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.

We are in the middle of Kindergarten Round-up this week.  If you have a kindergartener coming to Austin next year, please consider registering this week so we can begin to see the number of students we will have next year.  Registration is on-line and the only thing needed when you come to school is the registration number generated and the required documents necessary to complete the process.  If you have questions, please call the school at 832-223-1000.

This Thursday is our Volunteer Tea to honor our loyal volunteer that serve Austin in a variety of ways.  All of our students will be performing to let the volunteers know how much we appreciate them.  This event will be starting at 8:30 am in the cafeteria.  We look forward to a great event!!!
