How do I exempt from immunization requirements?
The law allows (a) physicians to write a statement stating that the vaccine(s) required would be medically harmful or injurious to the health and well-being of the child or household member, and (b) parents/guardians to choose an exemption from immunization requirements for reasons of conscience, including a religious belief. The law does not allow parents/guardians to elect an exemption simply because of inconvenience (for example, a record is lost or incomplete and it is too much trouble to go to a physician or clinic to correct the problem). Schools and child-care facilities should maintain an up-to-date list of students with exemptions, so they may be excluded in times of emergency or epidemic declared by the commissioner of public health.
Instructions for requesting the official exemption affidavit that must be signed by parents/guardians choosing the exemption for reasons of conscience, including a religious belief, can be found at www.ImmunizeTexas.com. Original Exemption Affidavit must be completed and submitted to the school or child-care facility. Frequently Asked Questions related to immunization exemptions may be obtained here. For children claiming medical exemptions, a written statement by the physician must be submitted to the school or child-care facility.
Do I need to enroll for transportation?
Yes. Enrollment for transportation services is included in the New Student Enrollment Packet. For Returning Students, enrollment for transportation services can be done through txConnect. As of February 16, 2016, LTISD utilizes the SMART tag transportation system for all student bus riders. Please visit our SMART tag website for more information.
How do I sign up to receive bad weather/emergency notification text messages, campus and district newsletters, and other news?
LTISD uses the Blackboard Mass Notifications system to deliver important information to you through voice messages, email, social media, and SMS text messaging. Your email and phone numbers must be current in Skyward Family Access. District and campus officials will use the service to provide parents with timely and relevant information regarding emergencies, news, events and activities. Please know however, this service is not intended to replace other existing means of District and campus communication.
Moving to Another School IN the District?
If you are moving to another LTISD school, please contact your current campus registrar. You will need to provide your new school with your new proof of residence within the district. Your student's files/records will automatically be transferred to your new school.
