Announcements

 

Spring Break is next week from March 8-12.  It looks like the weather will be nice so hopefully you and your family can have some outdoor time.

Today is the last day of the 3rd nine weeks.  Teachers will finalize grades on the 15th and 16th. Check your child’s grades in the Parent Access portal.  We have one nine weeks to get all the final year grades up to an acceptable average.

 

KSAT was on the NEISD Webpage highlighting the parent of a current student who was in the first KSAT class in 1998.  Read the story  titled “ KSAT celebrates first second-generation student” at the link below.

KSAT Aerospace Teachers were highlighted for their efforts to continue providing opportunities for students to build rockets during these times of COVID.  See the story titled "KSAT teachers problem-solve just like students" at the link below.

The week we return from the break, we will have our KSAT Virtual Signing Night for current 5th grade/ incoming 6K students.  This event will be held on March 17th at 6:00 pm.  Those who have accepted seats will be notified with access information to this event.

 

This spring has been tough on everyone and I hope you and your family are able to get some rest so we can finish the year strong.
