Character Trait of the Month
Mark your calendars! Enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year opens at 8 a.m. Wednesday, April 1. To help prepare appropriate staffing, we strongly encourage all families of returning students to complete enrollment for next year before the end of the current school year.
Enrollment is an annual requirement and doesn't roll over from the previous school year, but for returning families, the process is an easy three-step completion. The process is handled through Home Access Center via a guardian’s account, which results in previous enrollment information being completed.
Enrolling your child as early as possible is one way you can help your campus and the district prepare for next school year. Please visit www.nisdtx.org/enroll to learn more!
Making plans for the summer? Northwest ISD has lots of opportunities for students throughout the summer months. From athletic and fine arts camps to enrichment opportunities and summer school, information for summer programs can easily be found at www.nisdtx.org/summer.

News from PTA
We are excited to share that PTA Memberships for this school year are now open!

Visitors at Lunch
In order for our students to learn the routines and procedures, our campus will be closed to lunch visitors until Aug. 25th. From Sept. 15-19, lunch visitors will be reserved for Grandparents only (There is a sign up genus for during this time). All other lunch visitors will be open to all visitors beginning August 25th.
We have limited space and the tables are set up outside the cafeteria in the hallway designated for lunch visitors. Only you and your child will be able eat at the parent/student tables. No friends allowed. Lunch guests will need to bring their own lunch.
All visitors will need to check in with the office using their valid driver's license or government issued ID.
When your child's lunch time is over, visitors will need to come directly to the office and check out. For safety and security reasons, parents cannot follow students to their classroom or the playground.
In order for all parents to have the opportunity to eat lunch with their child, we ask that you limit your lunch visits to 2 times per student per grading period.
There will be some dates that our campus will be closed for lunch visitors due to events or changes in schedules. These will be communicated through Parent Square and your child's teacher.
