All our policies and procedures are put into place to ensure that our students and staff are able to make the most of our instructional time. We strive to include as much information here as possible. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or suggestions for how we can improve the way we serve our students and families.

Dress code

Club Hill students wear standardized dress.

Students are encouraged to wear school spirit wear with jeans each Friday. Students may wear college shirts on each Wednesday.

• Shirts : Red, White, or Navy Polo style shirts with collars. Short or long sleeves, no logos of any kind.
• Pants/Shorts : Navy or khaki, shorts need to be finger tip length.
• Sweaters/Sweatshirts : Red, Navy or White, no logos.
• Skirts, Skorts, Jumpers : Navy or Khaki, no logos or brand names.
• Shoes: Sneakers are required for P.E. on a daily basis. Cleats, shoes with wheels, metal plates, Crocs, and tap shoes are not permitted.

Attendance

Daily school attendance is vital for student academic success. Students are expected to attend every class, everyday, and on time.

Research shows that missing just two days of school a month can negatively affect a student's overall academic performance. Absences also disrupt learning and make it hard to keep up with the lessons being taught.

If your student must be absent, please submit a notification through Skyward. Official doctor notes for absences may be physically turned into the campus, but a digital version (PDF/photo/scan) is preferred. Parents should submit a digital absence note to the school attendance office within three days of returning to school.

If a student has 3 absences, parents will be notified via Skyward/physical letter. If a student has 5 absences, parents will meet and collaborate with administrators about the absences and campus admin may make a home visit if needed. Unexcused voluntary absences for 10 days or more within 6 months (whether in full days or parts of days) violates state law. This may lead to a court referral against the parent, guardian or student.

Breakfast/lunch

ALL students receive FREE breakfast and lunch on campus. Student Information Update forms for Back-to-School are currently available online to parents in Skyward. Garland ISD is required to collect and report the economic status of each student to the Texas Education Agency for purposes of the annual state accountability ratings and for federal reporting.

Parent Lunches will start back up on Friday, October 4th. 

Please see the guidelines for dining with your student and grade level schedules for your student's lunchtime.

Arrival/dismissal

Students will receive two car tags at the beginning of the year. If guardians misplace their car tag, they will need to bring a valid ID to the front office for a new car tag. Only parents and emergency contacts listed in Skyward will be able to pick up students. Please update Skyward contact information and emergency contacts.

Arrival procedures

Student safety is very important to us. There are no staff members to supervise children prior to 7:30 am. Therefore, students should NOT be dropped off at school prior to this time.

Parents will continue the flow of traffic and exit to the right onto Colonel Dr. Cars should remain in the right lane (curbside) when entering the drive through.

Student Role: Students will exit their cars quickly and walk safely to the building and enter the nearest doorway. Grades 3-5 will proceed to the cafeteria, grades Kinder through 2nd will make their way to the gym, and all PreK students will report directly to their classroom.  All students will sit by grade level with supervising staff members until classroom teachers arrives. When the bell rings, children will enter their classroom.

Morning Bus Duty Side Entrance: A staff member will supervise the students entering the building each morning at the side entrance (Merrimac Trail) from 7:30-8:05 am. The staff member will greet students and remind them to walk to either the cafeteria (3rd - 5th) or the gym (kinder - 2nd)  where they will sit quietly until their teacher arrives.
