Attendance Matters! Every Minute Counts!

We encourage all families to take advantage of our early arrival time! Our doors open at 7:10 a.m., and instruction begins promptly at 7:50 a.m. Did you know there is little to no wait time in our car rider line between 7:10 and 7:25 a.m.? Arriving early is a great way to avoid the morning rush and help your Roadrunner start the day on time!

⏰ Tardy Time Reminder: Students arriving after 7:50 a.m. will be marked tardy. We encourage families to arrive early to allow enough time for drop-off and for students to get to their classrooms before instruction begins.

🚗 Car Rider Reminders

To help keep our car rider line moving safely and efficiently, we ask families to:

• Have backpacks and all belongings ready before reaching the drop-off area.

• Make sure students exit the vehicle from the right side (passenger side).

• Give hugs and say goodbyes at home to help make drop-off quick and smooth.

Thank you for helping us keep our Roadrunners safe, on time, and ready to learn! ❤️

Starting October 13, 2026, elementary days will begin five minutes earlier.

• Early arrival will continue as usual opening doors at 7:10 a.m.
  

• Breakfast will be served starting at 7:25 a.m.
• School announcements will begin at 7:45 a.m.
• Daily instruction will begin at 7:50 a.m.
• Staff members on car rider duty should report to begin instruction at 7:50.
• If your child arrives after 7:50 a.m. it will be considered tardy. Please park and sign in your child at the front office. Please do not leave your child unattended on the front porch.

MAP Growth Assessment Family Reports have been uploaded to the Conroe ISD Home Access Center (HAC). The MAP Growth Family Report summarizes how your student is performing academically, as measured by the most recent MAP Growth test taken. Families can access this report by logging into their Home Access Center Account through the CISD Parent Portal. Directions for logging into the Home Access Center are linked below.

Once you have entered the Home Access Center:

• Click on the District Applications tab

To learn more about the MAP Growth test, you can view the What is MAP Growth Video for Families (English) or Qué es MAP Growth-Video for families (Spanish). Additional information about MAP Growth can be found by visiting NWEA.org/familytoolkit.

Logging into Home Access Center

To support reading growth, students who did not receive a passing score on the Spring 2026 grade 3 STAAR Reading Language Arts (RLA) assessment are eligible for state-funded tutoring support through a Parent Access to Supplemental Supports (PASS) account. Applications for the $400 PASS tutoring grant opened this week and are now available through the PASS website. An email with instructions on how to apply for the grant was sent to the families of students who qualify.
