Hope everyone had a fun and safe Memorial Day weekend.  We have some fun highlights and a few important reminders as we enter this last (short) week of the school year!

Thank you all for a fabulous year - we'll send additional communication as appropriate throughout the summer, but certainly keep an eye out for emails at the end of summer, as we approach Meet the Teacher Night and New Student Orientations. 

Alex Sanger Preparatory is an election polling center again, however, feedback from families was heard after the last election, so important updates have been made to the polling location and logistics for community members entering to cast their ballot.  
See the excerpt from Mr. Merritt's letter home to families last week:

Key Changes for Election Day:

• New Voting Location: Voting has been moved from the front entrance hallway and auditorium to the small gym (near the cafeteria).
• Separate Entrance: Voters will enter through the back parking lot. This keeps all election traffic completely away from the front entrance and will help alleviate parking congestion on San Leandro Drive.
• Increased Monitoring: Campus-based monitors will be stationed outside the small gym throughout the day and during lunch to ensure voters do not enter school hallways or interact with students.

There will be no disruption to normal school hallway movement or our front entrance. Thank you for your continued commitment to keeping our Stallions safe. 

If you have any questions, please reach out to Joe Luedecke, Assistant Principal over safety, at jluedecke@dallasisd.org or 972.502.5816.

Sincerely,
Alex Merritt
Principal

• Students may dress formally on their ceremony day
• Parents will be admitted 10 minutes before the ceremony begins. Please plan to arrive early, as there is a high volume of arrivals.
• Park in front of the building or the teacher parking lot.
  7th Grade 11:00AM - Do Not park on the curb closest to school, as this will block traffic for early dismissal at 12:15
• ID will be required to enter the building.
• Staff will take and share a group picture at the end of the awards.
• After the ceremony concludes, parents must exit the auditorium so preparations can be made for the next ceremony and the next group of parents may enter.

We are very excited to start collecting used uniform items for our UNIFORM DRIVE 3.0!  Every summer, you have the chance to swap uniforms that no longer fit your students and get items for the upcoming school year. 

• Drop-off: May 11 - June 4
  May M-F and June M-Th
  Students can bring donated clothes to school to drop in the boxes (located just outside the auditorium doors)
• Pick-Up Events will be on June 13 and July 25 (additional details to come)

Summer Cool at Sanger starts next week - an introductory email was sent this weekend, and you can review it here if you haven't already.

Haven't signed up yet?  There's still time!  Available to PreK-8 students who were enrolled and attended a Dallas ISD school during the 2025-2026 school year.

Monday, June 1, through Thursday, June 25 (no program on Fridays). Program hours are 7:45 AM to 3:45 PM. Families may register for any DISD campus that is hosting Summer Cool. Students must have a valid DISD Student ID to enroll.

Our Site Coordinator for Sanger is Claudia Abarca. She can be reached at cabarcaflores@dallasisd.org if you have additional questions about the program.

As the school year wraps up, now is the perfect time to label items for summer camps, sports, and next school year! Support the Alex Sanger PTA with Mabel's Labels — personalized, durable labels for water bottles, lunch boxes, clothing, and more. They even have custom stamps!

The Alex Sanger PTA earns 20% back on every purchase, and labeled items are much more likely to make it back home instead of ending up in the lost and found!

Info also available on the Membership Toolkit site for future reference, under Events & Fundraising

This PTA fundraiser is a great way to save some time and help support programs at Sanger - order next year's school supplies ahead of time!  Kits are available by grade, and also for GT, TC, and other specialty classes.  Supplies are delivered to the campus in the fall!
