A message from Principal Santos ...
This Friday we had our Morning Mile, Coffee with the Principal, our March Madness Kickoff, Dollar Dress Day, Parents Night out and ended the weekend with a wonderful Sweetheart Dance! The link to more amazing pictures is below. Thank you to all who contributed to each event and who continue to support our efforts to create a culture that make our students excited to come to school! This week before spring break is jam-packed and we have so much to accomplish but we are excited to get it underway!
We still need a bit of help with Field Day to make sure our teachers are fed since they won't get their normal break on Friday. SIGN UP HERE
HAVE AN INCREDIBLE WEEK!
STAAR SIMULATIONS:
As we enter the season of testing, you will see that our 3-8th graders will begin taking STAAR simulations. The data collected from these assessments are for teachers to get an understanding of how to shift and modify their instruction. Remind your child that assessments can also serve as celebrations of learning - these are not meant to be evaluative in nature for our students, only for our own instructional practices. We are excited to celebrate one another this month! See calendar below.
TELPAS:
This is an assessment that evaluates English Language Proficiency for our English Language Learners.

At Solar Prep for Girls our uniform policy includes a very specific dress code. We believe that if a student is dressed for success they will feel confident which positively impacts academic performance. Our hope is that our uniform creates a sense of pride for our school and our school community. We appreciate your support in ensuring your student comes to school dressed appropriately and ready to engage in learning.
We will continue providing feedback to students out of dress code to ensure a safe and inclusive environment.
