 WEBMASTER'S CORNER

PARENTS:

To participate in Band Activities students must meet the standards set by the EPISD.  Students who have a grade of 69 or lower in a class may not perform with the band until they average a passing grade (70) or higher in all classes.  A student's ineligibility to perform with the band, has a negative impact on the individual and collective effort of the ensemble.

We encourage that Parents track their child's academic progress using the PARENT PORTAL, to ensure the participation of all students in band activities.

The PARENT PORTAL is at:  https://teams.episd.org/selfserve/EntryPointHomeAction.do?parent=true.  Once in the site, click on 'Notifications' and set when you want system-originated messages about your child's attendance, daily assignment grades, as well as current grading cycle averages. This action will help you identify possible problems by receiving notifications if your child's grades drop below the average you choose.

Are you not receiving e-mail messages from the Webmaster?  Has your e-mail address changed since your son or daughter joined the band?  Are you a band member, but don't get e-mails from the Webmaster?  If you answered 'Yes' to any of the previous questions and would like to be up-to-date on the FHS Star of the West Band activities, send a message to:  Webmaster@fhsstarband.com requesting that your name be added to our e-mail addresses database.  Please include the graduation year in your message!
