Wilkerson Intermediate Families,

Welcome Back! We hope everyone had a great spring break and are ready for the last quarter of the 2025-2026 school year. We are looking forward to building memories and finishing strong.

Tuesday: St. Patrick's Day (Wear Green)

Thursday: Our Wildcats Are Out Of This World (Wear Something Space Themed)

Friday: Normal School Day

SMORE-Student Incentive Program

During the three weeks after Spring Break we are offering an incentive program to help motivate students for that final push to STAAR.

Students will have the opportunity to earn badges for Attendance, ELA, Math, and Science from their LC teachers. They will also have a place to earn ROAR badges from their LC teachers, as well as bonus ROAR badges from any teacher on campus on the back.

At the end of the three weeks, students will exchange their SMORE page for tickets they can enter into the EOY drawing for prizes.

Students will have to keep up with their SMORE page for the entire 3-week period.

If students lose their page, they can get another, but they will lose any stamps they had previously collected.
Students will get a new page and we will repeat the 3-week SMORE incentive from April 6-24.
Students will have the opportunity to earn up to 70 entries in the End of Year Drawings.
Students that complete the front side of both pages over 6 weeks will receive a special incentive from the Admin team.

Student Discipline

In an effort to deter poor behavior choices, students who receive a serious level 3 or repeated level 2 disciplinary referrals during the spring semester are subject to being withheld from future school-wide incentive activities like field trips or any end of the year celebrations. For more information, please see our campus Levels of Misbehavior.

Attendance Matters

Our 24-25 attendance rate was: 95.34%. Our goal for 25-26 is 97%!

Our current attendance rate as of Friday, March 6 is 95.5%

Wilkerson wants ALL Wildcats to achieve. A large part of student success is related to student attendance. We want to teach our students all we can in the two years we have them at Wilkerson, so they are prepared for what lies ahead in junior high.

Please partner with us in your child's education by making attendance a priority. Students cannot learn if they are not present. When students are absent they miss important instruction which often causes stress on the student. In the event your child does miss school, please be sure to call the school or email our attendance office. Also, please remind your child to get with their teacher about any work they missed.

Volunteers

Thank you to our parents who have volunteered to read with our students. If you would like to volunteer, please SIGN UP HERE TO VOLUNTEER. Our students and staff love seeing parents in the building. To volunteer, you need to be approved through the Conroe ISD Volunteer approval process. To become an approved volunteer, complete the short application HERE

We are asking for your help with situations that often cause classroom distraction or are violations of our district and/or school guidelines.

We do not allow toys at school. Please do not allow your child to bring toys such as stuffed animals/plushies to school. If toys are at school, they must remain in the child's backpack all day.
Transportation does not allow students to ride home on another bus. Most of our buses are full with students from both Wilkerson and Knox and do not have the capacity to hold additional students.
Hats, caps, hoods, etc.. are not to be worn in common areas. We have seen an increase in the number of times we have to correct students for having them on in common areas. Unless it is a dress up day, please leave caps and hats at home.
Warmer weather is here and the same shorts that fit in the fall are now too short. Please check the length of the shorts your child plans to wear to school. We will follow the CISD guidelines for dress code. Please see the CISD Elementary/Intermediate guidelines on grooming and dress embedded in the newsletter.
FOOD DELIVERIES: We do not accept food deliveries for students from services like Grub Hub, Door Dash, or Uber Eats. Please refrain from ordering food to be delivered to the school.

Watch D.O.G.S.

We are starting Watch DOGS (Dads Of Great Students) at Wilkerson, and we need our Dads (and/or Uncles, Adult brothers, etc..) to join together for a positive impact at Wilkerson. If you are interested in being a part of the Wilkerson Watch DOGS, please complete the Google Form linked below. Our Watch DOGS leaders will be in contact with you soon.

WATCH D.O.G.S. sign up HERE.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Together, we look forward to a successful and productive year ahead for all of our students.

Better Together!

School Report Card

School Report Cards SRCs inform families about a campus’ individual characteristics and its academic performance, including outcomes for the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®) and academic growth. The 2024 ratings release was delayed due to legal proceedings that previously prevented their release; therefore, both the 2024 and 2025 SRCs are now available. On the SRC, student attendance, enrollment, and class size information and financial indicators are provided alongside the campus’ Overall Academic Accountability Rating, a rating for each accountability domain, and the Distinction Designations earned by the campus from both the 2024 and 2025 accountability rating years.

CISD Elementary/Intermediate Student Handbook: Dress and Grooming Dress Codes

General Information Dress and Grooming Dress codes are established to teach grooming and hygiene, prevent disruptions, minimize safety hazards, and to maintain a positive learning environment.

The District prohibits pictures, emblems, or writings on clothing that are any of the following: lewd, violent, suggestive, offensive, vulgar or obscene, or advertise or depict tobacco products, alcoholic beverages, drugs, or any other substance prohibited under FNCF (LEGAL).
Halter-tops, muscle shirts, and spaghetti-straps tops are not permitted unless covered by another shirt.

Midriff shirts, or shirts exposing the midsection of the body, are not permitted.
Makeup/cosmetics may not be worn or applied at school.
Hair and hairstyle cannot create a distraction.
Students must ensure that all undergarments are covered.
Students who choose to wear shorts to school must wear them at fingertip length when the student rests his/her arms at his/her side.
Flip flops, slippers, or backless shoes may not be worn during P.E. Classes.
Shorts may be worn under dresses.
Dresses and skirts should be appropriate length (fingertip) and tights should accompany shorter dresses, skirts or shorts.
If students wear leggings, the shirt must cover their backside.
If wearing jeans with rips/holes, please ensure the holes are knee level and below.
Students may not wear costumes or costume pieces to school, unless pre-approved by a teacher for a specific project.
Students may not wear clothes that cause a distraction.

A campus may have additional rules regarding dress code. If the principal determines that a student’s grooming or clothing violates the school’s dress code, the student will be given an opportunity to correct the problem at school and return to the classroom. If the problem cannot be corrected at school, the school will work with the student and parent to obtain an acceptable change of clothing for the student in a way that minimizes loss of instructional time. Until the situation is corrected, the student may be assigned to in-school suspension. Repeated or severe offenses may result in more serious disciplinary action in accordance with the Student Code of Conduct.

Tech Tips

Designate certain areas of your home as tech-free zones, such as the dinner table and bedrooms.

Assessment Explanation

MAP tests are adaptive assessments that indicate a student's strengths and areas for improvement in the content tested. The ELA MAP test takes place of the BAS assessments. The MAP tests will provide individual student information that will allow teachers to tailor instruction to meet the academic needs of the student.

Quarterly Assessments (QAs) :These assessments are given within the last two weeks of the grading period and contain only previously taught content as defined by the district curriculum maps. They are provided by the district before the beginning of the quarter so that teachers can plan instruction, and are designed to be completed in a single 50-minute class period.

Common Assessments (CA) are assessments that measure the student's understanding of the content (TEKS) taught in class. Teachers are able to take the data from the assessments and determine where students are successful and where they have misconceptions. Teachers will use this data to guide instruction going forward.
