Save the Date: First Annual Gala
Watch for more details coming soon for
Portico Education Foundation's
First Annual Gala and Silent Auction
which will be held on April 23.
Save the Date: Trivium Golf Tournament!
We have started our push for our 4th Annual Golf Tournament. I always get a lot of questions from parents about how they can help if they are not golfers. We are hoping to have 100 golfers again this year, but another great way to help us is to sponsor a hole. You can sponsor a hole if you are a family or a business. Your name or business will be proudly displayed on one of the tournament tee boxes at the tournament and we thank you on social media. This will also enable you to add any type of ad specialty item or sales brochure to be placed in all of the player bags that go out.

If you have any questions please feel free to email me at cynthia.zea@triviumacademytx.com.
Attendance Reminders
To report an absence please email a parent note or medical excuse for each absence to attendance@triviumacademytx.com. Include the student’s name, grade, and homeroom teacher.  You may attach doctor’s notes to the email or turn them in to the front office. After three parent notes, our school policy requires a medical note to excuse an absence.

Elementary (K-6th) Attendance is taken daily at 9:20am.

Secondary (7-11) Attendance is taken at the beginning of each class period. Official attendance for the day is taken at 9:30.

If your student is marked absent an auto generated email is sent to the parent if that option has been selected in the Parent Portal. These emails will always state that the absence is unexcused. Also, students who are quarantining due to COVID-19 will be marked absent by the homeroom teacher. The attendance office will later code the absence appropriately based on the documentation received.

As a public school, we must follow Texas Education Code (TEC) 25.092 which states that a student may not be given credit for a class unless the student is in attendance for at least 90% of the days the class is offered. That means a student may only be absent seven times in the fall semester and nine times in the spring semester to retain credit for the grade level. If your child has absences beyond those numbers, you may be asked to appear before the attendance committee. The attendance committee may give class credit to a student who is in attendance less than the number of days required because of extenuating circumstances.

We take the responsibility of educating our students seriously, and excessive absences can hinder a student’s progress and the school’s ability to provide for his/her educational needs. We do understand that children get ill, and we certainly understand when they are too sick to come to school. We appreciate your help in making sure your child is present for school at all other times.
