Attention Italy ISD Parents, If you were unable to come to Jr High and High school schedule pick up today, you have another chance to come tomorrow. We will be open 1:30pm to 4:30 pm for anyone who wants to come pick up their schedule and Chromebook for the new school year. We will also reopen from 6:00pm to 7:30pm for the parents that can’t make it to the earlier time slot. Remember we also have Meet the Teacher tomorrow night from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. That means you can come complete your students’ registration, pick up their chrome book, pick up their schedule and meet their teacher in one evening. Just remember this you need to complete your online registration before you can pick up schedules. You will also have the opportunity to complete the online lunch application as well. Chrome book fees are $25 full, $15 reduced, and $10 for free lunch, and if you have more than one student, each additional student is only $10 unlimited. Don’t forget that your student can also pay the first week of school and pick up their chrome books then as well. Hope to see you tomorrow night!

Awesome Job today by ALL teams! Your Lady Gladiators are ready for their next scrimmage, tomorrow at 10 am in the dome! Also, see the updated information pertaining to practices:
