Conroe High School Tiger Tracks
October 1, 2023
Tiger Families,
We hope that you all had a great weekend! This week is the final week of the first marking period. This is a reminder that all assignments need to be turned in and submitted by the end of the day on Thursday. Students can lose or gain U.I.L. eligibility with this marking period grade. Remember there is no school for students on Friday, October 6th and Monday, October 9th. Enjoy your four-day weekend! Here are a few other updates and reminders:
Picture Day - Picture Day is coming. See the graphic below for the date your student will be taking pictures!
Class of 2024 - This is just a reminder that the FAFSA does not open on October 1. It will open in December 2023. If you complete the current FAFSA application, it will be for the wrong year and you will have to fill it out again in December. We don't want that to happen.
Remember, we will have a Financial Aid Information meeting on October 28, 9:00-10:00am in the auditorium. We will go over all forms of financial aid and talk about the changes being made to the new FAFSA opening in December.
Student IDs-SMART Tag - All students grades 9-12 are required to wear their ID while on campus. All students new to Conroe High School will receive their initial ID and do not need to bring their ID from their previous campus. Students who need a replacement ID because they lost their original will be charged $5. Temporary IDs will be $1.
Attendance Matters - Our Attendance Rate for last week was 93%. It is important that your child is in class each day unless they are ill. In the event your child does miss school, please be sure to email our attendance office. Also, please remind your child to get with their teacher about any work they missed.

Important Information For Freshmen
CHS9 Car Riders:
If you bring your student to school by vehicle, then please remember that the traffic loop in front of the Ninth Grade Campus contains two lanes. Vehicles can utilize the inside lane (left lane) to help alleviate traffic. When our duty personnel see students getting out of the vehicle from the left lane, we will stop traffic in the right lane allowing your student to cross safely. Please remind your student to check traffic before getting out of the vehicle. Parents, please continue to drive slowly and safely in the student drop-off area. We appreciate your attention to safety and patience every day.
