The 2007-08 school year is quickly coming to an end. We have been finalizing schedules for next year and preparing for summer school registration. Our Future Cougar Night was also held on May 8th.

Please be looking for your child’s final course verification sheet that will be sent home May 15th. The verification sheet should be checked for accuracy and then returned with a parent signature. Please note that no schedule changes are allowed after Friday, August 1st for students who will be in intermediate school next year and no changes will be allowed after Friday, June 13th for our future high school students.

This year, Summer School will be held at Krimmel Intermediate School. Krimmel is located at 7070 FM 2920. Registration begins May 30th at Strack and ends at 2:30 on June 9th.
