The end of summer is approaching, which means it is time to gear up for another great year in CCISD. In this special Back-to-School edition, parents and students alike will find all the information needed to start the school year out on the right foot.
NEWCOMER INFORMATION
If you are new to CCISD or just moved here during the summer, here are the ABCs to registering your child in our fantastic school district.
Step 1. Find Your Neighborhood School
Clear Creek ISD adopts a neighborhood school concept where neighborhoods are zoned to particular schools. We are not an open-enrollment school district. To find the school nearest you, click on the link above and enter your address. If your address does not populate a school, it may be because you live in a neighboring school district. If this happens, check your property tax information to locate your taxing entity. Clear Creek ISD spans 13 cities and two counties.
Step 2. Enroll Online
CCISD utilizes an online enrollment system to gather pertinent information versus providing parents a large stack of paperwork to fill out. The online system does not require an email address. ENROLL TODAY! Please note: If you already have a student enrolled in CCISD and you are registering a new student, log into your Skyward Family Access account and click on the tab to the left that states: New Student Online Enrollment. This will allow for all of your information to remain together and prevents you from having to re-enter shared information.
Step 3. Submit Important Documents
To finalize enrollment, the school asks for important documentation to verify residency in the school district, your student’s age, and vaccination history. For documentation information,click here. Due to summer hours, the following times/dates have been established for summer enrollment: Elementary Schools: 8:30 a.m.–11:30 a.m. beginning August 6, 2018 Intermediate Schools: Hours vary by campus. Enrollment times are posted on the campus website. Click on “Select a School” on the District’s home page at ccisd.net to locate your school’s hours. High Schools: Registration and course selection are completed by appointment. Click on “Select a School” on the District’s home page to locate your school’s hours.

Elementary Class Lists We want to make sure we have an accurate list of students returning to school. We ask that parents complete their annual back-to-school forms online by August 15, 2018. If forms are not completed by then, your student may or may not be listed on the traditional class list which is Back to School posted on the elementary school doors on Thursday, August 16, 2018. This process will ensure a valid class list for each grade level. Forms ONLINE BEGINNING AUGUST 1, 2018. Important Dates and Reminders Log into your Skyward Family Access Account and check this From Kindergarten Meet the Teacher to Freshmen Camps, there are important task off your list! many exciting opportunities to get an inside look at your child’s school before the start of class. Click on your school website address on the next page to view their back-to-school calendar of events, school supply lists, and teacher websites.
Standards Based Grading Standards Based Grading is a system that allows your child to know exactly what is expected in each content area and provides parents with a more detailed outline of learning expectations and student progress. During the previous two school years, the District implemented Standards Based Grading in Pre-K through third grade. Standards Based Grading will be folded into fourth grade classrooms during the 2018-2019 school year. Click here to learn more about Standards Based Grading and click on available subpages to find parent guides, broken down by grade level and subject areas, as well as a reference to the differences between Standards Based Grading and traditional grading.
Online Payments Available As of last school year, parents of intermediate and high school students are able to pay for applicable course fees by credit card. The online payment system is new to Clear Creek ISD and we have plans to expand the offering for other fees from parking permits to school store items in the future. If your child’s course(s) has an associated fee, you will be able to login to your Skyward Family Access Account and click on Online Fees. It is very similar to the add to cart ap- proach to make a payment. The payment system, RevTrack, does charge a 4% processing fee.

For student safety, there have been some changes to the CCISD Dress Code: no trench coats, oversized jackets, and any hoods on sweaters must be worn down during the school day. Read the entire CCISD Dress Code. Be mindful that intermediate schools may have adopted a Standardized Dress Code. Check your campus website for more information.

Please read the Student Code of Conduct, but let’s hope we won’t have to use it.

Clarification Regarding CCISD High School Start Times School times for the comprehensive high schools in the Clear Creek Independent School District have not changed for the 2018-2019 school year. The only change is the district is publicizing the “First Bell” which is the bell that rings at 7:10 a.m., prompting students to begin heading to class. This is similar to a passing period bell. Students are expected to be in school no later than 7:20 a.m., which is the school’s tardy bell and the bell for first period. The dismissal time for high schools has not changed and remains at 2:30 p.m. VACCINATION & HEALTH INFORMATION

Q. How do I receive text messages? A. At the time of enrollment, parents and guardians should receive an introductory text message prompting you to opt-in to receive messages. It may take up to 24 hours upon enrollment to receive the text message. If you do not receive the initial text message, you can subscribe to text messages at any time by sending a text which says “Y” or “Yes” or “Opt-in” or “Subscribe” to 68453. The cell phone number must be on record with your student information.
