Happy Wednesday Thunderbirds!
BRRRR! It’s been a chilly week for sure, but we know that Spring is right around the corner. That means SPRING BREAK is almost here! There will be no school on March 18-22. We hope there is some fun in store for you!
Young Writers’ Workshop Success.
We had another successful YWW here at THES. Writers from our community shared their love of writing with our students. Many thanks to Erin Walter and Jo Ann Dalrymple for organizing the event and Dani Diepenbrock for hosting a welcome breakfast and thank-you lunch, and ALL of the amazing writers!
We are still trying to find someone to work with Dani as a Workshop Hospitality coordinator before the STEAM workshop in April. If anyone is interested in this fun role, please email volunteers@travisheightselementary.com.
Stay up-to-date.

Parent Survey Reminder
As we continue to strive for excellence in preparing students for academic success, we want parents to offer feedback by completing the AISD Parent Survey. Your opinions are important and help us to serve our students better! Over the next few weeks, we ask that you please complete the survey. The survey will take just a few minutes and you can fill it out online! You can also complete the paper survey at school; please contact our PSS Ms. Perez for a paper copy. Thank you for your feedback!
DON’T FORGET! REGISTER FOR NEXT YEAR!
Enrollment for the 2019-2020 school year is now open! We are asking all parents to register their students online at my.austinisd.org. It is crucial that we have 100% registration completed by the end of March as it will affect our staffing and funding. If you have trouble with the online registration process, please call the AISD Parent Technology Helpline at 512-414-9187 between 7am-5 pm, M-F. If you need access to a computer, we have laptops available for parents to use in the office. Please ask Ms. Gio or the PSS, Ms. Perez for help!
If you would like to opt out of paper fliers, please be sure to check the box on the front of our child’s Wednesday folder. Please help us reduce waste and save money!
