GISD Parent Involvement

Attention parents

As part of the "No Child Left Behind Act", parents of students in Title I schools may request certain information regarding professional qualifications of their child's teacher(s).

High school ID requirement

Garland ISD wants its students, staff, and parents to know the District is serious about safety. All high school students are required to wear a Student Identification Card (SIC) while on campus. Throughout the school day, students must clearly display SIC's around the neck with a lanyard. Additionally, anytime they are on GISD property - after-school activities, school-sponsored events, etc. - students may be asked to produce their SIC as proof of identity.
