Online registration now available for
returning Dickinson ISD students
  
computerParents can register their returning Dickinson ISD students for the 2013-2014 school year from their computer instead of waiting in line at the campus. 
  
Beginning August 1, Dickinson ISD is moving forward with a new online registration process for returning students. These are students who attended a Dickinson ISD campus in 2012-2013 and are returning for the 2013-2014 school year. A copy of proof of residency is still required to be dropped off at the campus; however, this can be done in August, without having to stand in registration lines.
  
The online registration process is available through the school district website at www.dickinsonisd.org. You can find detailed instructions in both English and Spanish at the following link, as well as a direct link to the Skyward Family Access website where you will complete the registration process.
  
In order to complete the online registration process, parents must have their login infomation (user name and password) for Skyward Family Access. If a parent does not have login information, this can be obtained by showing proper identification in the front office at their child's school.
  
For parents without access to the Internet, computers and assistance will be available at the campuses during designated times to complete the online registration process. If you have questions about registration, contact your child's campus. If you have technical questions about the online registration process, contact the Dickinson ISD Technology Department Help Desk at 281-229-6028. Staff will be available at the campuses and the Help Desk starting Monday, August 5 to answer questions.
  
Parents of students new to Dickinson ISD for 2013-2014 must visit the campus their child will attend and complete the registration process in person as there is more paperwork involved for new students.
  

DISD schools earn $12,000 in HealthierUS School Challenge Awards

  

Seven Dickinson ISD campuses, in conjunction with the district's Food and Nutrition Services Department, earned a total of $12,000 through the HealthierUS School Challenge. The Challenge is a cornerstone of the Let's Move! initiative, which is aimed at solving the childhood obesity epidemic.

 

Five schools - Barber Middle School, Dunbar Middle School, San Leon Elementary, K.E. Little Elementary and Hughes Road Elementary -- were awarded the Gold Award of Distinction and a $2,000 award, while two schools -- Bay Colony Elementary and Calder Road Elementary -- earned the Silver Award of Distinction with a $1,000 award.

 

To earn the awards, schools had to complete a long application process and meet several requirements, including nutrition education, nutritious food and beverage choices, opportunities for physical education and teaching students to make healthy choices.
