Any Bulldogs planning to try out for the baseball team need to be at this meeting with a parent.
Dear QCISD family,
A QCISD Gifted and Talented program awareness session is scheduled for August 29th at 8:30 A.M. During this session, parents can learn about our GT assessment procedures and services.
Students in grades K-12 may be nominated by a teacher, counselor, parent, or family member; however, a parent or legal guardian must sign the permission to test form before any testing for the GT program can begin. Please contact your student's campus counselor for more detailed information about the program nomination and screening process. The window for nomination and testing opens on September 1.
The Texas State Plan for the Education of Gifted/Talented Students forms the basis of our GT services and accountability. Queen City Schools utilize the Texas Performance Standards Project for our program format. The GT Handbook can be found at https://www.qcisd.net/page/gifted-and-talented-program
Sincerely,
Shannon Henderson,
Assistant Superintendent
of Instruction and Curriculum
& State and Federal Programs

A policy change regarding the use of E-Cigarettes and vape pens passed by the 88th Texas Legislature will impact our discipline practices starting with the 23-24 school year.
House Bill 114 (HB 114) was voted into law to address the increasing concerns around e-cigarettes, vaping, marijuana, and THC-related products among our youth. The Bill mandates that any student found in possession of, under the influence of, selling, gifting, or delivering these substances on or within a 300-feet radius of any school premises, will be immediately removed and placed in a Disciplinary Alternative Education Program (DAEP). You can access the full version of the Bill here: https://capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/88R/billtext/pdf/HB00114F.pdf
Please take a moment to discuss the implications of this new law and the new changes to our disciplinary practice with your children. Emphasize the importance of adhering to school policies and laws for their welfare and the betterment of the school community.
Your cooperation and support in ensuring that Queen City ISD remains a safe, healthy, and thriving educational environment for our students is deeply appreciated. If you have any questions or concerns about this new policy, please contact your child’s campus principal.
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students and shape a better future for them.
MESSAGE FROM MRS. CHILDRESS
The MUMS Office will be closed for the rest of this week. We hope our office can open back up on Monday, July 31st. If you need information about registering, please contact the high school or elementary and someone should be able to assist you. If you need to drop off paperwork or documents, please do that on any campus and we will make sure it gets to the middle school.
Pursuant to the TEC Code 39.053, the QCISD Board of Trustees will conduct a public hearing on July 31 at
6:00 PM at the Thornton Administration Office concerning the evaluation of the effectiveness of SCE
interventions for students failing to meet the EOC standards.
An accident at Morris Upchurch Middle School earlier today resulted in one of the stage curtains catching on fire. Cass County firefighters were called to the scene and quickly extinguished it. Thankfully, there was minimal damage and no injuries, and the clean-up process has already started. QCISD thanks all the first responders for their speedy response and help today.
