PSAT 8/9 Administration
HISD provides for administration of the PSAT 8/9 for all 8th graders. Families and schools can learn more about how to ensure students are ready for college by using the information from the PSAT 8/9. Administration in 8th grade allows students to become accustomed to the layout and content of the assessment. Our 8th graders will take the PSAT 8/9 on Wednesday morning. You can learn more about the PSAT 8/9 at https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/psat-8-9/inside-the-test
Bellaire High School Feeder Pattern Principals to
Take the Shadow a Student Challenge
Principals in our area work closely together to ensure our schools work best for students as they transition through school levels. In our recent feeder pattern meeting, we decided to take the Shadow a Student Challenge!
Shadow a Student Challenge is designed to help educators learn first hand what it is like to be a student in our school? Juggle the workload? Fit into the culture? Next week I will randomly choose a student to shadow, and I will follow that students day from sun up to homework completion.
On Wednesday, October 26th we will all be undergoing this challenge at the same time in our own schools. We look forward to sharing our stories with our communities!

High School Magnet Coordinators Visit POMS
On Tuesday the High School Magnet Coordinators will be at Pin Oak to showcase their programs for our 8th grade students. Your 8th grader will be able to browse tables, ask questions and gather information about programs available in HISD.
Because of the number of students and the limited amount of time, this event is designed for students only.
