Welcome to the Cavalier Family
Cavaliers,
It is with great excitement and pride that I announce the hiring of our new Head Football Coach and Campus Athletic Coordinator for College Park High School. Please join me in welcoming Coach Buro to the Cavalier family.
Coach Buro comes to us from Johnson High School in San Antonio, where he has served as Associate Head Coach, Offensive Coordinator, and Quarterbacks Coach since 2022. During his time at Johnson, he helped lead the program to remarkable success, compiling a 40–9 overall record, averaging 10 wins per season, and guiding the team to back-to-back district championships and deep playoff runs, including a Regional Finalist appearance in 2025 with a 13–1 record.
Under his leadership as offensive coordinator and play caller, Johnson’s offense became one of the most productive in Texas 6A football, averaging 40.1 points per game and 7.8 yards per play, while leading the greater San Antonio area in offensive production three of the last four seasons. His offenses have set numerous school records, including 6,122 total yards in a season and 42 points per game.
Prior to Johnson, Coach Buro coached at Vandegrift High School in Austin and Brenham High School, gaining experience coaching quarterbacks and wide receivers, coordinating the passing game, and contributing to multiple district championships and playoff victories. Over the last seven seasons, the programs he has been part of have accumulated 15 playoff wins and six district championships.
Coach Buro has been recognized across the state for his leadership and coaching excellence, including being named the 2025 THSCA Region 8 – 6A Assistant Coach of the Year. He is also a respected voice in the coaching profession, having presented at major clinics such as the Hill Country Clinic, City of Palms Clinic, Nebraska Coaches Association Clinic, and the DFW Clinic.
Beyond wins and statistics, Coach Buro is deeply committed to developing student-athletes both on and off the field. As Recruiting Coordinator at Johnson, he helped 35 players earn opportunities to play college football, emphasizing academic success, character development, and preparation for life after high school athletics.
Coach Buro also brings strong Texas football roots. A former quarterback at Brenham High School, he helped lead his team to the 2009 State Championship Game before continuing his involvement in the sport as a student assistant with the Texas Longhorns football program.
What stood out throughout the hiring process was Coach Buro’s vision for building a comprehensive athletic program that develops the whole student-athlete. His approach focuses on discipline, relationships, academic accountability, strength and conditioning, and collaboration with all athletic programs on campus. He understands the importance of building strong connections with students, staff, parents, and our entire Cavalier community.
I am confident that his leadership, experience, and passion for developing young people will continue to strengthen the tradition of excellence at College Park High School.
Please join me in welcoming Coach Buro and his family to College Park and the Cavalier community. We are excited about the future of our athletic program and look forward to the positive impact he will have on our students and school.
Go Cavs!
Sincerely,
Robert MacFarlane
Principal

School Health Advisory Council (SHAC)
Parent and Student Mental Health & Digital Wellness Survey - Grades 7-12
The SHAC Mental Health Subcommittee has developed a survey for parents and students to help us better understand the mental health concerns impacting students in grades 7–12.
In accordance with SB 12, student wellbeing questionnaires require parental consent. For that reason, the student survey is embedded within the parent survey and can be accessed only if a parent chooses to allow their child to participate.
Your feedback is extremely valuable and will play an important role in helping us better support our students. The survey will remain open through March 27.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support.

Cavalier Compass is a weekly video from our school counseling team, shared with all students during their Wednesday advisory. Its purpose is to provide resources, encouragement, and real-life skills that support students both in and out of the classroom. Topics range from study habits and course planning to mental health awareness, healthy lifestyles, and digital citizenship. Our goal is to connect with students in a fun, positive way while giving them tools to grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
If you have any questions about Cavalier Compass, please reach out to our lead counselor, Kasey Lucas (kllucas@conroeisd.net).

CPHS wants All Cavaliers to Achieve. A large part of student success is related to student attendance. We want to teach our Cavs all we can in the days that we have with them. Please encourage your student to attend every period to gain the knowledge they need to be successful. In the event your child does miss school, please be sure to email our attendance office or see the new Student Absence Reporting App information below. Also, please remind your child to get with their teacher about any work they missed. We would also like to remind you that your child will be at risk of losing credit and parents/guardians may have to go to court due to attendance.
We encourage all parents to sign up for the SMART tag™ Parent App, which provides real-time updates on your child’s school bus. You’ll receive alerts when the bus is arriving, along with notifications about any delays or route changes.
Please note that we will no longer be using Bus Hubs to communicate bus delays—so be sure to download and activate the SMART tag™ Parent App to stay informed and connected.
