Hi Promise Community School Families!
As a community school, we place importance in making sure our families are connected to resources and information in our community. Throughout the school year, we share a compiled list of resources from BakerRipley and other places in Houston every 1-2 weeks. These are not always resources that the school district is directly responsible for so we share contact information so that you can follow up with the appropriate people.
This week's resources includes information on financial assistance, help with school choice applications and more.
Catholic Charities Emergency Direct Assistance Program (LINK HERE)
Catholic Charities is providing one-time $1,200 to families who live in Harris County and need help with emergency expenses such as healthcare, rent, utilities, food, internet connectivity, transportation and childcare. Application closes on November 6th.
Families Empowered Drive-Thru Application Night (LINK HERE)
If you or someone you know needs help applying for charter schools or HISD magnet schools , you are invited to the application night at BakerRipley Ripley House. Application specialists will help explain deadlines and information you need to apply to different schools.
