Attendance

At the end of each six weeks we will draw one boy’s and girl’s name per grade level to win an attendance prize bag, and we will also reward all the other students who have perfect attendance with a smaller prize. Prizes may change pending availability.

1st Six Weeks – Football tattoos
2nd Six Weeks – Candy bracelets
3rd Six Weeks – Miniature Slinkys
4th Six Weeks – Stamp
5th Six Weeks – Sticky hands
6th Six Weeks – Chalk

Each class also has the opportunity to earn a popcorn party and be recognized over the intercom once they fill their attendance poster.

Perfect attendance for the year will be rewarded at the end of the year assembly with a medal and with the student’s name being entered in a drawing for a large prize such as a scooter.

Prompt and regular attendance, which is missing three or less days from the start of the school year, will receive a prompt and regular medal at the end of the year assembly. Students that have had perfect attendance throughout their Pre-kindergarten (if applicable), Kindergarten, first grade and second grade school years will receive a bicycle at the end of second grade.

The Texas Education Code mandates that a child must attend at least 90% of the days the class is offered to receive credit. If excessive days are missed the parents (or guardians) may be required to meet with school personnel to determine how work can be made up and to discuss the progress of the child.

Shining Star

We like to celebrate our students’ accomplishments and our Shining Star program helps us achieve this goal. Students earn shining star certificates throughout the month. Certificates are earned by making good choices, returning homework, being respectful, following directions, etc… At the end of the month, we have a drawing where we select two students from each grade level as our Shining Star students. They earn a shining star award, and they have their picture displayed on the MISD App.

Pick Up and Drop Off Procedures

One of our top priorities at Dillman Elementary is the safety of each and every child. To create the safest environment possible for our students we have devised procedures we would like for staff, students, and parents to follow at the end of the day.

If your child arrives after 8:05, you will need to bring them to the office. All doors will be locked at that time.

If you need to change the way your child is going home the office will need to be notified no later than 2:45. After 2:45 your child will need to follow the guidelines you selected at the beginning of the year.

Do not text or email your child’s teacher with changes to student dismissal. Teachers are busy with instruction during the day and may not check email or text messages. All messages during the day need to be directed to the office or you may send a written note to school with your child. We will not accept changes over the phone due to security reasons.

Once buses are loaded students will not be allowed off of the bus. Taking students off of the bus causes the bus route to each school to be delayed and creates a huge safety issue for students.

1st and 2nd grade PICK UP is on Avenue E behind the building by the gym. Please park, and your child will notify the staff member on duty when their ride has arrived.

PK & KINDER PICKUP – and any 1st and 2nd grade sibling of PK and Kinder students

Pick up in the circle drive is for parents of PK and KINDER students. Please stay in your vehicle. Your child will be escorted to your vehicle. Parents of PK and kinder students who also have 1st and/or 2nd graders need to notify the teacher that your 1st and/or 2nd grader will be picked up with the PK/Kinder sibling in the circle drive.

Pick up in the parking lot on the South East parking lot is for parents who wish to park and stand along the sidewalk. Please wait away from the kindergarten doors. We need to be able to see the adult that each child leaves with. Parents of PK and kinder students who also have 1st and/or 2nd graders need to notify the teacher that your 1st and/or 2nd grader will be picked up with the PK/Kinder sibling on the South East area near the kindergarten doors.

Please call our office at (806) 272-7382 if you have any questions. Thank you for your cooperation as we do our best to keep our students safe.
