Good evening, Giesinger Parents and Guardians! 💙🦅

I hope this message finds you and your family doing well! As we wrap up another wonderful week at Giesinger, I want to take a moment to share a few updates, celebrations, and reminders from around our Eagle community.


This week, our students participated in their Beginning-of-Year MAP testing. These assessments provide our teachers with valuable information about each student’s strengths and areas for growth. In the upcoming weeks, teachers will be reaching out to schedule parent-teacher conferences. During these conferences, teachers will review your child’s MAP scores, classroom progress, and other important data as we work together to support your child’s learning and growth this year.


I also want to especially highlight our PTO Fundraiser, which kicks off this Monday! 🎉 Our PTO does so much to support our students, staff, and campus, and the success of this fundraiser directly benefits Giesinger Elementary. There is more information towards the bottom of the newsletter. Thank you in advance for your generosity, participation, and continued support of our Eagles! 💙


We hope you have a wonderful and restful weekend with your family, and we look forward to seeing your child(ren) back at Giesinger on Monday! I look forward to seeing you at MOD Pizza this Saturday for our first Spirit Night!


Your Proud Principal,

Angela Fonville

Arrival and Dismissal Reminders Arrival and Dismissal Reminders

For all parents:

For the safety of all our Eagles, please only release your child from your vehicle at the designated drop-off area in front of the building. 🚗💙


Please do not drop students off on the street and have them walk to school. This is unsafe and creates a serious safety concern during our busy morning arrival.


Breakfast- Will be served starting at 7:15-7:55, unless there is a late bus.

If your student eats at school, you must get them to school on time.

New Student Lunch Bunch with Mrs. Heemann!

We are excited to begin our New Student Lunch Bunches! New students will have the opportunity to enjoy lunch with the school counselor and other new friends from their grade level. This is a fun way to meet new friends, make connections, and learn about all the wonderful things we do at Giesinger!

Permission forms have been sent home with new students. Please return them as soon as possible so your child can participate!

If your child is new to Giesinger this school year and did not receive a permission form, please email lheemann@conroeisd.net.

We can’t wait to welcome our newest Eagles and help them feel at home at Giesinger!

Supporting Our Giesinger Families

Throughout the school year, Giesinger partners with community organizations to provide assistance such as holiday gifts, school supplies, clothing, food, and other family resources.

If your child qualifies for Free & Reduced-Price Meals and you would like your family to be considered for available assistance, please complete our Family Assistance Permission Form.

Complete the form here:
https://forms.gle/y9duTKwSkwjyPhdCA

Please remember that completing the form does not guarantee assistance, as opportunities depend on available community resources. Permission must be renewed each school year.

Questions? Contact Laura Heemann, School Counselor at lheemann@conroeisd.net

FREE & REDUCED-PRICE MEAL BENEFITS REMINDER!

If your child received free or reduced-price meals last school year, their rollover benefits will expire September 24, 2026.
