Dear Covington Families,
We have officially wrapped up STAAR testing for the year! I am incredibly proud of the effort and focus our students demonstrated throughout the testing season. I am confident they gave it their very best, and we look forward to seeing the results when they are released by the Texas Education Agency later this summer. It will be exciting to celebrate the progress they have made!
As we move quickly toward the end of the school year, we have many important events ahead. One of the most meaningful is Teacher Appreciation Week, which will take place May 5th–9th. I encourage all families to take a moment to show gratitude to the incredible teachers and staff who have worked tirelessly to support our students academically, socially, and emotionally this year. Whether it’s a simple thank you note, a kind email, or another small gesture, it means the world to them. Your partnership and encouragement have made a huge difference, and I am truly grateful for everything you have done to help our students succeed.
Additionally, next week our science teachers will begin delivering the Human Sexuality and Responsibility curriculum, which is aligned with Austin ISD and TEA policies. If you would like your child to participate and have not yet submitted your opt-in form, please complete it using the link below:
