At Endeavor High School, our greatest strength is our dedicated team of teachers. The majority of our staff bring over 10 years of classroom experience, with half of those having taught for more than 20 years. This depth of knowledge and expertise ensures that our students benefit from seasoned educators who are not only passionate about their subject areas but also deeply committed to student success. We are proud to have such an exceptional group of professionals guiding our Eagles every day.

We are proud to share that the Texas Education Agency has awarded Endeavor High School an A rating in their accountability system! This accomplishment reflects the hard work and dedication of our students, staff, and families, as well as the strong support of our community. Together, we have built a culture of excellence where high expectations and collaboration lead to student success. We are grateful to everyone who contributed to this achievement and look forward to continuing to grow and shine as an Eagle family!

Four years ago, Mrs.Thurik received a grant from the CISD Education Foundation to get bi-monthly visits from a comfort dog through Interquest CARES. After seeing the positive influence the visits had on students and staff, Mr. Sims has continued the program.

On the last Friday of the month or the Friday before a holiday break, a representative from Interquest CARES brings one of their comfort dogs to our campus in the morning until the beginning of lunch. The dog greets the students before the bell rings and during the activity period. Any student can come and hang out or love on the dog who is all too happy to return the feelings and leave behind his fur as a reminder of the interaction.

The dog and its handler will walk in and out of the classrooms and students also have the ability to sign up for a private interaction with the dog and its handler. They can also do it with a couple of friends or a counselor for a period of about 10 minutes. If a student wishes for this private time, they need to go to the campus website and fill out a form. They will be called to the meeting room at the appropriate time.

The form can be found on our website by clicking the little black button with a dog icon on it. This can be filled out at any time.

We are very happy to be able to continue this tradition on our new campus.

The following is needed for a student to drive to Endeavor:

• A valid Texas driver's license
  
• Proof of liability on your vehicle
  
• A parking permit issued from Endeavor

Students who drive to school without a license run the risk of receiving a citation from our campus Constable and will not be allowed to drive off of the campus with their vehicle. See Mrs. Barrientos in the front office for a permit.

Endeavor students received their Chromebooks this week. Students are expected to bring their fully charged Chromebook every day to school.

There are a few Chromebooks that are "Locking Up." Those issues have been report to the technology department and will be corrected ASAP.

For the protection of our students, food deliveries and visitors who are not on a student's emergency contact list are not allowed during lunch. Along with students having an option for a free lunch, there are microwave ovens available in the cafeteria for students to use. Milk and fruit are available to students who bring their own lunch at no charge.

It is the mission of the Channelview Independent School District to enhance the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth of all students in order to prepare them to become productive, responsible, and successful members of our society. While we strive each day to serve our students, we also realize that our top priority must be the safety of these students, as well as our staff. In fact, our campus engages in activities on a regular basis to prepare students and teachers to react to emergency situations. Below are two informative posters that detail some key terms relating to safety procedures in place at Endeavor High School. Our staff and students have trained annually on these procedures, and drills are practiced monthly and semi-annually depending on the type of drill. Hold, Lockdown, Secure, Evacuate, and Shelter are examples of procedures that are taught and practiced by students and staff throughout each year. In this way, we strive to ensure all students and staff members are educated and prepared to react to situations such as fires, weather emergencies, and even active shooters on campus. In the event of an emergency, the actions and appropriate directions listed below will be called on the PA system. Please take a moment to review these actions with your child to reinforce these directions. We sincerely hope this information helps to provide a better understanding of the safety procedures in place at Endeavor High School.
