From the Superintendent

     Sweeny residents place a high priority on education as a means of ensuring all students at every grade level receive the proper foundation and sequence of essential knowledge and skills to be college ready or be ready to go into the skilled workforce.

CSCOPE PARENT PORTAL
We have added an online parent portal where parents can go to learn more about the components of our CSCOPE curriculum.  Currently, there are three videos (one each on vertical alignment, the IFD, and the 5 E model), helpful websites for parents in each content area, and access to the concepts and key understandings for every unit in each content area at each grade level (just click on the subject and grade level from the drop-down list).

Free Content Filtering for Home
 
While at school, Internet filtering technology allows children to access the best of the Internet while being shielded from the worst. Lightspeed Systems, the makers of Lightspeed Guide, is proud to be part of that shield of protection for more than 2,000 school districts throughout the United States, (including Sweeny ISD) and beyond.
Want to have that same protection at home?  Install the Lightspeed Guide on your home computers and laptops. This easy-to-install software works with both PCs and Macs using any major web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox).
  • You can be protecting your family from inappropriate content in just five minutes.
  • Reports on your children’s web activities can be delivered by the next day! So you’ll know what they were blocked from seeing as well as everything they were able to access.
This free software is supported via email and FAQ only.
