IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS Dear IDEA Weslaco Families, We are excited for another wonderful school year upon us. This year, I would like to keep you up to date with assignments, fitness gram, and other important information being taught in PE for grades 3rd-5th. I have created grade level classes using the app Remind 101. The link to connect is as follows: www.remind.com/join/37349b There will be 3 grade levels to choose from. This is only for grades 3rd-5th since these are the grades that test over Fitness Gram, keep a PE journal, and carry the journal with them daily. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 956-373-4876 or Beatrice.Villarreal@ideapublicschools. org Thank you, Coach V.

Picture Day will be on Thursday, September 1st. Students are required to be in full uniform.

PRINCIPALS MESSAGE Thank you for ensuring that your child is at school and on time! We had several grade levels with 100% days this week. I would like to give a shout out to Mrs. Gutierrez kinder class for having 2 weeks of perfect attendance!! We know her students will learn many things. It is important that students are at school every day. When students are not at school, they miss out on instruction. Please have your child come to school every day. Picture day will be Sept 1, 2016. Students are expected to wear their school uniform for school pictures. We will be offering pictures at other times of the year where students will be able to dress in something other than the school uniform. The month of September is National Library Card sign up month. We encourage you to sign your child up for a library card at your local public library. Books that your child checks out at a public library are testable in our AR labs.
