Get School Supplies

The school supply list for 2015-2016 can be accessed by clicking here. Please be sure to purchase all items needed for your student(s).

Please remember we informed you that there will be no school supply fee this year due to the process not working out efficiently for the school and economically for the families. There is a nominal supply fee for the ECC and Montessori students as we will still purchase their mats and/or notebooks this year as they can be difficult to find.
Purchase Uniforms for 1st-8th graders

The uniform for next year will remain the same with the exception that all clothing must be loose-fitting. For example, the pants worn as a part of the daily uniform with the polo shirts may not be skinny pants or leggings. Girls wearing leggings as a part of their jumper or skirt uniform are still allowed to do so. We recommend you order your student's formal uniform items right now as shipping takes time. To view this past year's uniform policy with links to order uniforms, please click here. To get free shipping from FrenchToast on orders of $75 or more, enter code QPFREE75 by June 30.
twoComplete Student Physical Exams

Please ensure your child has had a physical thus far in the year of 2015 or will be having one. If/When you take your child for a check up, please provide them with our Physical Examination form to fill out. If you cannot get this filled out because your child had his/her yearly checkup already, please instead provide us with the doctor's report stating your child is in good health or has any medical history.
Complete Hearing/Vision Tests

If your child is at least 4 years old, we need his/her passed hearing and vision test results as required by the state of Texas. There is an area at the top of the Physical Examination form for your student's doctor to fill this out, or you can provide it on a separate form provided by the doctor.
Immunize Your Student(s)

Please click here for a letter from the Texas Department of State Health Services emphasizing the immunization requirements for this year. Please be sure your child(ren) are appropriately immunized by August or provide us with exemption affidavits.
