Parents, As you may know flu cases in Texas have been on the rise. Here are a few reminders in an effort to stay healthy:
- Please don't send your student to school if they have a fever of 100 or greater. They must be fever free for 24 hours without the use of ibuprofen of acetaminophen before they can return to school.
- If your student has vomiting or diarrhea, they must be symptom free for 24 hours before returning to school.
- Common flu symptoms are: fever, chills, fatigue, stomach ache and headache (especially in children) and sore throat.
- Handwashing and the flu vaccine are still the best prevention.
- If you or your student have any flu-like symptoms, please stay home.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me: 469-742-8307
Thank you,
Nurse Pierce
Attention 6th grade parents:
There are two vaccinations required by the State of Texas for entry into the 7th grade. They are a Tdap (tetanus, diptheria and pertussis) booster and the Meningococcal vaccine. These vaccines are typically given at the 11 or 12 year old well child visit. If your student receives these two vaccines, please send a copy of the vaccination record to school with your student or fax it to
469-742-8401
. Your help is greatly appreciated, as it will make your transition to 7th grade much easier.

Attendance Information
I often say that Sloan Creek is the bridge between the dependence of elementary school and the independence of the secondary school model. One area that we want to continue to shine a bright light on for parent understanding is the structure around secondary attendance procedures.
Starting at Sloan Creek and continuing through your child's years at Willow Springs and Lovejoy High School, attendance is recorded during each period of the day. There is often some misunderstanding regarding the difference between attendance accounting for State funding and attendance accounting for State truancy. For funding purposes, we report to the State how many students are in attendance at 10:00 a.m. each day. For your child's truancy accounting, we count attendance in days or parts of days. If your child comes in late or is checked out early and does not have a written excuse from a doctor/dentist/orthodontist, this will accrue toward the truancy reporting.
You will receive a letter requesting an attendance conference from our campus for the following two attendance situations:
- When students are absent more than three days or parts of days within any four-week period.
- When students accrue 10 or more *absences in any six-month period.
As a reminder, unexcused absences (coded with an "A" in Powerschool) means that the school does know the reason for the absence.
*We allow for students to have five parent notes/calls per semester without concern. We code these first five as "PN" (Parent Note) or "PC" (Parent Call). After the fifth PN/PC absence, parent notes and parent phone calls are coded "P5". When a student has ten P5 absences, you will get a letter from the school requesting an attendance conference.
Doctor's notes are excused absences and are coded "D" in power school and are excused absences. If you check your child out for a doctors appointment and bring them back the same day with a doctors note, we code this a "M" and is not considered an absence and does not count against perfect attendance. All other absences (PN/PC/P5/D) all count against a students perfect attendance record.
When your child is absent, we request that you e-mail or call Mrs. Lori Esser, our campus attendance clerk so that we have the most accurate coding of your child's absence. I have tasked her along with our campus teaching staff to account for each child's whereabouts for each period of the day. If you have a note from a doctor/dentist/orthodontist, you are welcome to e-mail the note or send it to school with your child upon their return.
We know that attendance can be a confusing subject. If you have any questions regarding how attendance is tracked, please feel free to contact our Ms. Esser, or Mrs. Underwood, or myself.
As always, you may monitor your student's attendance via the PowerSchool Parent Portal.
Ray Winkler.
Dear Parent:
Sloan Creek Intermediate School is sharing this information about the district and your child's campus with you as part of its obligations under the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB).
Federal Report Cards for the state, the district, and each of the district's campuses are now available on the district's website at this link: https://scis.lovejoyisd.net/ or are also available on the Texas Education Agency's website at: https://tea.texas.gov/Finance_and_Grants/Grants/Federal_Report_Card/.

Part IV: Teacher Quality Data
- Provides information on teacher quality in three parts.
Part
A - Percent of Teachers by Highest Degree Held - Professional qualifications of all public elementary and secondary teachers in the Texas.

Lice Awareness
We want to alert you that there has been one or more cases of head lice at SICS over the last few months. If there is a concern with your child, our school nurse will contact you directly. If you need additional information and resources, you may visit the CDC's website at the following link:
https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/lice/head/index.html
Moreover, you may review the District's procedures for head lice on page 42 of the 2017-2018 Student Handbook, which states, in relevant part:
"
If careful observation indicates a student has head lice, the school nurse will contact the student's parent to determine whether the child will need to be picked up from school, and to discuss a plan for treatment with FDA-approved medicated shampoo or cream rinse which may be purchased from any drug or grocery store. After the student has undergone one treatment, the parent should check in with the school nurse to discuss the treatment used. The nurse can also offer additional recommendations, including subsequent treatments and how to best get rid of lice and prevent their return."
Below is the link to the Handbook for your reference:
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions or concerns.
Tamara Pierce,
School Nurse
