CHANGE TO SCHOOL CALENDAR
Trustees approved an amendment to the 2007-2008 school calendar that moves the April student holiday/staff development day from Monday, April 28th to Monday, April 21. This amendment comes on the heels of recent changes to the Texas Education Agency's testing calendar. Various forms of the TAKS assessment will be administered the week of April 28, requiring District officials to make a calendar change to avoid testing students on the first day back from a holiday. As always, you can find this and other late breaking news on the CARROLL ISD website under BREAKING NEWS -

Family Access usernames and passwords are available in the front office. You must show a drivers license in order to pick up the information.

SAFETY AND SECURITY
In light of the recent events in schools across the nation, the administration and staff at Dawson have reviewed our own safety procedures. We want to ensure that we are doing everything possible to provide a safe and secure campus.

Texas Avenue doors in the front and the back will be opened at 7:30 a.m. each morning. The front doors will open at 8:00 a.m. Please have your child go to the gym area if they arrive before 8:00 a.m.
Please drop off your child at the back of Dawson unless they have been issued a dual pass (students at Dawson and Eubanks) or are arriving early for band.
Please remember that teachers are on duty at 8:00 a.m. for student tutoring. Parents are asked not go to teacher classrooms without an appointment during this time.
Please check in at the front office when entering the building and you will be given a visitor’s pass. If you are here to check out your child, you may proceed to the attendance window; you will not be required to get a visitor’s badge. Your signature will be logged in the attendance office

Our goal at Dawson is to remain a warm and inviting campus, while still ensuring the safety of all students, parents and staff members. Thank you for helping make Dawson a safe place for learning.
