This week began with a well-earned holiday on Monday! We hope our Eagle families enjoyed the extended weekend and had the chance to rest and recharge.
Our 3rd–5th grade students also kicked off their STAAR testing this week. We are incredibly proud of the hard work, dedication, and perseverance our students have shown in preparing for these important assessments. Their commitment truly reflects the strong learning culture we strive to build each day.
We would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our Eagle families and community for your continued support. Your encouragement and partnership play a vital role in helping our students feel confident, prepared, and ready to succeed.

- April 15th - 5th Science STAAR

The purpose of the state STAAR assessment is to measure a student’s academic growth in reading, math, and/or science. It is important that students be in attendance and on time these days. Please arrange doctor’s appointments on a non-testing date. Your child should not bring their backpack, a blanket, stuffed animals, toys, etc. to campus on testing days.

- Gets a good night’s sleep.
- Eats a nutritious breakfast.
- Arrives at school by 7:40 AM.
- Brings glasses if he/she requires them.
- Takes any required medication (if applicable).
- Is relaxed and free from stress as much as possible.
- Wish your child a pleasant day and tell him/her that you know he/she will be successful by simply doing his/her best.

As we kick off the new school year, please take note of the following reminders to help keep our mornings and afternoons running safely and efficiently:
-
Breakfast: Breakfast closes at 7:40 a.m. This gives students a chance to get to class before the tardy bell rings.
-
Start Time: School begins promptly at 7:45 AM. Students must be in their classrooms by 7:45, not just arriving at the building.
-
Morning Drop-Off: Please do not park in the bus loading/unloading zone between 7:10 and 7:45 AM. Instead, park in a designated space or use the car rider drop-off line.
-
Car Rider Doors: The car rider doors will close at 7:45 AM. After that time, students will need to be walked in through the front office and will be marked tardy.
-
Early Student Check-Out and Transportation Changes: All early student check-outs and transportation changes must be made by 2:00 p.m.
-
Dismissal: Dismissal begins at 3:10 PM. All students must be picked up by 3:30 PM.
-
Lunch Visits: Families may begin having lunch with students starting the week of August 25, 2025.
Thank you for your help in making sure our students have a safe and successful start each day!

For the safety of all students and staff, please do not park or stop at the curb/fire lane in front of the school. This area must remain clear at all times for emergency vehicles and safe student drop-off and pick-up.
If you need to visit the office, please park in the designated parking lot at the front of the school. Parking or stopping at the curb may result in your vehicle being towed.
Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe!

When weather radar indicates rain at dismissal time, we will send out a Rainy Day Dismissal alert through ParentSquare. On these days, parents of walkers must join the car rider line to pick up their students for safety reasons.
If you're a parent of a walker and do not have a car rider sign, please stop by the front office to pick one up. Alternatively, if you’d prefer the sign sent home with your student, email Susan Evans at sbevans@lcisd.org to request one.
