Lions for Literacy

Lions for Literacy is a program dedicated to enriching children’s love for reading. During the school year, members of the Ponder Lions varsity athletic teams will visit Ponder Elementary and read to all classes K-5.

Summer Reading Program

Over the 2022 summer, students from Ponder Elementary can read for the chance to lead the Ponder Lion Football Team onto the field at the football game on September 2nd against Fort Worth Dunbar.

One boy and one girl, with the most minutes read, will be chosen from each grade K-5 to wear a Ponder Lion Football Jersey and lead the Lions onto the football field. The top boy and girl from those 12 students will join the Lion Captains for the coin toss at the beginning of the game. All 12 students will be recognized at the game.

EZSchoolPay Available To Parents

Once again this school year parents can view purchase and credit details online for their child's cafeteria transactions via a service known as EZSchoolPay. Through this portal, parents can see the quantity and types of items students are purchasing both at breakfast and lunch as well as view their child's account balance. Additionally, parents can also choose to have a notification email sent whenever their child's account balance drops below an amount specified by the parent. Both of these services are free. As always, if a parent chooses to make deposits online, a service charge fee is incurred. For more details, view the EZSchoolPay information page.
