Back to School Information

We look forward to meeting all of you soon.  We ask that you please bring all school supplies with you to meet the teacher, so we can get the rooms all set up for the first day.  Thanks

General Info

• COMMUNICATION: We have a new GCISD administrative regulation governing our electronic communication with students. At Cannon, we are implementing a new practice with our CAN parents by requesting If you or your child need to communicate with your teacher, please use email, place a phone call to the school, or talk face-to-face. The teachers have been instructed to not share their personal cell phone numbers. This is to protect all parties involved.
• BRING A DRIVER'S LICENSE EACH TIME YOU VISIT: All visitors must enter the main entrance from the front of the building. There will be no permitted access from any other exterior door. All visitors will need to bring their driver's license to scan each time they come to visit the school. If you have anyone you are bringing with you to Cannon, such as grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc., please inform them to bring their driver's license. The front office staff will assist visitors with the scanning in our Raptor system.
• As we get close to the start of school, it's important; we make sure your students have all the supplies and tools needed to be successful. If your child has a district-issued iPad/Chromebook or laptop, now is the time to look it over.
  Most common things to look for when checking out your student's devices:
  1. Cracked or damaged screen
  2. Missing keys
  3. Lost chargers
  Remember for district IPads crack screens while in the protective district case is free* to repair.
  GCISD technology provides summer repair services, so act now to help eliminate any lost instructional time for device repairs at the start of school. Click the link below for information on summer device repair.

• Parents! You can now download myschoolbucks at the apple or android store on your smart device. You can make online prepayments and view your child's transactions.
  In addition to accepting cash and checks for school meals, GCISD offers parents the option of making online credit card payments for student meals through myschoolbucks.com. To set up an account, download the Parent Guide.
• To better serve our students, GCISD technology has migrated all Student logins into Skyward to match their network logins. Students will no longer need to remember a separate login when trying to access Skyward. As a reminder, please encourage students to use Classlink to login. By using Classlink students will get instant access into all their district resources without having to remember passwords or links.
