October 14, 2016
Shadow Creek was excited to welcome Congressman Randy Weber
to our campus on Wednesday, October 12th. Our staff and students
were proud to show off the campus and some of the great things we
have happening in our Health Science and Engineering classes.
UIL Waivers
UIL Waivers for Pre-AP/AP/Dual Credit classes are due Friday, October 21st at 1 pm
in Mrs. Robert’s office (A116). Students requiring a waiver for the first nine weeks grade must
turn in a waiver to remain eligible for the next nine weeks. This only applies to core and
foreign language classes that are Pre-AP, AP, or Dual Credit, and Pre-Cal.
PSAT TESTING
On Wednesday, October 19th, all SCHS students
will be taking the PSAT. Students – don’t
forget that you need to bring your own
calculator for the test. All problems can be
done without a calculator, but having one can
help students answer questions quicker. The only
calculators that are approved for testing are basic
four-function, scientific, or graphing calculators
that are on the approved graphing calculator list
in your PSAT student guide.
Parents, students and community members
are invited to attend the SCHS dedication
ceremony and afterwards enjoy
refreshments and self-guided tours of the
building. We hope to see you there!
SCHS BAND AND COLORGUARD
We would like to congratulate the SCHS Marching Band and
directors for placing 3rd in their very first class 5A marching
contest! And a huge shout out goes to the SCHS Color Guard
for achieving “outstanding color guard” in class 5A 2016 Katy
Marching Festival! Way to go Sharks!

FIGHT THE NEW DRUG (FTND) PRESENTATIONS
Our children are confronted with a growing number of challenges that many of us did not encounter during our
time in school. The rise of social media and the frequent use of the Internet have both led to an environment
where students are confronted with questionable material at younger ages. Our intent is to partner with Alvin ISD
families to provide resources and information that will be useful to parents as you support your children in the
way you find most appropriate. The full partnership, outlined below, begins with an informational parent
assembly to ensure you are fully aware of the content that will be shared during the upcoming Fight the New
Drug student presentation at Shadow Creek High School.
Alvin ISD has partnered with Mrs. Kerri Taylor and the organization “Unbound Houston” to offer the program
titled, Fight the New Drug (FTND) at our three comprehensive high schools. Fight the New Drug presents an
interactive and age-appropriate presentation that uses science, research, and personal accounts to educate students
about cyber safety and the harmful effects of pornography. Alvin Independent School District will be one of the
many school districts in Texas to provide the FTND assemblies to their high school students, offering a parent
assembly prior to the student presentations.
On October 25, 2016 at 6:00 PM in the Shadow Creek High School Auditorium, a community viewing will be
held to inform parents of the harmful effects of pornography and serve as a preview of the school assembly. The
presentation will provide parents an opportunity to hear and review this information and ask questions prior to the
Shadow Creek High School student assembly on October 26, 2016. Due to limited space in our auditorium, we
ask that only parents/guardians attend this meeting.
We hope you find this opportunity as a meaningful resource; however, if you prefer that your child not be a part
of this event, please download the opt-out form at the end of the newsletter, and return it to your child’s Assistant
Principal by 7:30 am on October 26, 2016.
