Slaughter Elementary will be participating in the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. If your child would like to donate $1 on Fridays, they can wear a hat to school. At the end of the year, we will donate all money raised to the American Cancer Society. Have your child give their dollar to their teacher. Thanks so much for your support!

New dismissal cards have gone home with all students. These dismissal cards include an assigned number for each student or family. These dismissal cards should replace the previous dismissal cards sent home in August of this year. Students will need to learn their assigned dismissal number. These numbers will be used as part of dismissal procedures at school each day starting Monday, Sept. 18. The parents who do not pick their children up from school (bus, walkaway, or daycare), should also have received a pick-up card with their child's name and number. All parents must keep up with these cards, because if our campus where to have to relocate for the day, we would move to the MISD Stadium. All parents would need to bring their dismissal card to the stadium to pick up their child. If you do not have a new dismissal card with your child's name and number, please reach out to your child's teacher so we can send one home with your child.
