The Roar
Reedy High School | Week of September 19, 2021
"Pride Perspective with Mr. Z"
Dear Reedy Lion Families,
I want to take a moment to make you aware of a disturbing new trend that is impacting Frisco ISD schools and campuses across the state and nation. A viral social media challenge circulating on TikTok promotes the idea of defacing, relocating and stealing school property. Examples of items being targeted are soap dispensers, mirrors, parts of toilets, exit signs, etc. The other part of the trend is to leave destruction behind in the affected space. This is happening at Reedy High School and is very serious.
The District will press charges and seek financial restitution when individuals participating in this destruction are identified. The District is actively reviewing camera footage taken outside of the locations where destruction of property has been found. Please take some time today to talk with your student about the seriousness of this issue and the severity of the consequences.
If you or your student have any information regarding these incidents, please contact RHS@friscoisd.org or submit a STOPit report. Together, we can make sure that our campus stays a safe and secure place for all students.
REMINDER: IPR2 (6 Week Mark of 1st 9 Weeks) ends on Friday-September 24th
Please continue monitoring HAC Home Access Center to see your student's current progress in their classes. Students and parents will receive an IPR2 update/notification of student progress on Friday - October 1st. At that time, for the 1st 9 Weeks only, students participating in extracurricular activities can LOSE eligibility for their IPR2 Grade (6 Week Mark), based on UIL guidelines. Please make sure your student(s) are mindful of the IPR2 - 6 Week mark of the 1st 9 Week Grading period. In addition, students participating in extracurricular activities can LOSE/GAIN eligibility at the end of the 1st 9 Weeks which ends on October 8th.
Roar Lions Roar!
