A reminder to parents and students that we love to see you all supporting our Panthers on the field on Friday nights. With that said, we must remind you that students are NOT allowed to be dropped off at the stadium. For the safety of all students and guests, it is essential that children be in the bleachers unless they are visiting the concession stand or restroom. Also, students are required to be accompanied by an adult to the game. Thank you for supporting our players, our school, and our rules!

Labor Day Reminder
We are experiencing a power outage this morning but it only affects two areas: 6th grade hallway and cafeteria. Our generator keeps our freezers operational so no food loss resulted. However, lunch today may be a "cold" lunch such as sandwiches. There is enough air circulation through the elementary to cool the cafeteria and enough light through the windows, so secondary students will be able to eat in there. Elementary lunches will be delivered to classrooms. Electricians hope to repair the main breaker once school is out today. Thanks for your understanding. The rest of the district has electricity and is operating as normal.

Immunizations
Per new TEA guidance issued 8/19/21, notification is required to parents of students or a teacher testing positive within a classroom setting or extracurricular program. That is the new requirement issued yesterday. However, due to the size of Alba-Golden ISD and the cross-interaction of our students both inside and outside of classrooms, AGISD will publicly post for everyone to see whenever a positive case is confirmed. This is the same procedure we used last school year. We realize these posts can be repetitive and often people get tired of seeing them, but we had rather err on the side of caution. Thank you for understanding as we post this information here on social media and our website going forward. If your student is showing symptoms, we ask that you keep them at home during illness or receive a negative COVID test result to rule-out the possibility before sending them back to school. Thank you for your cooperation.

*** Just a reminder of the change in the flow of traffic this afternoon! *** In order to improve the safety of our students and parents, our afternoon pickup line will be routed to the back of the football field, loop around, and come down through the elementary campus (see arrows). This will allow us to stack cars around the loop and get afternoon traffic off Highway 69, which is a huge safety concern in the afternoons. We will have a staff member at the gate directing traffic. DO NOT TURN RIGHT AT THE GATE BUT GO AROUND TO THE BACK OF THE FOOTBALL FIELD AND ENTER THE BACK GATE DOWN THROUGH CAMPUS. Again, this will allow us to get more cars off Highway 69 in the afternoons.

***COVID-19 guidance and protocols for 2021-2022 school year*** The Texas Education Agency (TEA) recently released guidance for public school districts in Texas. The following guidelines will be in effect (subject to change based on governmental orders) for this school year: Effective as of date (8/9/21) 1. Masks are not required per Governor's Order for students or staff. Masks may be worn if desired and will not be prohibited for anyone wanting to wear one. We certainly recognize and honor this is personal choice. 2. Positive, confirmed cases are not allowed on campus for school or extracurricular activities. If you are experiencing symptoms, we encourage individuals to get tested and receive a negative test before returning. 3. Positive, confirmed cases must quarantine for 10-days from the onset of symptoms. Parents may voluntarily choose to quarantine their student(s) if they are known to have come in close contact with a confirmed, positive case. The school district will not be forcing quarantine of close-contacts. 4. Rapid testing is available on-campus for staff and any student with parent permission. Contact the school nurse on your campus for details. 5. School districts are not required to conduct contact tracing anymore. However, if a positive case is confirmed and close contacts are known, then parents will be notified. Public announcements broadcasting confirmed cases in the district are no longer required. 6. Confirmed cases are still required to be reported to local health officials and state health agencies. 7. AGISD will continue to perform proactive strategies such as frequent handwashing, social distancing when appropriate, and sanitization of facilities and buses at the end of each day. 8. Vaccinations are not required but opportunities for vaccination clinics will continued to be shared via email and social media to the public. We appreciate your help in allowing us to have as "normal" a year as possible. We believe our students and staff deserve everyone's effort in making sure that is a strong possibility. Any changes to these guidelines will be communicated if they are implemented. Thank you and we look forward to a great 2021-2022 school year!
