NEW - Kilgore ISD Online Registration
Beginning August 3, 2010 for returning students, parents can complete the
registration process for their children online. This will be a simple and easy
way to make sure your child is ready for the start of school ... and you won't
have to fill out tons of paperwork. New students to the district will need to
contact their child’s campus to register.
If you already have a Family Access account, log on to
Family Access with your username and password.
For each child you have in the district, you will see a button to begin the
registration process. It only takes a few minutes to confirm or change the
information we already have on file. When you complete the steps, your child
will be ready to pick up his or her schedule at "Meet the Teacher" night or
during the posted days for high school and middle school. Please see
this page for schedules and dates for each campus.
If you do not already have a Family Access account,
please click on
Family Access and you will
then see instructions to "Sign Up for a Family Access Account." After your
information is reviewed by your child’s campus, you will receive an email with
your username and password. You will then be ready to log on to Family Access
and complete your child's registration. You can also use this account through
the year to check grades, attendance, and important announcements from your
child's teachers.
In all cases, please know that our faculty and staff are eager to assist you.
If you are unsure of any step, feel free to visit your child's campus. We have
public-access computers available for your use and we'll walk you through the
registration process.
Thank you. We look forward to a great school year.

Trustees Focus ON Leadership
The Kilgore Independent School District school board
and Superintendent Jody Clements, joined trustees from across the state at the
Texas Association of School Boards’ (TASB) Summer Leadership Institute June
17-19 in Ft. Worth. Approximately 1,000 new and veteran school leaders received
in-depth training on every facet of effective board governance, heard keynote
addresses from noted speakers, and gathered valuable ideas for programs that
work.
Topics discussed during the two-and-a-half-day institute included
effective community collaborations, college and career readiness, technology
trends, district police departments, special education law, and school
construction. Breakout sessions also examined social networking, school finance,
bullying and gang prevention, energy management and the changing face of the
Texas labor market, among others.
Sessions for newly elected trustees and board presidents offered a
combination of both breakout and in depth formats. New board members focused on
basics in district planning and budget, school law, boardsmanship, district
policy, teamwork, and an introduction to the Texas Open Meeting Act. Board
presidents explored meeting preparation, parliamentarian procedures, key legal
duties, team building, and facilitation skills. Board members are required to
obtain a minimum of 8 hours of training each year. Those hours must consist of
team building and updates of current law. In addition new board members are
required to obtain an additional 8 hours to orient themselves to local and state
school board frameworks.
The Kilgore ISD board held their regular
June meeting on Monday June 28th at 6:00
p.m. The meeting was preceded at 5:00
p.m. with a planning session to discuss
long range goals for the district.
