Beginning Monday, September 21st until Friday, September 25th, families will be able to select if they would like face-to-face instruction beginning October 19th or if they would like to continue with virtual learning. Selection will be under the forms section of the parent portal in PowerSchool. If families do not complete the selection before the deadline, students will be automatically be placed into in-person learning.

As a campus, we are creating plans for various scenarios - our students' and faculty's safety is our number one focus. The amount of students that select face-to-face instruction will determine if students are able to return full time or if we will have a hybrid schedule. If you would like to change your selection after the window closes, you will have this ability after the next grading cycle.

If you have not created your parent account using the access codes that were mailed home and need the information, please contact Maria Rodriguez at mrodri21@houstonisd.org.
