Principal's Message

4th Grade Parents,

Welcome to Sloan Creek!

We are so excited to welcome your child to Sloan Creek this fall!

Since we can't meet face to face at school yet, some of our 5th grade students and staff put together the video above in an effort to answer the most frequently asked questions about the transition from 4th to 5th grade.

The video is a little long, but we wanted to anticipate any questions you might have about next year! Our kids and staff had fun making this for you!

Live Q and A with Mr. Winkler and 5th Grade Students:

Monday, May 11th from 12:00 p.m to 1:00 p.m. Mr. Winkler and selected 5th grade students will hold a "live Zoom Q&A" for any parent or student who has a question about 5th grade. Click the link below on Monday to sign in:

Pre-Order 5th Grade Planners:

2020-2021 Student Planner order form. If you order now, they will be ready for you to pick up before school starts! These planners are a great tool to help keep your child organized and are completely customized for SCIS students.

I will keep you informed as we get closer to the start of school about events and details regarding 5th grade. We are excited to get to meet each of you and create an experience that is second to none for each child next year.

Please reach out to me if I can be of help!

With Gratitude,

Ray Winkler

Student and Parent Concerns/Grievances

The faculty and staff of Lovejoy ISD are committed to the service of our students and their parents by responding promptly and professionally to concerns or grievances which may arise.

Student and Parent Complaints/Grievances are governed by LISD Board Policies FNG (LEGAL) and FNG (LOCAL).

How Do You Resolve Parent Concerns?

If you, as the parent or guardian of a Lovejoy ISD student, have concerns regarding your child's education or performance, we want to talk with you. Sitting down and talking with the people who interact most often with your child on a daily basis - his/her teacher, counselor, coach or director- can remedy the majority of concerns.

Most concerns can be and usually are resolved at the classroom/activity/sports or campus level. However, if your concerns are not addressed by visiting with the teacher, campus counselor, coach or director, you may choose to follow the three-level process listed below:

Level One:

Within 15 business days of the incident causing the concern/complaint, you may request a meeting with the next level supervisor which could be the Athletic Director, Fine Arts Director or Campus Principal. The Level One form may be found here .

Level Two:

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the Level One process, within 10 business days of receipt of the Level One decision letter, you may request a meeting with the Assistant Superintendent of Operations (Athletics, Safety, Operations) or Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction (Teachers, Administrators, Student Discipline). The Level Two form may be found here .

Level Three:

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the Level Two process, within 10 business days of receipt of the Level Two decision letter, you may appeal the decision to the School Board by contacting the Superintendent. The Level Three form may be found here .
