Families,
Today your student will be bringing home a form from the Nurse's Office.
Effective September 1, 2025 Texas Senate Bill 12 mandates that all students have a health consent form on file for any health-related services at school, including first aid and illness care. Parents can choose to opt-in or opt-out using this form. Choosing "No" on the form means school staff will not be allowed to provide care for illness or injury, except in life-threatening emergencies.

Dear Parents and Community Members,
As you may be aware, the Texas Legislature passed HB 1481 this summer. This law requires, that the school board of every district in the state “adopt, implement, and ensure the district or school complies with the written policy prohibiting a student from using a personal communication device while on school property during the school day.” Further, this law requires that the board’s policy “establish disciplinary measures to be imposed for violation of the prohibition and may provide for confiscation of the personal communication device.” Personal communication devices are defined by this law as “a telephone, cell phone such as a smartphone or flip phone, tablet, smartwatch, radio device, paging device, or any other electronic device capable of telecommunication or digital communication. The term does not include an electronic device provided to a student by a school district.”
While it is best for students to leave their personal communication devices at home given the new law, should your student elect to bring them on school property, our district has elected to: Require student personal electronic devices be stored in backpacks for the entirety of the school day. “School day” under this statute means first bell to last bell and includes lunch, passing period, pep-rallies, and other times that fall during the regular school day. Electronic devices stored in backpack must be either powered off or on silent throughout the school day. Any device seen, heard or accessed will be confiscated.
Once a device is confiscated, disciplinary consequences will follow with each offense progressing in severity. Devices will only be returned to a parent/guardian at the end of the school day or as otherwise determined appropriate by administration.
Please know that you may still reach your child during the school day by calling the campus front office for urgent needs or emailing the student or classroom teacher on their school email for non-urgent communications. While this will be an adjustment state-wide, many studies show that educational outcomes have improved in districts that have adopted similar policies in past years. We hope to see that happen here and look forward to a great year ahead!
Sincerely,
DeeCee McDougal
Superintendent

¡Esperamos que hayan tenido un verano fantástico! Con el primer día de clases a la vuelta de la esquina y los deportes de otoño, es hora de empezar a preparar la documentación y los exámenes físicos de la UIL para sus atletas antes del primer día de prácticas de otoño. Toda la documentación necesaria de la UIL se puede recoger en la oficina principal de lunes a jueves de 9:00 a. m. a 3:00 p. m., o se les puede enviar una copia por correo electrónico si la solicitan ( gstewart@lingleville.us) si no pueden asistir en ese horario. Los exámenes físicos son obligatorios para todos los atletas que cursan 7.º, 9.º y 11.º grado. Aún no sabemos si los alumnos de 6.º grado podrán participar; si el número de alumnos lo permite, según las reglas de la UIL, podrán participar en deportes de equipo. Les recomiendo encarecidamente que se realicen el examen físico junto con la documentación necesaria de la UIL para su hijo/a de 6.º grado; de esa manera, cuando llegue el momento, ya tendremos todos los formularios necesarios. Nuestro cuerpo técnico tendrá su reunión anual de padres de atletas el jueves 31 de julio a las 6:00 p. m. en el gimnasio de la escuela secundaria. Aquí puede consultar todos los horarios de los equipos, la documentación de los atletas y los manuales deportivos para el curso 2025-26, reunirse con cada entrenador y resolver cualquier duda antes del inicio del curso escolar. Primer día de entrenamientos obligatorios (solo en secundaria): Voleibol: 1 de agosto, de 7:00 a 9:00 y de 16:00 a 18:00. Fútbol americano: 4 de agosto, de 17:00 a 20:00. Campo a Traviesa: 4 de agosto, de 6:30 a 8:00. Los entrenamientos de secundaria comienzan el martes 12 de agosto. Como cuerpo técnico, esperamos con ilusión otro año fantástico y estamos deseando volver. ¡Que disfruten del resto del verano!
