Our incredible counseling team has been working very hard to ensure students are in the correct classes. We know there are going to be some errors and corrections that need to be addressed in the first week of school. In order to take care of the most critical needs first we are asking all students to follow their schedule as written.

Our counseling team will only conduct schedule changes for the following needs:

• The student is a senior and does not have a course required for graduation.

• The student does not have the prerequisites for a course.

• Course credit was previously recieved (i.e. - through summer school, correspondence courses, Examination for Acceleration, etc.)

• A data entry error made by the school (i.e. - two-first-period classes, or a schedule that does not contain the full number of classes.

• Student has been dismissed from a program where approval must be granted for placement.

Students may use this form to request schedule changes that meet the above guidelines https://forms.gle/XKTrmFH1AcKzSzS78

In AISD, each secondary student is issued a Chromebook to assist them with their school work. Travis requires students to bring their charged laptops to school.

Returning students should have their school issued Chromebook from last year.

We will not distribute Chromebooks the first week of school.

Student and Staff parking is on the Southeast side of the building, between the gym and I-35.

The limited parking on the Southwest corner of the building near Blunn Creek is for AISD and Travis staff only.

Visitor parking is marked and reserved along the front of the building. Visitors may park in these spaces and enter through the front doors.

ALL visitors must enter through the front office and check in with the receptionist.

We have a closed campus and all visitors must check in at the front office (entrance near Oltorf Street).

Only Seniors are allowed to leave campus for lunch.

All students in grades 9-11 are not permitted to leave campus at any point throughout the day.

Please talk to your student about the importance of staying on campus during the school day. Students often want to go to 7/11, Whataburger, or Starbucks during the school day. This is not permitted and will result in administrative correction.

An issue we faced last year was the rise of food delivery orders. AISD does not allow students to have food delivered to school. Please talk to your students about the safety concern this raises and the need to eliminate this practice at school.
