Food Allergy Awareness
A letter from the School Nurse Dear Parents: In our Wallace student population, we have quite a few children who have severe food allergies. Some of our student’s allergies are so severe they can experience a life threatening allergic reaction if they are in close proximity to nuts, nut containing foods, or packaging of nut containing foods. In order to protect our students, we will advise all students not to consume nuts, or nut containing products in class. This includes peanuts, almonds, cashews, nut butters, and items such as granola bars with nuts. Signage will be placed on classroom doors as a reminder. We are asking that you only send snacks for during the day that are nut free. Peanuts and tree nut products that are in individual lunch boxes are permissible in the cafeteria only, though we encourage you to consider sending other options. Sunflower seeds are not tree nuts and are allowed. Thank you for your cooperation in making Wallace Middle School a safe place for all students. Respectfully, Blair Powell BSN, RN Hays CISD School Nurse Wallace Middle School (512)268-2891 Ext. 46625 blair.powell@hayscisd.net

Ramos Named Science Hall ES Principal
Superintendent Dr. Eric Wright announced Tuesday that current Science Hall Elementary School Assistant Principal Iric Ramos will serve as the new principal at the campus effective immediately. Ramos, a career professional educator with 15 years of experience, replaces Karen Zuniga who was hired in June to become the principal at Lehman High School. “Iric is the right fit for Science Hall Elementary. He knows the students, the campus and the community, and he is positioned to make the change in principals a smooth process for everyone,” said Superintendent Dr. Eric Wright. “He served as a key member of the leadership team that not only brought the campus out of ‘Improvement Required’ status, but helped the campus go from a failing grade to a ‘B’ in one year. Iric is a collaborative leader and a systems thinker and will continue the trajectory of student achievement success at Science Hall.”

School Supply Lists 2019-2020
Hays CISD uses standardized school supply lists based on grade levels for elementary school. The lists are downloadable and printable on single-sheet PDFs. Secondary schools (middle and high school) do not have standardized lists. Individual classroom teachers will communicate the supplies needed for each specific class. In order to be prepared for the first day of school we encourage students to come to school with their basic school supplies (pencil, pen, paper, etc.). If you are unable to afford school supplies, please contact your child's campus counselor. If you wish to make a school supply donation, please contact the district's Community Partnerships office.
