P.E.X. Camp and Sprout School Supplies

PEX CAMP:  Are your Dillos bored?  Do you wish you had signed them up for something else?  You’re in luck!  Coach Shaw has a few open PE Extension spots the week of June 26-29,  and a handful of open spots for July 24-27.  Join the P.E.X. family!  It’s like Sports Day, but four days in a row!  SIGN UP HERE!

SPROUT SCHOOL SUPPLIES:  Have you ordered your school supplies for next year?  Orders close in a month, on July 11th!  Don’t miss this opportunity to get your Dillos’ supplies delivered right to their homeroom classrooms!  This is also a great way to raise funds for our sweet school, because Sprout gives us cash back for every box that is purchased.  Just go to www.sproutsupplies.com and enter school code HES003!  Easy!

5 Book Dive

Dillos, join Austin ISD and Book People for The 5 Book Dive! The purpose of the program is to encourage all students to read at least five self-selected books over the summer. Summer is a great time for students to relax with a book (or magazine, or comic, or whatever) and experience the pleasure of reading just for fun! And research has shown that reading just five books can protect students from a drop in reading levels known as the “summer slide.”

Have a Happy Summer!

We wish you all a spectacular summer break. Dillo Details will be paused during June, but will arrive in your inboxes again beginning in July. Be on the lookout for important dates and information for the 2023-2024 school year!
