Fort Worth ISD is partnering with Urgent Care Kids to offer our families telehealth services. Students can see a Texas pediatrician via computer, smartphone or tablet for colds, the flu, ear pain, sinus or allergy issues, and COVID-19 screening/testing. Register at https://virtualcarefamilies.com/schoolmed/.

Breakfast and lunch will continue to be provided for those children who need it.

Our teachers and staff are going above and beyond during this time and much of their hard work is behind the scenes. We want to recognize our RHE teachers and staff for all the wonderful ways they're helping us "Keep Our Stride"! We are asking YOU (parents, friends, other teachers, and staff) to help us nominate Magnificent Mustangs - Teacher & Staff Version where they'll be highlighted in the Pony Post and PTA Facebook group! Please submit nominations to brooke@safecarepartners.net 

The Virtual Learning Support page is the go-to resource for students and parents. Whether you're getting started using a digital device or online application for the first time or need to learn more about how to use a resource, you'll find the support you need here. Our Quick Reference Guides (QRGs) were designed to give you clear, step-by-step directions for completing common tasks within various applications.  In addition to our QRGs, you will find helpful videos that walk you through the applications used for virtual learning.  On this page, we've compiled information and resources specifically for students and parents to help with common learning tools like Google Classroom, Google Meet, Seesaw, ClassLink, and much more. For students who have received a district-issued device, we have several resources available to help parents and students with technical issues. Our goal is to ensure that parents and students have the knowledge and technology skills needed for success during virtual learning. 

Many of you have reached out and asked what you can do after you are registered for school. Here are some options!
