Brazoswood Parent Newsletter #8

Good Afternoon Parents and Students,

Our word for September is Self-Direct. Based on the "Capturing Kids' Hearts" (CKH) curriculum, Self-Direct means a student takes responsibility for their own learning, choices, and behavior without needing constant reminders, supervision, or external direction from teachers or parents.

Key aspects of self-direction include:

Self-Regulation & Discipline: Managing one's time, staying focused on tasks, and making positive choices independently.

Goal Setting & Initiative: Taking ownership of academic and personal goals, identifying steps to reach them, and taking action proactively.

Problem-Solving: Working through challenges or seeking resources independently before relying on others.

Accountability: Accepting responsibility for actions, decisions, and outcomes rather than blaming external factors.

CKH Parent Newsletter

Attention Seniors and Senior Parents: Please remove all bonfire signs from Slade Field by October 4, 2026.

Student Items

Unfortunately we are unable to have any forgotten items dropped off and/or delivered to students. We do not have the staff or time to deliver any of these forgotten items (this includes cell phones). We need to provide adequate student supervision for our students to ensure their safety and the campus safety. We appreciate your cooperation and collaboration with us on this matter.

Student Lunches

We are a closed campus for lunches. All students must remain on campus for lunches unless they have an Off period or College period. Lunch deliveries and Door Dash are prohibited. If you are arriving late to campus from a doctor’s appointment or other appointment please finish all refreshments or food prior to arrival. Parents may not drop off food for his or her student. We appreciate all your help and cooperation.

A Friendly Reminder About Sick Students

Please help us keep our school community healthy by keeping your child home when they are sick. Students should stay home if they have a fever of 100°F or higher, vomiting, diarrhea, or are too ill to comfortably participate in the school day. If your child has a suspected contagious illness, please follow recommended guidelines before returning to school. We know it’s not always easy to keep a child home, but allowing them time to rest and recover helps prevent illness from spreading. Thank you for helping us keep our students and staff healthy!

Parent Questions, Concerns, and Conferences

In order to ensure timely communication and action, if there are concerns or questions in your child’s classroom please contact the teacher FIRST. They will be able to answer your questions and address any of your concerns. Allow the teacher the opportunity to communicate with you and your student first. If the teacher, student, and parent cannot come to an agreement or resolution, please schedule an appointment with your child’s Assistant Principal and teacher. If you have any questions and/or concerns for Brazoswood Administration, please use this chart and allow the Brazoswood administration the opportunity to communicate with you FIRST before going straight to the superintendent, the JUSTAsk button, district office, and/or social media platforms. We will respond to emails and parent phone calls during school hours 7:10-3:30. We appreciate all your cooperation and collaboration as we work together to meet our student needs. We all want the BEST for each and every student. Let’s all work together to positively support one another for our students’ success!

Attention Parents: Please make sure your child is picked up from school in a timely manner each day. Dismissal begins at 3:15 p.m. and supervision ends at 3:45 p.m. Please review the Administrative Regulation and Protocols below:
