Conroe High School Tiger Tracks
August 15, 2020
Hello Conroe Tiger Families,
Thank you so much for a great first week of school! We know there were some log-on issues and some tech issues but we are so proud of the hard work and efforts from our Conroe Tiger students and staff! It was incredibly quiet in our halls but we enjoyed going around and hearing chatter from the classrooms as teachers engaged with students on Zoom.
Please remind your child the importance of staying on top of their work. We need to make sure all students understand grades and attendance are two different things. Attendance is needed to earn credit in the class while your grade applies to passing the class. Some students believe they are going to get by with logging in alone; however in order to be successful students do need to log in during their class time and engage with direct teacher instruction. Each student needs to access Canvas daily and submit the required assignments.
We have included a student-parent version of our bell schedule below along with our August Calendar. Here are a few additional reminders:
Canvas - We know many of you are receiving a large amount of emails from Canvas! Please know many of them are automatic messages being sent from Canvas based on your notification settings. Below you will find information on how to change your settings! We have also included reminders for students about how to log in!
Ramp Up - We will begin our Ramp Up process next week with a small groups of students. Our staff has been in communication with the families of students who are scheduled to begin next week. Our largest group during the Ramp Up process will begin the week of August 31st. Please be sure to see our Ramp Up Plan for additional information.
Meals Distribution - On Tuesdays and Thursdays breakfast and lunch meals will be available curbside at every campus for students to purchase or free to students who qualify.
Multiple meals will be distributed on pick up days. Tuesday: 2 breakfast meals/ 2 lunch meals Thursday: 3 breakfast meals/ 3 lunch meals
A student meal card located in Parent Access must be presented to scan and identify the student when meals are picked up.
This can be printed on paper or presented electronically on a phone.
No change will be made for cash transactions- any change will be applied to student's meal account. Pre-payments can be made at www.myschoolbucks.com .
Meal prices and the free and reduced meal application are available on the child nutrition website. https://www.conroeisd.net/department/child-nutrition/ .
The drop date for students to use Free and Reduced benefits from last year is September 24. After this, students will be a "paid status" until a new application is completed.
Parents can go online to complete a Free and Reduced application for the 20-21 school year. www.myschoolapps.com
We appreciate your patience and support! Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns: contactchs@conroeisd.net or contactchs9@conroeisd.net. We are here to help and support our Conroe Tiger Families any way we can!
