COVID-19/Quarantine/Extended Absence
Make sure to notify teachers and the campus nurse if your scholar has been exposed, tested positive, quarantined, or has an extended absence due to medical needs. If your scholar is under doctor's care for any reason, please share that documentation with our nurse. We want to make sure your scholar is marked appropriately for attendance and receives support for missing assignments.

*Make sure scholars bring a bottle of water or a reusable water bottle. We have bottle stations in the building for scholars to use for reusable bottles. We are grateful for the support.
I appreciate your commitment to your scholar's education.

TECHNOLOGY CORNER

The district's mobile app is the most effective tool for parents, scholars, staff, and other community members to gain immediate access to critical information, including school closings, COVID-19 updates, weather notices, and much more. Since the app is designed specifically for CHISD, it also extends our district brand through the iTunes® and Google Play® app stores.
