Good afternoon Heights Community! We are so excited about our 4th 9 Weeks PBIS SOARing Event. The student community voted overwhelmingly for a Trip to the Park! Lunch will be provided for each student by the TASD food truck! To qualify to attend, students must earn a combined total for the 4th 9 weeks beginning March 27 - May 17. (36 School Days). K-2nd Grade must earn 272 points, and 3rd-6th Grade must earn 400 points. Students will only earn points on days that they are at school and have the potential to earn extra points throughout the day based on SOARing behavior. As we enter the last 9 weeks of the year, attendance and behavior are essential, and we would love to see every student succeed as we SOAR at The Heights!

Hello Heights Families, With Pikmykid, dismissal is becoming easier by the day! If you are a car rider, the most efficient method will be to “announce” when you arrive through the app. This is a manual operation and will not automatically occur when you arrive. This greatly speeds up the dismissal process and ensures the safety and whereabouts of your student(s). If you are unable to announce, please have your student's ID(s) or car tag readily available. If your pickup mode has changed for your student(s), please update within the app before announcing. If you have any issues, please EMAIL Ms. Watt at stephanie.watt@tasd7.net or Mr. Patterson at jeffery.patterson@tasd7.net.
