The Panther Periodical - November 13th, 2023
Dear Eastside Families,
As Thanksgiving Break approaches, we hope you're looking forward to a restful time with loved ones.
Please remember the importance of consistent attendance, as it directly contributes to academic success. If your child can't attend, follow proper absence reporting procedures. See below for the link on writing an excuse for absence.
Additionally, after we return from break, we will be preparing for the upcoming STAAR Testing week for re-testers. Testing week starts December 5th. You will receive more information after the break.
Together, we ensure our students are well-prepared and successful.
Enjoy the Thanksgiving break, and Paws up!
