Character Counts Week is from Oct. 16th - Oct. 23rd. 

We are highlighting the value of good character and its importance of building strong communities that value positive and healthy relationships. We are asking parents to donate nonperishable food items to our school. The Wraparound Specialist and Counselor will be donating the food items to shelters and churches in our community who help families in need. Donations can be dropped off at the front desk next week. Feel free to email Ms. Prince at cprince3@houstonisd.org or Ms. Pinkney at tpinkney@houstonisd.org. Thank you for your support! 

As Lovett's Wraparound Resource Specialist, I am here to support students and families with non-instructional resources. Please contact me at cprince3@houstonisd.org or fill out a SAF (student assistance form) at www.houstonisdsaf.com if you need any of the resources listed:

• legal support
• clothing/socks
• food
• rental/utility assistance
• hygiene products 

HISD’s Gifted and Talented Programs serve students who have been identified by HISD as gifted and talented in general intellectual ability. These Gifted and Talented programs offer a differentiated curriculum designed to meet the needs of gifted students by modifying the depth, complexity, and pacing of the general school program. HISD tests students who were not previously identified as gifted and talented in what is called Applicant Testing. Testing will take place between November 13 and December 15. Firm dates will be available after November 3rd.

The applicant testing of students allows identified students to receive G/T services in HISD’s Gifted and Talented Programs during the Spring of their current school year. All students who are identified as gifted and talented in HISD will retain their G/T identification providing they subsequently enroll in an HISD Gifted and Talented Program upon identification and are continuously enrolled in an HISD Gifted and Talented Program thereafter. Upon completion of the G/T identification process, parents are notified and will receive a copy of the completed G/T Identification Matrix.
