Dear Ride Parents,

Well, we were not expecting to end our week like this. I hope you and your loved ones are faring the bad weather conditions well. School was cancelled to day, as you can see from the news reports, there are several areas that have had devastating results form the heavy rain. Please keep these impacted families in your thoughts. It will be a long and difficult recovery for many of them. And many of them are our Conroe ISD family!

AS you know, our Field Day Fun was cancelled. We rescheduled it for this Friday, May 10th. Hopefully, you will still be able to volunteer and help the kids have a great time! If you are now available to volunteer (because of the new date), we have room for you!

A study published in JAMA Pediatrics found a significant association between high social media use and increased odds of depression symptoms in adolescents.

Nomination window for summer gifted and talented testing is April 1st - April 30th.. This testing is for students that are new to Ride in 2023- 2024 school year and did not have an opportunity to be nominated by parent or teacher for Spring Testing. Please stop by the front office to pick up a nomination form.

Due to limited seating in the cafeteria, we are offering two options for lunch signups. You will have the opportunity to sign up to eat in the cafeteria with your child or outside in our gazebo/picnic table area. You will not be able to change locations after signup is complete. If you sign up to eat outside and it rains, you will be unable to move into the building due to limited seating. You may sign up for another day/time.

Each slot is available for two adults and the child you are eating lunch with..

Please see the schedule below for designated grade level lunch visitor’s days. Make sure that you sign up under the correct time slot for your child’s lunchtime. Each student may have two visitors every 3-4 weeks.This ensures every parent has an opportunity to sign up. Remember to bring a valid id when you visit the building.

Due to limited seating in the cafeteria, we are asking all parents with small children to eat outside in the gazebo area.
