in earning the national privacy distinction. With 91 campuses and more<br />

than 116,000 students, CFISD is the second-largest school district among<br />

those awarded the TLE Seal.<br />

According to CoSN, school districts receiving the TLE Seal demonstrated<br />

strong student data privacy practices in the following areas:<br />

• Leadership, by providing the guidance, frameworks and resources<br />

to direct the use and governance of student data in a manner that is<br />

transparent to all stakeholders.<br />

• Business, by establishing vetting processes and contracts for technology<br />

providers that, at minimum, address applicable compliance with laws<br />

while supporting innovation.<br />

• Data security, by implementing strong data protection practices across<br />

all media and auditing regularly to maintain high thresholds over time.<br />

• Professional development, by requiring school staff to conduct privacy<br />

and security training and offering related resources to all stakeholders in<br />

the community.<br />

• Classroom, by implementing educational procedures and processes<br />

to ensure transparency and build privacy knowledge while advancing<br />

curricular goals.<br />

As TLE Seal recipients, the designated school districts will be required to<br />

maintain their commitment to improving student data privacy practices<br />

and reapply for the designation every two years. Developed for K-12<br />

school systems of all governance structures, the TLE Seal was formed<br />

through a collective effort from school system leaders nationwide and<br />

program partners. Their input identified steps schools should take in<br />

addition to regulatory compliance to help ensure student data privacy<br />

and security.<br />

LEADING MEDICINE<br />

STARTS WITH<br />

HOUSTON METHODIST<br />

PRIMARY CARE<br />

MARCH GARDENING TIPS<br />

VEGETABLES<br />

• Plant vegetables such as tomatoes, sweet corn and snap beans<br />

and pepper, as well as cucumbers, lima or butter beans, canta<br />

loupe, okra (if the soil has warmed sufficiently - 70 degrees F.<br />

or higher), southern peas, pumpkin, squash, peanuts and<br />

watermelon.<br />

At Houston Methodist Primary Care Group,<br />

your family is at the center of all we do. From<br />

regular checkups to more complex concerns,<br />

our board-certified physicians provide the<br />

compassionate care you need as well as access<br />

to our leading network of world-class specialists.<br />

Schedule today.<br />

or call 713.394.6638.<br />

LAWN<br />

• Re-sod or replant as needed with turfgrasses adapted to this<br />

part of Texas and suited to the planting location (shade or sun).<br />

• When resodding semi-shaded areas with St. Augustine,<br />

use ONLY the variety Floratam for best pest resistance.<br />

See www.plantanswers.com/grass.htm.<br />

TREES AND SHRUBS<br />

• Plant container-grown trees and shrubs as soon as possible.<br />

In shady areas, where grass is difficult to grow, consider planting<br />

a dependable groundcover such as English ivy, Asian jasmine,<br />

vinca or one of the prostrate junipers.<br />

• Prune spring flowering and evergreen shrubs during early <strong>March</strong>.<br />

However, be sure to prune spring flowering shrubs after they<br />

have bloomed.<br />

• Fertilize with a pre-plant application of a slow-release fertilizer<br />

analysis such as 19 - 5 - 9 at the rate of 3 pounds per 100 square<br />

feet of garden planting area. Early <strong>March</strong> is the ideal time to<br />

fertilize landscape plants because you give them food just<br />

before the spring growing season starts.<br />
