Hello Parents and Guardians of Herndon Magnet School Students, this is Tom Thomas, Principal of Herndon Magnet School with some reminders.
The first day of school for grades 1-8 is Wednesday, August 3rd. Attendance will be taken. If
your child will be absent due to extenuating circumstances, please email me at
trthomas@caddoschools.org with the details.
Kindergarten parents will receive a letter tomorrow or Saturday with the date that your
kindergartener reports.
We will have our “Meet Your Teacher” during the day on Tuesday, August 2nd for each grade level, and the times can be found on the Herndon website at herndonmagnet.caddoschools.org.
We look forward to seeing you!
As you visit the new website, please note that many important items are under the
“Documents” tab. Under documents, you can find the dress code, supply lists, summer
reading, and the PaySchools information, and uniform requirements.
You may begin paying class fees on August 3rd. Along with class fees, grades 1-8 pay a
student agenda and technology fee. Kindergarten pays class fees and only the technology fee
because they do not use the student agenda.
If your child is riding the bus, please make sure you have checked the stop information. If you
need assistance, please call the school at 221-7676.
All K-8 car riders will be dropped off and picked up at the north turnaround. Please start your
child on their regular transportation as soon as possible. Please have your car riders’ name or
names posted on the passenger side window. K-2 grades will start coming out at 3:15 PM,
grades 3-5 at 3:20 PM, and middle school at 3:25 PM. Please be patient with us the first few
weeks of school with bus and car riders. If any adjustments need to be made to make the flow
of traffic better, we will let you know.
Please visit Herndon’s new website at herndonmagnet.caddoschools.org or the Herndon
Facebook page for additional information about upcoming activities and events.
