Sales Tax Holiday<br />Aug. 8 - 10, 2014</h1>
This year’s Sales Tax Holiday is Aug. 8 - 10. As in previous years, the law exempts most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks priced under $100 from sales and use taxes, which could save shoppers about $8 on every $100 they spend.<br />
Subject to the criteria explained below, all sales of qualifying items made during the holiday period qualify for the exemption, including items sold online, or by telephone or mail. Lay-away plans can be used again this year to take advantage of the sales tax holiday.<br />
The dates for the sales tax holiday are set by the Legislature.<br />
<div id="links">
<h2>
The “Fine Print” – important information you should know about this tax-saving event</h2>
<div style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 206, 200); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; padding: 2px 0px;">
</div>
<h3 class="acc_trigger">
<a href="http://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxpubs/taxholiday/d/#">Clothing and Footwear</a></h3>
<div class="container" style="display: none;">
Retailers are not required to collect state and local sales or use tax on most footwear and clothing that are sold for less than $100 during the holiday. Exemption certificates are not required. The exemption applies to each eligible item that sells for less than $100, regardless of how many items are sold on the same invoice to a customer. For example, if a customer purchases two shirts for $80 each, then both items qualify for the exemption, even though the customer's total purchase price ($160) exceeds $99.99.<br />
The exemption does not apply to the first $99.99 of an otherwise eligible item that sells for more than $99.99. For example, if a customer purchases a pair of pants that costs $110, then sales tax is due on the entire $110.<br />
The exemption also does not apply to sales of special clothing or footwear that the manufacturer primarily designed for athletic activity or protective use and that is not normally worn except when used for the athletic activity or protective use for which the manufacturer designed the article. For example, golf cleats and football pads are primarily designed for athletic activity or protective use and are not normally worn except for those purposes; they do not qualify for the exemption. Tennis shoes, jogging suits and swimsuits, however, are commonly worn for purposes other than athletic activity and thus qualify for the exemption.<br />
The sales tax holiday exemption does not extend to rental of clothing or footwear; nor does it apply to alteration (including embroidery) or cleaning services performed on clothes and shoes. Additionally, tax is due on sales of accessories, including jewelry, handbags, purses, briefcases, luggage, umbrellas, wallets, watches and similar items.</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
</div>
<h3 class="acc_trigger">
<a href="http://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxpubs/taxholiday/d/#">Backpacks</a></h3>
<div class="container" style="display: none;">
Backpacks priced under $100 sold for use by elementary and secondary students are exempt during the sales tax holiday. A backpack is a pack with straps one wears on the back. The exemption includes backpacks with wheels, provided they can also be worn on the back like a traditional backpack, and messenger bags.<br />
The exemption does not include items that are reasonably defined as luggage, briefcases, athletic/duffle/gym bags, computer bags, purses or framed backpacks. Ten or fewer backpacks can be purchased tax-free at one time without providing an exemption certificate to the seller.</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
</div>
<h3 class="acc_trigger">
<a href="http://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxpubs/taxholiday/d/#">School Supplies</a></h3>
<div class="container" style="display: none;">
Texas families also get a sales tax break on most school supplies priced at less than $100 purchased for use by a student in an elementary or secondary school.<br />
<h3>
Purchases of School Supplies Using a Business Account</h3>
Persons buying qualifying school supplies during the holiday are not required to provide an exemption certificate – with one exception. If the purchaser is buying the items under a business account, the retailer must obtain an exemption certificate from the purchaser certifying that the items are purchased for use by an elementary or secondary school student. "Under a business account" means the purchaser is using a business credit card or business check rather than a personal credit card or personal check; being billed under a business account maintained at the retailer; or is using a business membership at a retailer that is membership based.</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
</div>
<h3 class="acc_trigger">
<a href="http://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxpubs/taxholiday/d/#">Layaways and Rainchecks</a></h3>
<div class="container" style="display: none;">
<h3>
Layaways</h3>
A sale of a qualifying item under a layaway plan qualifies for exemption if the customer places the qualifying merchandise on layaway during the holiday or makes the final payment during the holiday. See <a href="http://info.sos.state.tx.us/pls/pub/readtac$ext.TacPage?sl=R&app=9&p_dir=&p_rloc=&p_tloc=&p_ploc=&pg=1&p_tac=&ti=34&pt=1&ch=3&rl=365">Rule 3.365(i)</a>.<br />
<h3>
Rainchecks</h3>
Eligible items that customers purchase during the holiday with use of a rain check qualify for the exemption regardless of when the rain check was issued. However, issuance of a rain check by a seller during the holiday period will not qualify an eligible item for the exemption if the item is actually purchased after the holiday is over even if the rain check is presented at the time of purchase. See <a href="http://info.sos.state.tx.us/pls/pub/readtac$ext.TacPage?sl=R&app=9&p_dir=&p_rloc=&p_tloc=&p_ploc=&pg=1&p_tac=&ti=34&pt=1&ch=3&rl=365">Rule 3.365(j)</a>.</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
</div>
<h3 class="acc_trigger">
<a href="http://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxpubs/taxholiday/d/#">Prohibited Advertising</a></h3>
<div class="container" style="display: none;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="adv"></a> <em><strong>A word of caution</strong></em>: If you sell items that do not qualify for the exemption, you may not advertise or promise that you will pay your customers' sales tax. You are prohibited from advertising that you will not collect sales tax on items that do not qualify, but you may advertise that tax is included in the sales price of the taxable items that you sell. See <a href="http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/TX/htm/TX.151.htm#151.704">Tax Code Section 151.704</a> for more information.</div>

Here are 3 things that all parents must remember to ensure the safety of our kids. Please know that the purpose of our drop off procedures in place to ensure the following.<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>The Safety of All Kids - We do not want a single child hurt or injured.</li>
<li>The Efficiency of the Process - We want to help you drop your child off in a quick manner.</li>
</ol>
<h3>
<u>
The 3 Rules for Morning Drop-Off</u></h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h4>
1. The Front of the School (Parent Drop Off)</h4>
<div>
Students may only be dropped off from their car in front of the school under the awning. This is the only place that parents can let their kids out of the car to walk into school alone. This drop area is monitored by school personnel.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h4>
2. The Gravel Parking Lot is for Parents Walking their Children to School</h4>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; text-align: right;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-jQ7hN_n8j18/Uxc58vz61VI/AAAAAAAAA9w/tlOTMqx8Tlo/s640/blogger-image-203108679.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-jQ7hN_n8j18/Uxc58vz61VI/AAAAAAAAA9w/tlOTMqx8Tlo/s320/blogger-image-203108679.jpg" width="240" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The Gravel Parking Lot is NOT a place to drop<br />
kids off at school. Parents who drive through<br />
the gravel lot are required to walk their child<br />
up to the building.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
The gravel parking lot is reserved only for parents who want to walk their child into school. <b><u>This is NOT a second drop off location</u></b>. Parents who use the gravel lot are required to walk their children across the cross walk and up to the building where duty personnel can take over the supervision of your child. Children are not allowed to walk across the cross walk or up the sidewalk alone. <b> Parents must accompany children across the crosswalk and up the sidewalk to Pole F.</b><br />
<br /></div>
<h4>
3. The Earliest You May Drop Off Kids...</h4>
<div>
<b>The earliest that parents can drop children off at school is 7:20</b>. Parents may not drop off children before 7:20. At 7:20, school personnel will open the doors, and you may let your children out of your car at that time.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
<u>
Safety is our 1st Priority</u></h3>
<div>
At Gilmer Elementary School, our first priority is to guarantee a safe environment for every child. In order to ensure this priority is attained, we need all parents to follow our morning drop off procedures, so that we can ensure the safety of every child.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to give us a call. We appreciate your continued support and teamwork.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sincerely,</div>
<div>
John Wink, Principal</div>

<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Emily Branch attended the Abydos Conference this past week, and we are happy to announce that she received the Sara B. Reuter Promising Young Teacher's Award. This award is given to a young </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">teacher that must be a trainee or trainer with no more than 7 years of </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">teaching experience and is under 30. The teacher must have successful </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">teaching experience and exemplify the traits that we would like to see in </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">all teachers. The award is given to encourage young teachers to continue </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">in the profession as well as recognize them for their work in education.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Sigrid Yates nominated Emily Branch for this award after observing her in the classroom and seeing how she </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">interacted with the students. Anytime Sigrid has spoken with Emily, she has </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">been very positive about her grade level, about the campus </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">administrators, and about the growth opportunities Gilmer has provided </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">her. Emily is a continuous learner as demonstrated by accepting the </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">challenge of the Abydos training while simultaneously working on her M. </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Ed. In Curriculum and Instruction. She will be able to use the $750 award as she chooses.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">It is just a small gift that Sara's husband gives because Sara worked </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">with young teachers in Duncanville ISD to keep them in the profession and </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">to mentor them. Mentoring young teachers was Sara's passion, and she was</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">a strong trainer. Sara's career was cut short by a debilitating disease</span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">, but she went to work every day while her disease progressed </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">rapidly. She was on a walker at the Abydos Conference before she died that </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">summer. She was only about 40 when she died. Her husband, a superintendent from another district, wanted to </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">continue Sara's legacy of helping young teachers. This was how the award began.</span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> Since Sara was a trainer for 11 years, he created the award to be given for 11 years.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: x-large;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: x-large;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">We are so proud of Emily for her hard work and dedication to the students and staff of Gilmer Elementary. She takes on the yearbook all by herself and does an amazing job. She lead the 2nd grade ELA team and also does an outstanding job facilitating there. Emily is a fantastic role model and goes above and beyond for our campus. Please join me in congratulating her for receiving this prestigious honor.</span></div>

Reading is the Key</h3>
<div>
The more you read, the more you learn. Students took benchmark tests last week, and there was one connection. Students who were more fluent readers with higher comprehension made higher scores. The STAAR test will be administered this spring to 3rd and 4th graders in Reading and Math and to 4th graders in Writing. These tests are very challenging and require students to not only be good readers but also critical thinkers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Parents can help their children be proficient readers by having them read every night. Reading for 15 minutes every night builds fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. Just like riding a bicycle, playing a sport or playing a video game, the more time you spend doing reading, the better you will get at it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
Parent Communication</h3>
<div>
If you have concerns or questions about your child's reading level or performance, please contact your child's teacher. They have the most information about your child and can tell you exactly what strengths and weaknesses your child has in reading, math, writing, science and social studies. By having a frequent and open line of communication with the teacher, you and the teacher can work together to help your child improve in their learning.</div>

We finished 2013 in grand fashion with lots of great improvement in our learning and excellent parent involvement. Before we know it, the semester will end on January 17. Wow! <br />
<br />
<h3>
<u>Parent Night - Tuesday, January 14 from 6:00 - 7:30</u></h3>
<div>
All parents are invited to see the great things the kids have done in their music, art, science and social studies specials classes and meet with their child's homeroom teacher to learn what students will be learning in the spring semester. 3rd and 4th grade parents will learn important information about the STAAR test and what students will need to do to pass the tests. More information will come out next week.</div>

<h3>
<u>What do Reading Levels Mean?</u></h3>
By the end of the semester, I want to show you where students should be at this time of the year in respect to their reading level. Before you look at the table below, please know that reading growth differs from child to child. The most important thing we must consider in reference to reading is that growth is just as important as the reading level. If your child is below level, the question that must be asked is whether or not your child is making growth each six weeks.<br />

<span style="color: #1f497d;">This past Tuesday, Michael Olivas, a State
monitor for the Texas Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Division
for School Operations visited our campus. During his visit, he audited all of our cafeteria functions from food preparation all the way to the end of the line when students throw their trash away. His audit evaluates our adherence to federal and state food laws, and we are excited to report that Gilmer Elementary School received a perfect 100%.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d;">Mr. Olivas said that a perfect score is rarely given to schools. He also said that we would be receiving a congratulatory
award from Texas Department of Agriculture for having an excellent review. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d;">Congratulations to Roberta Jones, GISD Food Director, Genise Maberry, GES Cafeteria Manager and all of our cafeteria workers for their commitment and dedication to providing all students and staff the healthiest meals in the cleanest cafeteria in East Texas. Job well done!</span><br />

Stick up for what you believe. If
someone offers you drugs say “No” and walk away. Some ways to say “No” are: “No thanks”, “I don’t like it”, “It’s against
the law”, “I’ve got to go now”, “No way!”, or “My parents won’t let me”. </span></div>

what college you would like to attend.
Tonight is Halloween, and it is traditionally a night filled with lots of
fun. Here are some ideas to help you stay healthy and safe.<br>
<br>
1.
Only go trick or treating with a responsible adult. <br>
2.
Do not eat any treats until you bring them home to be examined by your parent. <br>
3.
Never go into the home of a stranger or get into their car. <br>
4.
Make sure your carry a flashlight, glow stick or have reflective tape on
your costume to make yourself more visible to cars.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

in school and keep themselves drug free.
This pledge isn’t just for a week; we must <u>always</u> make good
healthy choices and not smoke, drink alcohol, or take illegal drugs. <b>“Be
free like me.
