 5:30 – 6:30. Please take this opportunity to meet your child’s teacher.
Again, welcome back. Class lists will be posted in the breezeway of the school on August 13th. I am looking forward to a fantastic school year.
Sincerely,
Manuel Cavazos

Mensaje del Director Cavazos
Estimados padres, tutores, estudiantes y amigos
¡Bienvenido al año escolar 2018-2019! Todo el personal se está preparando para el comienzo de otro año muy exitoso. Le invitamos a participar en todos nuestros eventos escolares y mantenerse informado actualizando su domicilio, números de teléfono y dirección de correo electrónico más reciente. Este año comenzaremos a utilizar un nuevo sistema de comunicación que nos permitirá enviar marcadores, correos electrónicos y mensajes de texto para mantenerlo informado sobre lo que sucede en nuestra escuela. Puede actualizar su información al comienzo del año a través de nuestro Portal para padres Aeries. Hemos incluido toda la información que necesita y una guía para ayudarlo a comenzar.
Nuestro día escolar comienza a las 8:15 a.m. y nuestra nueva hora de salida es a las 3:00 P.M., excepto los miércoles cuando saldremos a las 2:00. No puedo esperar para ver a todos nuestros estudiantes y saludar a cada uno de ustedes a lo largo del año. Le pedimos que tenga en cuenta lo siguiente.
Cuando visite nuestra escuela, se le pedirá que se registre en la oficina. El personal de la oficina le dará un pase de visitante que deberá usar durante su visita. Además, cuando venga a nuestra escuela, necesitará usar nuestro sistema de intercomunicación en el frente de la escuela antes de que le den acceso. Simplemente presione el botón en el intercomunicador, le pediremos que se identifique, y nos diga quién es su alumno. Hacemos todo esto con el fin de proporcionar un lugar seguro para que sus alumnos aprendan.
Los niños que los padres recogen después de la escuela deben salir por la puerta oeste (Center Street) de la escuela y esperar en la puerta para que su vehículo se acerque. Padres, sean pacientes y corteses al recoger a su hijo, ya que la seguridad de los estudiantes es nuestra principal preocupación. Los estudiantes que caminan saldrán de la puerta en la esquina de Valeria y Center Streets y en Valeria y Mabel. Los estudiantes de autobús cargarán cerca del área del autobús en el frente de la escuela. Le recordamos que el estacionamiento delantero no es un área para recoger o dejar a sus estudiantes. La seguridad de los estudiantes es nuestra prioridad y los autos que viajan a través del estacionamiento conducen condiciones inseguras. Gracias por su cooperación.
Este año, el desayuno se servirá en los salones de Marks; los estudiantes se reportarán al área de juegos a primera hora de la mañana. Una vez que suene la campana, se servirá el desayuno en el aula.
Los estudiantes recibirán un paquete de información durante las primeras semanas de clases. Es muy importante que lo revise con su hijo y devuelva la página de firma al final del manual para informarnos que lo ha leído. Utilice nuestro registro en línea para actualizar toda la información sobre su estudiante. Adjunto encontrará una guía sobre cómo usar nuestro sistema en línea. También tendremos computadoras disponibles para actualizar su información en la en la Noche de Regreso a Clases y el personal estará disponible para ayudar y responder cualquier pregunta que pueda tener.
Estamos organizando nuestra Noche de Regreso a Clases anual el jueves 23 de agosto de 5:30 a 6:30. Aproveche esta oportunidad para conocer al maestro de su hijo.
Bienvenido de nuevo. Las listas de clases se publicarán en el corredor de la escuela el 13 de agosto. Espero un fantástico año escolar.
Sinceramente,
Manuel Cavazos
Director
