Remediation Days – Timpson ISD has five remediation/enrichment days scheduled at the end of each of the first five six weeks periods.  Dates for these days are:

  • October 3 – Monday
  • November 14 – Monday
  • January 20 – Friday
  • March 6 – Monday
  • April 24 – Monday

These dates are also indicated on the 2016-2017 school calendar on the district website at www.timpsonisd.com.  Students who will attend are those with:

  • Two or more unexcused absences
  • Two or more discipline referrals
  • Academic Need

Students will attend school on those days from 8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.  Parents will be responsible for transporting students to and from school.  Meals will not be served.  The purpose of these days is to provide students with the opportunity to make up for unexcused absences and to work with students individually and in small groups to ensure students have mastery of learning skills needed to be successful in their grade level subjects and on state assessment skills.  A note will be sent home to parents of students who need to attend remediation days the week of or the week before the remediation day.  If you have questions, please call your child’s building principal. Parents will receive a letter and or phone call by Thursday Sept. 29 if your child is expected to attend the first remediation day on Monday Oct. 3.
