Upcoming Weather Event
With the uncertainty of how the weather will impact school next week, we want you to be safe and informed.
It is projected that Tuesday, January 21 that it will snow during the morning and transition to snow showers in the afternoon. The high will be 32F with winds at 10 to 20 mph. The chance of snow is 90% possibly accumulation 1 to 3 inches.
District personnel are planning in anticipation of this weather event. Channelview ISD will keep the community updated about school as warranted.
Proper precautions will help to mitigate damages to infrastructure, pets/livestock, plants, and people. Here are a few tips from meteorologist Jeff Lindner:
- Proper winterization of any exposed pipes/plumbing will be needed to prevent damage. Sprinkler systems must be shut off and properly drained. Pipes/plumbing on elevated homes must be protected from the ground to the entry point of the structure. Know where the main water shut off is in case pipes freeze or break.
- Pets/livestock will require proper shelter to protect from the cold temperatures and dangerous wind chills. Prolonged exposure to the forecasted temperatures and wind may be fatal to unprotected livestock and pets. Monitor water sources as typical sources may freeze over.
- Tropical plants/vegetation will require maximum freeze protection. Unprotected tropical vegetation will be killed and even protect vegetation will likely suffer heavy damage.
- Persons should limit outdoor exposure during the cold as wind chills will fall to dangerous levels. Utilize heating sources properly to reduce the risk of fire and carbon monoxide poisoning.

ACT/SAT Info
What is the ACT/SAT test?
Both the SAT and the ACT are nationally administered, standardized tests that help schools evaluate your application and see how prepared you are for college courses. The SAT and ACT generally cover the same topics. Both ACT and SAT scores are used for college admissions decisions and awarding merit-based scholarships. Most colleges do not prefer one test over the other. Neither the SAT nor ACT is harder than the other. Different students tend to do better on one test than the other.
