HOW TO CHANGE COURSES IN COURSE REQUESTS

Once your student has met with their counselor, the courses are “frozen” in the Naviance system. After your student’s meeting with the counselor, changing the courses in Naviance DO NOT change the courses in the system. The only way that a requested course can be changed in the student’s requests for next school year is to make an official request online. Your student will need to complete the form included here or visit the TWHS Grade Level Office to scan a QR Code to make the request. Your counselor will review the course change request and contact your student once it has been changed or why it cannot be changed.

The deadline to make the request to change a course is April 1, 2025.

Dual Credit Important Information

Will your student sign up for Dual Credit Courses for the 25-26 School Year? Here are the steps to becoming a dual credit student, as outlined on the TWHS Dual Credit Website: https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/home . Even if your student has not yet met with their counselor, they can begin to complete the following steps.

Step 1: Are you a new or returning dual credit student?

https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-1-new-or-returning

Step 2: If you are a new dual credit student, complete the apply Texas application & set up your Lone Star College account and forward your emails. If you are not new to dual credit, proceed to step 3.

https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-2-apply-to-lone-star

Step 3: Do you have qualifying test scores either through SAT (https://www.collegeboard.org/), ACT (https://my.act.org/account/signin?location=https://my.act.org), or the TSIA2? (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeyVV6Xm1q_rkY9fl4N9G-nsKXbZMd6Hha88hunqVKSkJmScA/viewform)

https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-3-qualifying-test-scores

Step 4: Submitting the dual credit google form (including uploading your dual credit paperwork and qualifying test scores). This step can not be completed UNTIL the student obtains the qualifying test scores. https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-4-submitting-dc-paperwork

The last and final step (https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-5-making-payments) will not occur until May. Your student’s counselor will be sending out another email with payment instructions once students have been enrolled in their dual credit courses for the fall by Lone Star College. This typically happens mid May. The deadline to have Steps 1-4 completed is April 11, 2025. We only have a certain number of seats available for several of the dual credit classes, and they are assigned on a first come, first served basis.

FOREIGN LANGUAGE: TWHS offers a multitude of languages, including German, French, Chinese, and Japanese. As students decide which language to choose, there are a few things to keep in mind. First and foremost, students should make sure that they choose the language and culture that truly interests them. They will be spending a lot of time in their foreign language classroom, and they might as well enjoy it while they learn. Secondly, they should keep their own marketability in mind. Which language will make them stand out to future employers? See below for more information. German, French, Chinese, and Japanese at TWHS

This is a reminder that all medications that are given at school must be signed in to the clinic by a parent or guardian, even if the student is 18 or older. We do not have any stock medications; they all must be provided from home each school year. That includes cough drops, headache medication, antacids, and antibiotic ointment. There is a form in the clinic that you complete to give us permission to administer that medication, then we count and sign off on the medication in front of you. This is a district-wide policy, and is done to maintain the safety of our students and staff.

District guidelines for checking in medications

• Over-the-counter medication dosage must not exceed the dose recommendation listed on the bottle. Exception: If your physician, dentist, or orthodontist has directed a certain dosage to be given that is greater than that recommended on the bottle, a written order will need to be included with the written permission from the parent.
• Medications must be in their original container, and unexpired.
• The use of “sample” medication from the physician, dentist, or orthodontist must have signed written instructions from that doctor accompanied by the parent’s written permission.
• No more than a ninety (90) day supply of a prescription medication may be checked in at one time.
• No more than a thirty (30) day supply of a nonprescription medication, to be used “as needed”, may be checked in at one time. We do not have room to store Costco-sized bottles.
• All prescription and nonprescription medications must be labeled in English.
• All prescription medications must be prescribed by an authorized licensed healthcare provider in Texas. Medications prescribed by authorized licensed healthcare providers in other US states may be accepted for no longer than 45 calendar days.

If your student has an Epi-pen, inhaler, or diabetic supplies prescribed to them, there are forms that need to be signed by a doctor and parent each school year that give them permission to carry and self-administer those medications. Those forms can be found here: https://twhs.conroeisd.net/departments/department-home/clinic/

If you are aware that your student will be going on a field trip and will need to have scheduled medication administered by a staff member, or carry emergency medications while they are on the trip, please contact the clinic for guidance. You can reach Alana Ansley at the Senior Campus at 936-709-1076 or aransley@conroeisd.net, and Erica Falcon at the 9th Grade Campus at 832-592-8209 or efalcon@conroeisd.net. Both nurses are available in the clinic from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on school days.

FINAL EXAM MAKE UPS: If you are absent during Final Exams in May and need to make up an exam in the summer, the deadline to make up a final exam is Thursday, June 26, 2025. Contact information will be provided soon.

AP TESTING: Exam fees for Spring-semester-only AP courses (Psychology, Human Geography, Economics, Government) have been added to student school cash online accounts. If you pre-paid for Spring semester courses at the November 7 deadline, you do not need to pay again.

Final deadline for ALL AP exam payments and registration is 2 p.m. February 28, 2025.

All fall semester, year-long, and exam-only courses will incur a $40 late fee if paid at this time. Please contact Ms. Braun if you need to make a late payment. LBraun@conroeisd.net

ATTENDANCE: To report an absence, use the Student Absence Reporting APP or call:

9th Grade: 832-592-8025

10th Grade: 936-709-1236

11th Grade: 936-709-1233

12th Grade: 936-709-1234

Early Releases: If your student needs to leave early, please send them with a note to be delivered to the Attendance office before school. Doing so will ensure that the check-out process will be as quick and efficient as possible. There are only early releases before 2:00 p.m. Please feel free to call the Attendance office if you have any questions or concerns. We are happy to help!

YEARBOOK: TWHS 2025 Yearbook may still be purchased at jostens.com. Don't let your student leave school without one.

PARENT ACCESS CENTER TRANSITION TO HOME ACCESS CENTER: Home Access Center (HAC) will go live on January 21 and operate alongside the Parent Access Center (PAC) until Spring Break. (PAC will be decommissioned within the two weeks after March 17). During this transition, parents will have access to both applications. As HAC launches, PAC will notify users that HAC is now online and that student information in HAC will be updated in real-time. To prepare for HAC's replacement of PAC, documentation for parents and staff will be available in the Knowledge Base (https://kb.conroeisd.net) by January 18.

SCHOOL CASH ONLINE: Attention Parents: Please be sure to check your child's School Cash Online account frequently. The website is www.conroeisd.schoolcashonline.com. Fees are added throughout the year for various activities. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the fees charged to your child, please contact the classroom teacher or club sponsor. Failure to pay fees listed as "required" or "overdue" may result in a student not being permitted to participate in some extracurricular activities. If you need assistance logging in to School Cash Online or adding and viewing your child's account, please visit schoolcashonline.com/Home/Support and view the resources available to help.

ABSENT REPORTING APP: In an effort to make things easier for our families, CISD is launching an app to help you report your student's absences to our school when they are out. Documentation such as doctor's notes will still need to be submitted to our campus attendance office, but we are excited about the convenience of this new app. You will access it through the Parent Portal. The directions are included in the link. https://kb.conroeisd.net/kb/absence-reporting-system-app-parent-directions
