As of this time, several districts in the surrounding areas and across Texas have ceased the practice of automatically closing down campuses for several days solely to remote learning unless extreme numbers of COVID positive cases occur. Instead, they send the COVID positive individual home. Click the title to read Dr. Perez's COVID letter update.
Kingsville ISD Board of Trustees asks that TEA reduce the required number of Instructional minutes, relax attendance requirements and waive testing standards for the 2020-2021 school year. These decisions would allow districts to focus their efforts on building a safe environment and strong curriculum for all students. Please, click here and read the complete letter.
As you are aware, Monday 09/28 begins our day with approximately 25% of our student body. While the expectation is that all students and staff utilize DrOwl self‐screener app daily, it is reasonable to expect that we may need to help some students learn how to download the app. Read more here please.
This tax rate will raise more taxes for maintenance and operations than last year’s tax rate. The tax rate will effectively be raised by 15.11 percent and will raise taxes for maintenance and operations on a $100,000 home by approximately -$15.
During the 2020-2021 school year, Virtual instruction and In-Person instruction will be offered as required by the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Due to the rising trends of COVID-19, TEA has provided guidance that allows districts the flexibility for a phase in plan for In-Person instruction for the first eight weeks of school with board approval.
