We'll have more financial details to share at our next PTA general meeting on Tuesday, November 15 at 8am in the cafeteria, including how those additional funds will benefit our school. 
We cannot Thank You enough. THANK YOU!

Children can use cash during shopping week, but Book Fair gift cards are an easy payment method that won't get lost in a backpack! 
 
Use any leftover amounts online or at our next Literati Book Fair!
 
They also make great gifts for teachers!

Election Day is Tuesday November 8th. We encourage all PTA members and our school community to participate in your civic duty and VOTE.
 
At our October General Membership Meeting, Cypress Springs Elementary PTA membership voted to adopt a resolution in support of the passage of the 2022 DSISD Bond Propositions. These bonds will allow the district to construct new buildings, renovate and maintain existing facilities, and provide state-mandated technology for students - all for the improvement of the educational experience of our district.
 
 Per Texas PTA's advocacy guidance, a local PTA may take positions on education and child advocacy issues, including initiatives and referendums voted on at the local or state level.

Proposition A in the DSISD 2022 Bond includes the construction of Elementary School #6, expansion of Sycamore Springs MS to 1,200 student capacity, campus security updates, land for future district facilities, and capital maintenance projects on DSISD's oldest campuses.
 
Proposition B in the DSISD 2022 Bond includes the construction of a second comprehensive high school that is expected to open for the 2026-27 school year and accommodate 2,500 students.
 
Proposition C in the DSISD 2022 Bond includes replacing district technology devices for students and staff that are in accordance with the district’s lifecycle replacement schedule.
