Clear Creek ISD Public School Information Brought to you by www.TexasExplorer.com
Clear Creek Independent School District The Clear Creek Independent School District was formed in 1948 through consolidation of the schools in League City, Seabrook, Webster and Kemah. At the time the schools were unified, there were fewer than 1,000 students in four schools. In 2003, the District enrollment is more than 32,500 students in 34 schools. The District also includes parts of Friendswood and Houston. All indicators point to a continuing population increase in the school district well into the future. The Clear Creek Independent School District is home to the NASA/Johnson Space Center; the numerous engineering and technical organizations which support the space industry; the fishing and recreational areas of Galveston Bay; chemical and energy resource industries; the University of Houston-Clear Lake; and the many businesses which serve a diverse suburban population. Clear Creek ISD has approximately 32,000 students in 34 schools on 36 campuses as of May 2003. The District enrollment is increasing by approximately 1,000 students annually. Clear Creek ISD is the 28th largest of the 1,046 school districts in Texas. |

| Riding the Bus
Safety Tips 1.Have a safe place to wait for your bus, away from traffic and the street. 2. Stay away from the bus until it comes to a complete stop and the driver signals you to enter. 3. When being dropped off, exit the bus and walk ten giant steps away from the bus. Keep a safe distance between you and the bus. Also, remember that the bus driver can see you best when you are back away from the bus. 4. Use the handrail to enter and exit the bus. 5. Stay away from the bus until the driver gives his/her signal that it's okay to approach. 6. Be aware of the street traffic around you. Drivers are required to follow certain rules of the road concerning buses, however, not all do. Protect yourself and watch out! |
Walking and
Biking to School 1. Mind all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard - never cross the street against a light, even if you don't see any traffic. 2. Walk your bike through intersections. 3. Walk with a buddy. 4. Wear reflective material, it makes you more visible to street traffic. Riding in a Car 1. You might have heard before that most traffic crashes occur close to home, they do. 2. Safety belts are the best form of protection passengers have in the event of a crash. 3. You are four times more likely to be seriously injured or killed if ejected from the vehicle in a crash. Everyone needs to be buckled up properly. That means older kids in seat belts, younger kids in booster seats and little kids in child safety seats. |
BACKPACK SAFETY Choosing the right backpack. Look for the following:
Wide, padded shoulder straps - Narrow straps can dig into shoulders.
This can cause pain and restrict circulation.
Padded back - A padded back protects against sharp edges on objects
inside the pack and increases comfort.
To prevent injury when using a backpack, do the following: Pack light. The backpack should never weigh more than 10 to 20 percent of the student's body weight. Always use both shoulder straps. Slinging a backpack over one shoulder can strain muscles. Wearing a backpack on one shoulder may increase curvature of the spine. Organize the backpack to use all of its compartments. Pack heavier items closest to the center of the back. Use a rolling backpack. This type of backpack may be a good choice for students who must tote a heavy load. Remember that rolling backpacks still must be carried upstairs. And they may be difficult to roll in snow. |
CHECKLIST FOR THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
Is your child registered? When is the first day of school? What time
does school start?
What time is lunch? Can your child buy it at school, and how much will
it cost? Will she need a snack?
Have you filled out all the health forms or emergency contact forms that
have been sent home?
Have any new health problems developed in your child over the summer
that will affect her school day? Does the school nurse know about this
condition, or is an appointment set up to discuss it?
If your child needs to take medication at school on the first day, have
arrangements been made for this?
Does your youngster know where she is going after school (e.g., home,
babysitter)? Does she know how she will get there? If you will not be
there when she arrives, does she know who will be responsible for her,
what the rules are, and how to get help in an emergency?
