Grades & UIL Eligibility


Our AVID teacher, Coach Vecchio, sent out the following email blast to her students'
 parents. It is excellent information worth repeating.

GRADES: For those students in a UIL activities such as, band, cheer, athletics, choir, etc. Please know that Friday October 4th is the last day of the IPR period. Students will LOSE ELIGIBILITY if they make below a 70 in any class. They have from now until Friday to bring up any failing grade or they cannot participate in any UIL event for at least 3 weeks. Please help by checking your student’s grades. Below is how to log onto your students grades. If you have not set up you can set up an account, know that all students have set up an account and you can log onto theirs. Here is how it works:
1.       Access txConnect, go to www.pflugervilleisd.net
2.       Click on Parent tab
3.       Click on txConnect
4.       Read and choose the section that applies to you.
a.       Create a new account: You must have the portal ID in order to register, those were handed out at open house, if you need your students portal ID, let me know and I can get it from the counselor, if you want to get it they have it at the front office.
5.       Answer each question
6.       Choose a user id: This is how the students set it up USERNAME: 1st, middle, and last initial + birthday
Example: NDV092681 or KMS102298
7.       Choose a password: This is how the students came up with the password: Birthday month abbreviated + student id #. First letter must be CAPITALIZED.
a.       Example: Sep756128 or Mar792858
8.       Secret Question- high school mascot: Panthers, Hawks, or Pumas
9.       Enter Portal ID. It is a combination of letters and numbers and must be typed exactly as it is shown
10.    Enter students’ birthday: mm/dd/yyyy. Example 09/26/1981
11.    Click Finish
12.    DONE!!
Any 7th or 8th grader who was failing a class as of  Friday was told they must go to mandatory tutorials with the teachers who’s class they are failing and they have to get a document signed and returned to me by Friday or I will assume they skipped mandatory tutorials and that results in an after school detention.
