Conroe High School Tiger Tracks

November 14, 2021

Hello Tiger Families,

As we get into this week before Thanksgiving, we would like to thank you for all of your support this school year. If you would like to send a personalized thank you to one of your student’s teachers, the easiest way to do this is by creating a Teacher Achieving Excellence or T.A.E. submission. This is done by going to Parent Access Center, clicking on “Communication”, and then “Teacher/Staff Excellence”. You then have the option of selecting the teacher or staff member’s name. The message that you send will go directly to the staff member.

Remember Montgomery County Food Bank has resources available for families. If you are in need of assistance, or if you would like to help families in need, then please utilize the following link to access their resources: https://mcfoodbank.org/find-a-food-pantry-partner-agencies-conroe-tx/. Here are a few updates and reminders:

Fall Semester Final Exams: Seniors may exempt one-semester courses if they meet the requirements. Please access the exam schedule using this link: Fall Exam Schedule 2021.pdf

Student Safety - Our number one priority is to keep our students safe at Conroe High School. Please parents, remind your children they are not allowed to leave campus for lunch. If your child walks to school, please remind them to use the cross- walk at a light. If your child is a car rider, please drop them off and pick them up in the car rider line, not HWY 105 or area businesses.

CHS9 - Car Riders: Please continue to use the car rider loop in front of the building to pick up your student at CHS9. We want to be good neighbors and have good relationships with those that surround our building. Please do not pick your student up in the Social Security office parking lot or park in front of houses in the neighborhoods off Camelot.

Message from our PTO - On November 16th the PTO will be hosting a Fall Fiesta Luncheon for our teachers and staff at the Main Campus and on November 17th at the 9th Grade Campus. The PTO will provide the meat, but we need parents to bring the sides, drinks, and door prizes. Sign Up Here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0545aaac28a6fd0-fall

Important Information For Freshmen

CHS9 Tutorial Information :

We have teachers that remain after school until 3:30 Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Please communicate with your teacher if you would like to remain for extra assistance as you will need a pass from your teacher to remain after school. Students remaining for tutorials will be escorted by their teacher to the front of the building to be picked up at 3:30. Should you need your student to ride a late bus, then you will need to register your student for late transportation. The student will remain in the library supervised until 4:45 and then escorted to the late buses on campus.

CHS9 Car Riders:

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. We appreciate your attention to safety and patience every day.
