Windsor Park Elementary School

AR Goals for the first grading period will be shared with students this week.

The expectation for our WP Owls is that all students will achieve their AR goals every marking period. This consists of two parts: average percent correct must be 85% or greater and point goal is met.

Please provide dedicated time each day for your child to read aloud with you in lower grades and independently in upper grades. Please also your child questions about their AR goals.

Looking forward to seeing parents at Back to School Night tomorrow night (August 19)

5:30-6:30 Grades 1 & 2
6:30-7:30 Grades 3-5

Join us to hear about grading guidelines, classroom information and much more!

On rainy days, students in first and second grades may need to stay inside during dismissal and come to the front as you arrive for pick up. Your child's teacher will send a Dojo message to let you know if we need to use the rainy day protocol. If so, you’ll message the teacher when you arrive to campus, and we’ll send your child to the front vestibule to be escorted safely to you.

Students in grades 3-5 will be under the awning on the Sheridan Street side as per usual unless blowing rain or lightning make conditions unsafe. In that instance, students will be seated just inside the doors on the Sheridan Street side and we will release them to awaiting cars and parents as you arrive.

Any parent may drop students off at the front door of the school or at the Sheridan Street carpool area beginning at 7:30 am.

After the school, the front of the school is reserved for Grades 1 & 2 pickup, and the Sheridan Street side if for grades 3-5 pickup.

All bus students are dropped off and picked up in the bus loop outside the cafeteria.

All CCISD Libraries will be welcoming students back the week of August 25th. Students who have taken AR quizzes through June 30 will have their records credited for those tests shortly after our library opens. We are looking forward to a great library year!

Corpus Christi ISD is proud to announce the next phase of its 1:1 for everyone, which expands access to digital learning tools for all grade levels. During the 2025–26 school year, students in grades K–12 will have access to a district-issued device. Students in grades 3 through 5 will have access to a 1:1 device while at school, and students in grades 6-12 will have a device directly assigned to them for use at school and home. Families of students in grades 3–8 will also have the option to request that their child’s device be sent home for extended learning opportunities. Highlights of the Initiative: Internet filters: All devices will be equipped with internet filtering to help ensure safe browsing at school and home. Insurance options: Families will have access to device insurance options ranging from $15-$30, which can be found on the school webstore. Student Technology Service Center: Certified high school student technicians will continue to provide device repair and maintenance through the Student Technology Service Center, supporting both sustainability and career-ready skills development. “Providing devices for each student ensures equitable access districtwide and enables students to take learning beyond the four walls of the classroom, when appropriate,” said Director of Technology Support Services Janelle Reyes. To learn more about the 1:1 Student Device Initiative—including FAQs, please visit ccisd.us/page/technology-services or reach out through Let’s Talk or by contacting Technology Services by texting (361) 600-3691 or emailing Let’s Talk at ccisd.tx@k12-lets-talk.com
