SENIOR PARKING-Tuesday Only Park in the Lexxus Red Parking Garage at the Winspear. You will receive a sticker at the senior entrance to exit the parking garage for free at the end of the day. They are hosting an event and need the silver garage for the day, so they are allowing us to park in the Red garage. Please be sure you get your sticker before leaving for the day.
Powerschool has been a little glitchy lately. Please let us know if you are having problems that are not resolved within a day or so.
FREE PSAT Testing is provided by DISD for all 10th graders and select 9th and 11th graders. More info below.
Pick up Procedure - When students know they will be leaving during the school day, ensure that SmartPass is open on your laptop. This is the most efficient way to get a message to or from the attendance office. This is especially important at lunch.

Did you know?
Students are more likely to be involved in class, be successful, and stay on track for graduation if they miss fewer than 10 school days.
Starting in kindergarten, too many absences can cause a student to fall behind in school.
By 6th grade, amount of absences is one of the three signs that a student may drop out of high school.
Missing 10%, or about 18 days, of the school year can drastically affect academic success.
It may also jeopardize promotion to the next grade level and receiving class credit.
Students can be chronically absent even if they only miss a day or two of school every few weeks.
