Alert

In a growing school system, the district’s attendance zones will inevitably change to accommodate the growth. As a hypergrowth district, we are experiencing significant enrollment increases in some areas. As a result, some schools are over capacity while others have available capacity. The Board may consider leveling plans to balance student enrollment across campuses and alleviate overcrowding.   The district’s process is to collect feedback from community stakeholders regarding attendance boundary options. We specifically look to include parents from the potentially impacted campuses/areas. 

We appreciate everyone who provided input during the attendance boundary committee meetings and the leveling process.

The Lamar CISD Board of Trustees has approved new attendance zones that will impact Austin, Frost, Jackson, Long, Pink, Smith, and Travis Elementary Schools, which will go into effect for the 2024-2025 school year.

⤓ Board Approved Attendance Zones

En un sistema escolar en crecimiento, las zonas de asistencia del distrito cambiarán inevitablemente para adaptarse a este aumento. Como distrito de hipercrecimiento, estamos experimentando aumentos significativos de inscripciones en algunas zonas. Como resultado, algunas escuelas se encuentran por encima de su capacidad mientras que otras tienen capacidad disponible. La Mesa Directiva podría contemplar planes de nivelación para equilibrar las inscripciones de estudiantes en todos los campus y reducir la superpoblación.   El proceso del distrito consiste en recabar opiniones de las partes interesadas en la comunidad en relación a las opciones respecto a los límites de asistencia. Específicamente buscamos incluir a los padres de los campus/áreas que potencialmente se vean afectados. 

Agradecemos a todos los que dieron su opinión durante las reuniones del comité de límites de asistencia y el proceso de nivelación.

La Mesa Directiva de Lamar CISD ha aprobado nuevas zonas de asistencia que afectarán a las escuelas primarias Austin, Frost, Jackson, Long, Pink, Smith y Travis, que entrarán en vigor para el ciclo escolar 2024-2025.

Astronotes for April 2, 2014

Apr 02, 2014 | Bud Whileyman
This Friday we will be having our 3rd 9-weeks Success Assemblies.  Students will be recognized for their accomplishments during the 3rd 9-weeks.  This also means we are in the final grading period of the school year.  This year has been an exceptionally fast year.  It seems like we just started and we are now in the final phase.   



The make-up days for the 2 bad weather days that we used in February will be Thursday, April 17th (day before Good Friday) and May 26th (Memorial Day).  Every year the district has to designate 2 bad weather days on the calendar.  Most of the time we just ignore them because we never have to use them.  However, this year is the exception.  Having school on Memorial Day is probably the most controversial of the two days.  Unfortunately it was included in the approved school calendar.
 
Today is a STAAR Testing day and we will be observing rules for a “Closed Campus” meaning no visitors for lunch etc.  You may come in to the office if you need assistance.

Tomorrow, Thursday April 3, our First Graders will be taking a field trip to Dewberry Farms which is always a lot of fun and the students have a great time.
 
An important message from Traci Kujath, PTO President:
Just a reminder that all PTO Nomination forms are due this Friday!  If you are interested in a position on the board for the 2014-15 year, please submit your form by Friday!  We already have a few nominees, but the following positions do not have anyone running for office:
President, VP of Membership, Treasurer Elect, Co-Volunteer Coordinator, Yearbook Coordinator, Co-Yearbook Coordinator, and Co-Fundraiser chair.  We need people in these roles to help the PTO run effectively.  It only takes a little time and your children will benefit so much!  Let us know if you are willing to help.  Please call Traci Kujath with any questions (281) 239-3537.
