BJH Families,
📰 February Parent Newsletter: https://app.smore.com/n/y4r75
Kindness Week will be a fun festive Kindness Week from February 9 -13, Valentine’s Day week! 🙂. Everyone is invited to participate. 💕🐵
Our PTA will be selling Sweet Grams for $1.00 to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Sweet Grams will be available to buy this whole week in the morning for Elementary and during lunch for Middle School. Cash or cash app only.
Our students are still STAAR Interim tests. Testing matters because it guides learning 📚 and shows student growth 🌱. Students do best when they have steady routines ⏰, helpful tools ✏️, and adults who encourage them every step of the way 💙.
🙏 Please help us prepare for testing days by ensuring children get a good night’s sleep 😴, eat a nutritious breakfast 🍳🥛, and feel encouraged to do their best 💪⭐.
🤝 Together, we can set our students up for success!
📊 We are asking you to take a survey to tell us about your experience with EPISD. To ensure we continue providing high-quality, rigorous learning experiences 🎓 that meet the needs of our learners and prepare them for college and career readiness 🚀, we need your input.
The survey will begin January 20 and close February 13.
Take your anonymous survey here: https://surveys.panoramaed.com/episd/family/surveys
🙏 Thank you in advance for your thoughtful responses. If you have any questions about the survey, please contact us at strategyevaluation@episd.org.
We have a new student ID system to support our campus safety 🏫. Elementary IDs stay in classrooms; middle school students must wear their IDs daily - replacements are $5 if lost. For more information, click on the link below.
