Parent Input Survey
The end of the school year brings many announcements, events and other important information. Please continue to check grades and attendance using the Parent Portal and read newsletters from your child’s campus and teachers to stay informed and take advantage of opportunities to be involved.
As we prepare for next year, we would love to hear from you about ways we can enhance partnerships with parents. Please take a moment to answer this 2-question survey by April 30th.

OUR PURPOSE
End of Year Testing
The end of the school year is often equated with the anticipation of summer, but also the anxiety of testing season. Encouraging your students to get good rest and nutrition can help prepare their minds and bodies. It may also be helpful to take time to talk with your students about how they are feeling to help them remain self-managed and self-aware as it relates to the stress they may feel. If you are concerned that your child may need mental health support, please reach out to your campus counselor. Click here to access campus phone numbers along with information to access local mental health services if you feel that your child is feeling more than overwhelmed.
Life School Holds 2022 District-Wide Science Fair
Six Life School elementary campuses came together for the Life School District Science Fair at Life School Red Oak Elementary on April 1, 2022. The district also partnered with The Perot Museum for the event. While students waited to present their projects to the judges, they participated in STEM activities with employees from the Perot Museum.
