I would like to thank all of the parents who brought baked goods to school for staff members to take home over the Thanksgiving holidays.  I know my treats were excellent and were completely consumed in a short period of time.  We have some great bakers in our Austin family.  Thanks again!!!

We have 2 big events coming in the next few days. The Polar Express will be coming this Friday to Austin Elementary School.  All grade levels will be participating as we celebrate the season.  Also next Tuesday, December 16th is Chick-fil-A night at the Belle Terra location.  We hope to see many parents and staff members in attendance. 

There will be an awards reception for all UIL Participants in the school cafeteria on Monday, December 15th at 8:00 a.m.  Parents are invited to attend.
