A Note from Mrs. Mathe
I want to give a huge congratulations to our 3rd and 4th grade students for completing another successful round of STAAR testing! We are so proud of their hard work, determination, and positive attitude throughout the testing process. They truly showed what it means to be a Hines HERO!
Looking ahead, next week is Staff and Teacher Appreciation Week, and I can’t say enough about how incredible our staff is. Each day, they go above and beyond to support, teach, and inspire our students, and I’m so grateful for everything they do. We invite our families to join us in celebrating our amazing team! One easy and meaningful way to share your gratitude is by submitting a TAE (Teacher/Staff Achieving Excellence) to recognize the positive impact a staff member has made on your child.
Thank you for partnering with us and helping to make Hines such a special place to learn and grow!
If you’d like to recognize a staff member, you can do so through your parent SSO by submitting a TAE. Any staff member is eligible for this recognition. When a TAE is submitted, both the administration and the staff member are notified, and the joy it brings to their faces is priceless. To submit a TAE:
- Log in to your Parent Access SSO portal.
- Click on Parent Access Center
- Click communication.
- Choose Staff/Teacher excellence from the drop down menu.
- Select the employee to receive recognition from the drop down menu.
- Click create TAE.
- Click any of the pre-populated choices that apply.
- Type any additional comments in the Additional Comment box.
- Click the box labeled Create Teachers Achieving Excellence button.
- Done!
Transportation Change App Pilot
Exciting News!
We are currently piloting a new Transportation Change App available through your child's SSO to make notifying the school of transportation changes easier and more efficient for families.
As a reminder, all transportation changes must be submitted before 2:00 PM each day. This ensures our teachers and staff have plenty of time to communicate changes to students before dismissal.
For the remainder of this school year, as we pilot this new system, please note:
For this year while we are piloting, if you do not receive a confirmation from the front office team that your transportation change has been received, we kindly ask that you call the front office before 2:30 PM to verify it was submitted successfully.
Please also note that this process is for same-day transportation changes only. If you need to request a permanent change to your child’s transportation, please continue to email us at contacthines@conroeisd.net.
Thank you for your continued support as we work to make dismissal safe, smooth, and efficient for everyone!

NEW Absence Reporting System
In an effort to make things easier for our families, CISD is launching an app to help you report your students 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 (vblock@conroeisd.net). We are excited about the convenience of this app.
You can access the app through the Parent Portal. The directions are below.
