Conroe High School Tiger Tracks
November 14, 2020
Hello Conroe Tiger Families,
Thank you for your continued compliance and cooperation regarding our Covid mitigation strategies on campus. We understand that feeling of Covid fatigue and we want our lives to return to normal. However, now is the time that we need to emphasize and recommit to our safety procedures. National, state and county positive Covid cases are on the rise. We are seeing the number of confirmed positive cases of students and staff increase as well. You can always find current Covid information using the CISD Covid Dashboard. The increase that we are seeing is directly linked to close contact with others in social and family settings outside of school. We urge our students and staff to be cautious regarding events away from campus. Simple strategies like properly wearing a mask, social distancing, and proper hygiene have proven to be effective in our campus setting. If your student is symptomatic, please keep them away from others. We are all in this together during this unprecedented time. We thank you all for your support and understanding.
A few additional updates and reminders:
Final Exams - Final exams will soon be upon us. All students, in-person and remote, will take their final exams on the scheduled day and time. Students who do not take their final exam on the scheduled day and time will receive a zero until they make up their exam when we return in January. Any student that misses an exam will need to schedule a make-up day and time with their teacher. All exams must be made up by Friday, January 22, 2021. The final exam schedule is below!
Platform Switch - The 3rd grading period begins on January 6, 2021. Parents wishing to change their child’s instructional option (Remote/Online to In-Person or In-Person to Remote/Online) for the 3rd Grading Period should contact their campus registrar or assistant principal no later than Tuesday, December 1st, by 8 AM. This will allow the campus time to make needed schedule changes. If there has been no contact from a parent/guardian, no changes will be made to the student’s instructional method.
Attendance - It is important that our in-person students are present in the building each day for every period unless they are sick. Our virtual students need to log in to each scheduled class and be active in the Canvas course. Virtual students should be active in all 7 courses on Monday, classes 1,3,5,and 7 each Tuesday and Thursday, and classes 2,4,5 and 6 each Wednesday and Friday. Please remember that 5th period meets every day. If your child is going to be absent, In-Person or Virtual, you need to be sure to contact our attendance office to clear up the unexcused absence. Remind your student to utilize the teacher’s attendance quiz button in each course. This will assist in record keeping and assist teachers in verifying course activity. Attendance and truancy notifications will continue to be sent home to both in-person and virtual students.
PTO - Please join us for our first PTO Meeting on Tuesday, November 17th a 10:00. Our meeting will be held at Conroe High School - Main Campus. You will need to wear a mask and check-in in the front office. Not able to join us, but still want to help out? Please contact Kim Parker: myvinylpassion@gmail.com.

Important Information For Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors
Remote Learners - Starting Monday, all teachers Canvas pages will have a daily attendance quiz. Remote students will now be required to complete the attendance quiz in all scheduled classes per day. We are hoping this attendance quiz will help reduce attendance discrepancies our remote students are experiencing
Parking Passes - If your child is driving to school please be sure they take care of everything they need to in order to purchase a parking pass.
Car Riders -If you drop your students off before then please know they may not be supervised. Parents that will be dropping off their students, DO NOT drop your student off on Hwy 105! You can either drop off in the front of the building or in the Moorhead Stadium Visitor Parking lot. Please plan for delays with the car rider line.
Important Information For Freshmen
Tutorials Information - At the Ninth Grade campus, students can stay for afterschool tutorials with a pass from their teacher. Tutorials are made by appointment for both in person and virtual students. Information regarding Ninth Grade Campus tutorials can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_TjkTw8wqI-lRp9X2wubwsqhI8LLl6Au/view?usp=sharing
Students that have an appointment to stay for tutorials will need to be picked up by a parent or guardian at 3:30. Students that do not have a ride will need to register for the CISD Late Bus. Please register your student for the late bus here: https://apps.conroeisd.net/AlternativeTransportation/.
Student Drop-Off - 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. Wednesdays and Fridays have more traffic in the morning. We appreciate your attention to safety and patience every day.
CHS9 Merchandise - We have Class of 2024 t-shirts and hoodies available in the front office at the Ninth Grade Campus. Please have your student stop by if they are interested in purchasing some merchandise.
