Parents and students, please check your spam and email and sign all forms.

Parents and students have each received two emails. The emails came from “Jeff Mabray via

Docusign.” Please check your spam folder if you don’t see them. One will contain just the LISD

Drug Policy & Medical Release; the other will contain all the other forms.

• Please complete all fields, and submit. Once you and your student have completed all fields, you’ll both get an email confirmation telling you “Your Document Has Been Completed.”
• You will want to find 10 to 15 minutes of uninterrupted time where you can sit down and carefully and thoughtfully review each document and the complete ALL required fields and any optional fields that apply to you and your situation.
• Docusign helps you out by filling in some information as you type. For example, once you have entered your student’s name, it should auto-populate in other fields where it is required.

If your family did NOT receive the emails at all or you have questions about the forms, please

reach out to presidentelect@hebronband.org immediately and I will get back with you. Again, we only need one set of forms per student, not per parent/guardian. You do not need to create a docusign account or download their app to complete these forms.
