Dirks-Anderson Elementary School will conduct its annual parent-child reunification drills on Friday, October 20th to practice emergency evacuation. All students and staff will evacuate to Fort Davis National Historic Site where parents/guardians will pick up their children. The drill will begin Friday afternoon and will include Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 5. Students will evacuate at 3:15 p.m. A telephone message will be sent to parents/guardians instructing them to pick up their child at the Fort beginning at 3:35 p.m. Parents/Guardians will park their vehicle in the Fort’s parking lot and meet their child at the sidewalk. School personnel will be there to reunite parent/guardian and child. For the safety of your child, he/she will be released only to the person listed on the student’s Student Information Card. Make sure you bring legal identification (driver’s license, passport, military ID) to the reunification site. Students will not bring their backpacks or lunch boxes with them when evacuating and will not return to the school after the drill. Please send your child’s lunch in a disposable bag or sack. Contact the school at 432-426-4454 if more information is needed.

Dress Code Update Starting Monday the 2nd of October for Fort Davis Jr/Sr High School, leggings will not be permitted to be worn as an outer garment. Traditionally it has been acceptable for the leggings to be worn as an outer garment if they were covered with an additional outer garment that was no shorter than 3 inches above the top of the kneecap. This has become an issue lately with both Fort Davis parents and students. To make this less of a judgement call each day, and to maximize educational time, leggings are not permitted, with the exception that they are worn as an undergarment with pants. The following are excerpts from the Parent/Student handbook as it relates to this issue. • that in the principal’s judgment may reasonably be expected to cause disruption of or interfere with normal school operations. • Students may not wear, as outer clothing, any clothing that is designed to be worn as an undergarment. At no time should undergarments be visible. Pajamas are not acceptable. It is impossible to list all of the acceptable and unacceptable types of dress and grooming, therefore, a judgment decision must be made at certain times by the campus principal (or principal designees). If the principal determines that a student’s grooming or clothing violates the school’s dress code, the student will be given an opportunity to correct the problem at school and return to the classroom. If the problem cannot be corrected at school, the principal will work with the student and parent to obtain an acceptable change of clothing for the student in a way that minimizes loss of instructional time. Repeated or severe offenses may result in more serious disciplinary action in accordance with the Student Code of Conduct. Exceptions, or modifications, may be made during special occasions, such as homecoming week and Red Ribbon week. Thank you for your support. Mr. George David Allen Principal Fort Davis Jr/Sr High School
