Welcome back, Highlanders! We are excited to kick off another great school year and have been busy getting the clinic ready to welcome our students. We look forward to partnering with you to keep everyone healthy and safe this year.

Your School Nurses

● Senior Campus: Alana Ansley aransley@conroeisd.net | 936-709-1076

Our clinics are open Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on school days.

---

Parent Consent for Clinic Care

Texas law requires parents to provide written consent for school staff to care for students during the school day. This includes routine clinic services such as taking temperatures, applying bandages, administering medications that have been checked into the clinic, and completing required hearing and vision screenings.

This consent is completed during your student's annual online enrollment. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the clinic.

---

Immunization Reminders

As enrollment is finalized, families of students with overdue immunizations or expiring Conscientious Objector exemptions will receive an email from the clinic.

Please take care of any missing immunizations as soon as possible to avoid your student being withdrawn from school.

---

Medication Check-In

If your student needs medication while on campus:

● A parent or guardian must bring the medication to the clinic or athletic trainers.

● Students may not transport medication to or from school.

● Medications must be in the original labeled container, unexpired, and limited to a 30-day supply.

---

Students with Chronic Medical Conditions

If your student has asthma, severe allergies, diabetes, seizures, or another chronic medical condition, a new physician-signed action plan is required each school year.

Students are encouraged to self-carry EpiPens and inhalers when appropriate. A completed Medication Self-Carry form must also be on file in the clinic.

Required health forms can be found on the Conroe ISD Health Services webpage.

---

Medical Phone Accommodations

If your student must access a phone during the school day for a medical reason, such as monitoring blood glucose levels or a pacemaker, please provide current physician orders to the clinic. We will notify staff of the approved medical accommodation.


Thank you for helping us prepare for a healthy and successful school year. We are excited to partner with your family and look forward to serving our Highlanders!

🗺️ MAP Growth: Knowing Where We Are and Where We Can Go

Dear Parents and Students,

Over the next two weeks, students in English 1, 2 & 3, Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, and Biology will take the NWEA MAP Growth assessment. 📚💻

MAP Growth is more than "another test" — it's a diagnostic tool that shows where each student is academically and what they're ready to learn next. This is our first year giving it at the high school level, following other grade levels across the district.

🎯 What It Tells Us

The test is computer-adaptive, so questions adjust to each student's responses. Results help teachers identify strengths and gaps, differentiate instruction, provide intervention or enrichment, monitor growth, and set goals with students. Instead of asking "Did I pass?", MAP Growth helps us ask, "Where am I now, how much have I grown, and what's next?" 📈

🌟 Effort Matters

MAP results are only as useful as the effort behind them. Please encourage your student to take their time, do their best, and approach the assessment with a positive attitude. 💯

📅 Students absent on their testing day will make up the assessment during their next class period.

Thank you for partnering with us! 🗺️📈

Student Parking

Tags will be distributed during lunches on the first week of school.

After the first week of school, parking tag pick up will be in the Grade Level Office after school until 3pm.

Any students who have been assigned parking and have not picked up their tag by September 1 will forfeit their spot to another student on the waitlist.

TWHS Library

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..
