Band Update

The fall application process has begun for eligible seniors only! Passes from the Grade Level Office will be sent to students starting October 1 - October 8, and all students will need to sign for their invitation. All applications will need to be completed and submitted no later than 3 PM on October 15. This is their last opportunity to apply, so please check with your students and make sure applications are filled out fully! If you have any questions, please email Mr. Balluck at pballuck@conroeisd.net or visit the TWHS NHS webpage to review frequently asked questions.

Submissions for 2026 are now OPEN! Please pass this on to Texas Artists!

Have you ever noticed the 76 works of art by established Texas artists that are permanently displayed in the hallways at school? This is The Woodlands High School Art Trust Collection and we are celebrating our 16th year! This collection of art works has been selected and purchased by our students over the past 15 years. Each year we add new works to the collection and our next selection process has begun. Submissions will be accepted until this SUNDAY, October 4th for consideration into our collection for 2026. We invite established Texas artists who have had work accepted into a juried show and are at least 22 years old to submit works to be considered for acquisition in 2026. If you know an established Texas Artist that might be interested, please pass this information on! Click HERE to learn more.

In mid-October, our student committee will narrow down the works submitted to 12-15 artworks that will be voted on by the entire student body in mid-November. Posters of the artworks will be on view at school in November and the original pieces will be displayed in the cafeteria just prior to voting. The students will purchase as many as possible of the pieces that receive the most votes on November 12.

The artworks are purchased through funds set aside by Student Council from the Homecoming Dance, however, the framing, lighting and conservation of these pieces need funding. Consider helping with that funding and show your support for The Woodlands High School Art Trust by joining our "One Hundred Friends of Art." Our goal is to have 100 arts supporters make an annual donation to support our cause. Donations are tax deductible and start as low as $10!! Visit our website to make a contribution: www.twhsat.org

The Woodlands High School Art Trust (TWHSAT) a 501(c)3 organization, was established in 2011 to help maintain, conserve and display the student-selected, student-purchased collection of established artists at The Woodlands High School. The vision for the TWHS Art Trust is to see the art collection grow each year and to have it extend through the hallways of the high school. We also offer FREE tours of our collection to schools and other groups by appointment.

Other than the public sculptures around The Woodlands, this is the ONLY permanent collection of art available to the public. It is seen by THOUSANDS of people every day. Please consider supporting this unique collection that sets us apart from other public high schools and strengthens our goal of being one of the best high schools in the state and country.

For more information on The Woodlands High School Art Trust please visit our website: www.twhsat.org or contact Susan Cosculluela at twhsat@gmail.com

HOSA Needs YOU!

The Woodlands High School is hosting our Texas HOSA Area 6 Spring Leadership Conference February 5–6, 2027, and we are calling for community volunteers to serve as competitive event judges!

Spend approximately 4 hours helping our future health professionals showcase their skills, knowledge, and leadership. Your expertise and encouragement can make a lasting impact on students. Orientation is provided, and a light meal will be served.

Want to make an impact? use the sign-up link to volunteer!

Bring a friend! Know a healthcare professional, educator, parent, community leader, or colleague who would be a great judge? Share the Call for Judges with them.

Questions? Contact Chelsea Baker at clbaker@conroeisd.net.

VACCINES: If you have received a letter or email from the clinic notifying you that your student has overdue vaccines or an expired Conscientious Objector exemption, please take care of it as soon as possible so they may remain enrolled. We will be completing our state vaccine report soon, and cannot allow students who are out of compliance to remain enrolled.

VISION And HEARING: We are in the process of conducting state-required vision and hearing screenings on all students who were not enrolled in Conroe ISD in the 7th grade. If your child does not pass our screening, a referral will be sent home. We ask that you take them to their doctor and return the signed referral so that we can mark it as complete. We only screen for distance vision, so if your child is having trouble seeing up close, we highly recommend an annual appointment with an eye care provider. Children’s vision can change rapidly during puberty, and we want them to be safe on the road!

ATTENTION PARENTS OF SENIORS: You may not be aware that colleges and universities require a second dose of the MCV4 (meningitis) vaccine, received on or after a child’s 16th birthday. There is also an optional Meningitis B vaccine that is available to protect children against additional strains of the meningococcal bacteria. Please discuss that with their pediatrician. If you need a copy of your child’s vaccine record to take to their physician, you can request it by emailing Mrs. Ansley at aransley@conroeisd.net with your child’s name.

MEDICATIONS AT SCHOOL: Parents or guardians are welcome to check in over the counter (OTC) medications to be kept in the clinic and administered by the clinic staff. We ask that medication be unexpired, in its original container, and no more than a 30-day supply (No Costco-sized containers). We are also only allowed to give the medication according to the directions on the container, unless it is accompanied by a doctor’s note.

ILL STUDENTS: We are starting to see many students with illness at school. Please discuss with your child the importance of good handwashing, avoiding touching their face, not eating or drinking after each other, getting a good night’s rest, and drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Eating something with protein in the morning can also be a huge help in preventing headaches and stomachaches and being successful at school.

Please keep all sick students at home until they are fever-free (below 100.0 degrees Fahrenheit) for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications, and have overall improving symptoms. Students who are experiencing diarrhea or vomiting should also remain at home. We have many medically fragile students and staff members, and need our whole school community’s help to avoid spreading illness at school.

October 13th is PSAT/SAT testing. In an effort to limit disruptions while students are testing, please note that there will not be any early releases processed during testing. If your student needs an early release for that day, please send them with a note in the morning and we will exchange that note for an early release pass. You may also email us the day before, and we will have a pass delivered to your student, so they have it in hand on the day of testing.

SMART TAG ID REPLACEMENT: If your student has lost their school ID, a new one may be purchased through School Cash Online. This item is available to all students under Smart Tag ID Replacement Fee. Pick-up is in the bookroom (off of the cafeteria), and proof of purchase must be presented (print out of receipt, on phone before 7:15 am, or emailed to mlsears@conroeisd.net).

This year the library is going almost completely cashless. All students will have a $2.00 Library Service Fee on their School Cash Online accounts. This fee will cover black and white printing (within reason) in the library. Color prints will still be .50 cents per page and can be paid with cash or a fee will be added to School Cash Online..

SCHOOL CASH ONLINE: Please be sure to check your child's School Cash Online account frequently. The website is www.conroeisd.schoolcashonline.com. Fees are added throughout the year for various activities. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the fees charged to your child, please contact the classroom teacher or club sponsor. Failure to pay fees listed as "required" or "overdue" may result in a student not being permitted to participate in some extracurricular activities. If you need assistance logging in to School Cash Online or adding and viewing your child's account, please visit schoolcashonline.com/Home/Support and view the resources available to help.
