New Patio Cover
Our new patio cover was installed. A huge shoutout to PTO for making this happen for the students here at Clark. We are so excited about it and in the summer the shade will come in handy for our kids during recess!
Honor Band
Have you heard that Clark had 24 students make the CISD Honor Band? There are a little over 100 members in the band, that means Clark makes up almost 25% of the band. What a great accomplishment! Congratulations to each of these students, but also shout - out our band directors - Mr. Butler, Mrs. Kasperek, and Mrs. Sanchez for all their hard work with these students.
Honor Orchestra
Shout out to students who made the CISD Honor Orchestra! We had the 3rd most students make it in the district out of 16 schools. That concert will be January 20th at McC. We are so very proud of everyone who participated in the contest. Also thanks to Mr. Norwood for all he has done to help the students be successful!

Save the Date
Save the date for the Clark Family Fiesta!
One of our priorities as a campus and a community is to ensure the health and safety of all students. While we can monitor and support all students when they are at school with us, needs may arise during after school hours. Please feel free to reach out via email or leave a voicemail, and we will address the concerns when we return to campus the following day. If the situation requires immediate attention, such as a concern for the physical safety of a child, please use the Kid Chat line or Anonymous Alerts. Immediate action will be taken by the Conroe ISD police department.
December is a BUSY month at Clark for the PTO. We want to make the last month of 2023 is a great one and make sure our teachers, staff and students feel appreciated and supported! With that being said, we are pleased to have our December PTO Newsletter available for you and this month it is PACKED with information, so we hope you take a few minutes to read this month's issue. You'll find: Upcoming 6th Annual Family Fiesta sponsorship opportunity information, NEW house merchandise ordering information, details on our next spirit event at Chick-fil-A, sign up link for the Great Cookie Exchange and MORE! We also share details and more information frequently on our Clark PTO Facebook page and would love for you to follow us there: https://www.facebook.com/ClarkIntermediatePTO!

The Parent Hub APP
In an effort to make sure you have all the latest and most up-to-date information from Clark, we have built the Clark Parent Hub. This app is a one stop shop for "all things Clark!" We have included two links for your information, the first link is a brief video Introducing you to the Parent Hub. It is about 5 minutes in length. The second link is a flyer version of the directions. Additionally, I also have linked the pdf versions for Androids and iPhones.
We hope this app helps you stay connected to Clark. If you have any trouble with the app feel free to reach out to us at clark@conroeisd.net and someone will get back to you.
Many Thanks!
Thank you for your support in the recent election! Conroe ISD voters turned out to pass three of the four propositions in Bond 2023. The three propositions total $1.973 billion, 98.8% of the funds in Bond 2023, and will have a two-cent impact on the tax rate. Updates will be shared on social media, in Board Meetings and posted to conroeisd.net/bond. We will also share campus-specific project updates in our newsletters. We are so excited about the great things to come!
