Kinder and 1st grade students must have an adult or older sibling present to receive their child. Individuals receiving Kinder or 1st grade students at the flag pole will need to be in possession of a picture ID, so the staff member can verify release authorization on the first day of school. We will then give a White Austin Walker/Biker Tag to use the following days. You could also get a White Austin Walker/Biker Tag from your child's teacher.

For Kinder and 1st grade, please email your child's teacher if you give permission for your child to be released by an older sibling. We must have this parent permission documentation on file. 

We will not release students to parents parked in the parking lot. You must meet your child at the flag pole.

Astronotes for October 21, 2015

Oct 21, 2015 | Bud Whileyman

This Saturday is our Fall Carnival.  We will be having it rain or shine.  Activities are scheduled for outside but if the weather does not cooperate there is an alternate plan to allow the carnival to go on. The Carnival is scheduled from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm.  Most of the staff will be in attendance with treats being given out at each teacher’s door.  We will be giving the students an early “trick or treat”.  Come out with the family and enjoy a fun experience with the children.

This Friday the Rosenberg Rotary Club will be giving out dictionaries to all of our 3rd grade students.  The Rotary Club does this for all elementary school in the district. 

Distribution at Austin is scheduled for 9:30 am.  Also since this Friday is the last day of the 9-weeks, students do not have to wear their uniform dress.  We will be having a celebration of the first 9-weeks accomplishments on November 13th after all parent conferences have been completed.  Have a great rest of the week!

If you are able to volunteer at the Fall Carnival, please click the link below to sign up!
