A message from Principal Santos...

With the one-day week we had last week, we are very much looking forward to a normal week ahead! The 100th Day of school is this Tuesday, and we look forward to seeing what our Trailblazers hope to be at the wonderful age of 100. Also, the week of February 9th is Kindness Week. Please see the flyer for information about dress up days. 

This week is Counselor Appreciation week, and we want to recognize and appreciate our wonderful counselors, Ms. Marzell and Ms. Manongdo! They are always going above and beyond for our students, and we are so grateful for what they bring to our campus by showing up with their whole hearts each and every day. Please encourage your daughter to show their appreciation through homemade cards, words of affirmation, or a hug! We want them to feel celebrated this week because they contribute so much joy and support to make Solar a special place!

To remain enrolled, the student must complete the required subsequent doses in each vaccine series on schedule and as rapidly as is medically feasible and provide acceptable evidence of vaccination to the school. A school nurse or school administrator shall review the immunization status of a provisionally enrolled student every 30 days to ensure continued compliance in completing the required doses of vaccination. If, at the end of the 30-day period, a student has not received a subsequent dose of vaccine, the student is not in compliance and the school shall exclude the student from attendance until required dose is administered.

NOTE 3: 

Exemptions from immunization requirements may be granted on a medical basis or for reasons of conscience. A medical exemption, signed by a physician, is required annually if not otherwise stated by the physician. Exemption for reasons of conscience must be submitted on an affidavit provided by the Texas Department of State Health Services. Exemption for reason of conscience is granted for two years. 

Exemptions are not recognized in time of epidemics. Students will need to be immunized or not attend school if an epidemic is declared by 

the Commissioner of Health.

NOTE 4: 

To ensure the health and safety of all students, we ask that parents and guardians submit updated immunization records as soon as possible. Administration will be reaching out to families whose records are not up to date. Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and healthy learning environment for everyone.
