Dear Parents and Guardians,

Attached you will find a copy of the State of Texas 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 School Report Cards for Hoover Elementary. This report is required by the Texas Legislature and prepared by the Texas Education Agency. It is to be sent to the parent or guardian of every child enrolled in a Texas public school. The report provides information concerning student performance on the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®), College, Career, and Military Readiness, as well as information on student enrollment, class size averages, and financial expenditures. Due to judicial proceedings, the release of the 2024 School Report Card was significantly delayed. The information contained in the School Report Card is required by state law and much of the technical language used is defined and described in the enclosed “2024 School Report Card Definitions” and “2025 School Report Card Definitions.”The report for our school may or may not have all the information described because the information presented depends on whether the school is an elementary, middle, or high school. State law requires that the School Report Card display information about the state, the district, and the school. Where possible, the information must be reported by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status of the students and must include at least two years of results. The School Report Cards can be found online at TEA School Report Card. A more complete report about Hoover Elementary, the Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR), is available by contacting my office or can be accessed online at Texas Academic Report Cards. Please contact me if you have any questions concerning this report card. Thank you for your continued support of Hoover Elementary.

Sincerely,

Logan Enis

Principal

At-Home Discussion Questions Grades K-5 (Public)

Protect Young Eyes

Dear Parents, Grandparents, Guardians:

Your role is so important! Especially when it comes to teaching your children about the

responsible use of technology. It’s not easy, and so the Protect Young Eyes team wants to help.

Protect Young Eyes is a free website that explains the latest apps, devices, and digital trends.

3 quick steps you can take right now to stay informed:

● Text “PROTECT” to 66866 and receive our regular digital safety research via email.

● Read about why your ROUTER is so important (link here).

● Read about the best kid-friendly smartphones (link here).

You are the primary formator of your children. It’s our passion to help your family be healthy with technology!

Questions for Grades K-5:

1. Ask your child to finish this statement, “Technology is a blast…” (they should respond, “but be careful!”). Yes, we need to be careful, even with fun things.

2. Ask: Can you believe everything you see on a computer? How do you know if what you’re seeing is real or not?

3. *Ask: Have you ever seen anything scary, uncomfortable, or bad on a computer? Or on mommy's or daddy’s phone? If you ever did, what would you do? (They learned to do two things: PUT IT DOWN and TELL SOMEONE! Have them repeat these statements over and over until you’re comfortable that they know them.)

4. Ask: When you say, “tell someone,” can you give me an example of a “someone” you could talk to? (You, grandparents, babysitters, make sure your children know exactly who they can talk to about these sensitive topics.)

5. *Ask: What’s a tricky person? Have you ever had a tricky person try to talk to you on a computer or phone? What would you do if that happened? (Same steps: PUT IT DOWN and TELL SOMEONE!) Parents – a “tricky person” is the new “stranger danger” from our generation. “Tricky people” are those whom we might bump into online, who ask a bunch of “tricky” questions. Examples of “tricky” questions include:

a. When’s your birthday?

b. What’s your school like? Where is it?

c. Who’s your favorite teacher?

d. Where does your family live?

e. Can you keep a secret? (Remind your child that there are no good Internet secrets) 1

6. Say: We just want you to know that Mom and Dad [insert whatever role you have] want to keep you safe. No matter what, you can always talk to us about the computer or phone, ok?

7. [Grades 3-5 only] Ask: Have you ever witnessed someone being a bully? Maybe in real life? What about on technology – what would you do if someone was being mean to another kid in a game you were playing, on social media, or group text message?

*Note for adults: Parents, at Protect Young Eyes we highly recommend asking kids, “what would you do if you saw a scary, uncomfortable, or bad picture on a computer or phone?” or “have you run into a tricky person recently?” often - maybe once a every couple of months. Fear and shame love to whisper, “keep it a secret” to young people all the time. Crush that lying voice by speaking openly and frequently about how to use technology with virtue. Everything is better when we deal with it openly and honestly.

Here’s a post that might help: “10 Before 10” which can help with the conversation.

Preguntas para los grados K-5:

1. Pídale a su hijo que termine esta afirmación: "La tecnología es una maravilla ..."

(deben responder, "¡pero tengan cuidado!"). Sí, tenemos que tener cuidado, incluso

con cosas divertidas.

2. Pregunte: ¿Puedes creer todo lo que ves en una computadora? ¿Cómo sabes si lo

que estás viendo es real o no?

3. *Pregunte: ¿Alguna vez has visto algo aterrador, incómodo o malo en una

computadora? ¿O en el teléfono de mamá o papá? Si alguna vez lo hicieras, ¿qué

harías? (Aprendieron a hacer dos cosas: ¡PONERSE ABAJO y DÍGALOS A

ALGUIEN! Pídales que repitan estas declaraciones una y otra vez hasta que esté

seguro de que las conocen).

4. Pregunte: Cuando dices "díselo a alguien", ¿puedes darme un ejemplo de un

"alguien" con quien puedas hablar? (Usted, abuelos, niñeras, asegúrese de que sus

hijos sepan exactamente con quién pueden hablar sobre estos temas delicados).

5. *Pregunte: ¿Qué es una persona engañosa? ¿Alguna vez ha tenido una persona

engañosa tratando de hablar con usted en una computadora o teléfono? ¿Qué harías

si eso sucediera? (Siguen los mismos pasos: ¡PONTE HACIA ABAJO y DÉ A

ALGUIEN A ALGUIEN!) Padres: una "persona engañosa" es el nuevo "peligro

extraño" de nuestra generación. Las "personas engañosas " son aquellas con las que

podríamos encontrarnos en línea, que hacen un montón de preguntas " engañosa ".

Ejemplos de preguntas " engañosa " incluyen:

a. ¿Cuándo es tu cumpleaños?

b. ¿Cómo luce tu escuela? ¿Dónde está?

c. ¿Quién es tu profesor favorito?

d. ¿Dónde vive tu familia?

e. ¿Puede guardar un secreto? (Recuérdele a su hijo que no hay buenos secretos

de Internet)

6. Diga: Solo queremos que sepas que mamá y papá [inserta cualquier rol que tengas]

quieren mantenerte seguro. No importa qué, siempre puedes hablarnos sobre la

computadora o el teléfono, ¿sí?

7. [Solo para los grados 3-4] Pregunte: ¿Alguna vez has visto a alguien ser un

acosador? Tal vez en la vida real? ¿Qué pasaría con la tecnología? ¿Qué harías si

alguien fuera malo con otro niño en un juego al que jugabas, en las redes sociales o

en mensajes de texto de grupo?

*Nota para adultos: Padres, en Protect Young Eyes recomendamos encarecidamente

preguntar a los niños: “¿qué harías si vieras una imagen aterradora, incómoda o mala en

una computadora o teléfono?” O “¿te has encontrado con una persona engañosa

recientemente?” A menudo - tal vez una vez cada dos meses. El miedo y la vergüenza aman

susurrar, "mantenerlo en secreto" a los jóvenes todo el tiempo. ¡Todo es mejor cuando lo

tratamos de manera abierta y honesta!

Aquí hay una publicación que podría ayudar: "10 antes de 10", que puede ayudar con la

conversación.

New Friday Initiative: ZAP and NEAT Kids

zoom_out_map

ZAP (Zeros Aren't Permitted) and NEAT Kids (Never Ever Absent or Tardy)

We're making a change to our Friday schedule. Due to ongoing logistical issues with the club opt-in forms, we will no longer be offering clubs. We appreciate your understanding and are excited to introduce two new initiatives that will alternate weekly: ZAP and NEAT Kids Fridays.

These new programs are designed to recognize and reward students while providing them with dedicated time for academic success.

ZAP Fridays: Students who do not have any missing assignments will go to the Cafeteria or Gym for games during leadership.
NEAT Kids Fridays: Students with perfect attendance over the previous two weeks will go to the Cafeteria or Gym for games and activities during the leadership period.

Hoover Parents,

I want to take a moment to offer a few reminders about safety during drop-off and pick-up times.

• Cell Phone Use: Texas law prohibits the use of cell phones in a school zone unless the device is hands-free. The only exception is if your vehicle is completely stopped and in park.

• Following Police Directions: Texas law also requires all drivers to follow the instructions of a police officer. When an officer is directing traffic at the Sandy Beach exit, please wait until the officer signals for you to proceed—do not exit simply because you see an opening.

• Speed Limits: During posted school zone hours, please ensure your speed does not exceed 20 mph.

• Traffic Enforcement: Azle ISD police officers conduct traffic stops and issue citations just like any other Texas law enforcement agency.

Thank you for helping us keep our students, staff, and families safe!

Sincerely,

Officer Cannon
