Kinder and 1st grade students must have an adult or older sibling present to receive their child. Individuals receiving Kinder or 1st grade students at the flag pole will need to be in possession of a picture ID, so the staff member can verify release authorization on the first day of school. We will then give a White Austin Walker/Biker Tag to use the following days. You could also get a White Austin Walker/Biker Tag from your child's teacher.

For Kinder and 1st grade, please email your child's teacher if you give permission for your child to be released by an older sibling. We must have this parent permission documentation on file. 

We will not release students to parents parked in the parking lot. You must meet your child at the flag pole.

Dear Parents:

As we have heard on the news and on various social media sites, the FLU season is among us. This is a respiratory illness that can cause various symptoms. Attached is a PowerPoint presentation about the FLU and what the CDC recommends. LCISD and Austin Elementary practice the CDC recommendations. If you or your child have symptoms of the FLU or a fever of 100.0 or greater, please take care, take the time, and get better. Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact me or your physician.

Sincerely,

Tiffany Sutherland, RN- BSN
