SUPER KIDS DAY VOLUNTEERS

  • Super Kids Day is coming up on May 1st, and we need volunteers! Complete an Humble ISD background check (if you have not already), and sign up for a shift shift here: morning shift, afternoon shift, popsicle shift.

DRESS CODE

  • As the weather has warmed up and we are in our spring months, we want to remind families to check students’ clothing for appropriate fit and length. Over the winter, many children have experienced growth spurts, and shorts, skorts, and skirts that fit well a few months ago may now be shorter than intended.  In addition, some current shorts and skorts styles may be too short for the school setting.
  • To help maintain a comfortable and respectful learning environment for all students, please ensure that shorts, skorts and skirts are of appropriate length and follow our school dress guidelines. Taking a moment to review spring and summer clothing now can help avoid any distractions during the school day.
  • We appreciate your support in helping our students come to school dressed for success and ready to learn.

EPI SCHOOL SUPPLIES ORDERING

  • It is that time of year to order school supplies for the 2026-2027 school year. Order your EPI School Supplies at  www.educationalproducts.com/shoppacks using the code SHA020 now until May 19th.
