Here are the steps to becoming a dual credit student, as outlined on the TWHS Dual Credit Website: https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/home . Even if your student has not yet met with their counselor, they can begin to complete the following steps.

Step 1: Are you a new or returning dual credit student?

https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-1-new-or-returning

Step 2: If you are a new dual credit student, complete the apply Texas application & set up your Lone Star College account and forward your emails. If you are not new to dual credit, proceed to step 3.

https://sites.google.com/conroeisd.net/twhs-dual-credit/dc-steps/step-2-apply-to-lone-star

Step 3: Do you have qualifying test scores either through SAT (https://www.collegeboard.org/), ACT (https://my.act.org/account/signin?location=https://my.act.org), or the TSIA2? (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeyVV6Xm1q_rkY9fl4N9G-nsKXbZMd6Hha88hunqVKSkJmScA/viewform)

FOREIGN LANGUAGE: TWHS offers a multitude of languages, including German, French, Chinese, and Japanese. As students decide which language to choose, there are a few things to keep in mind. First and foremost, students should make sure that they choose the language and culture that truly interests them. They will be spending a lot of time in their foreign language classroom, and they might as well enjoy it while they learn. Secondly, they should keep their own marketability in mind. Which language will make them stand out to future employers? See below for more information. German, French, Chinese, and Japanese at TWHS

Make sure to join us and bring your family and friends for a great time while helping an amazing organization!

Vaccines: If your student has received any vaccines this school year, feel free to send a copy or screenshot to your child’s nurse so that we can add it to their electronic record. You can email it to aransley@conroeisd.net for the Senior Campus, or efalcon@conroeisd.net for the Ninth Grade Campus.

Summer Movers: If your child is not returning to TWHS in the fall, we are able to provide you with an emailed copy of their electronic vaccine record or their original vaccine exemption form, as long as you request it no later than May 27th. We will not be able to fulfill requests made during the summer.

Senior Parents: Colleges and universities require a second dose of the Meningitis (MCV4) vaccine that is received on or after the student’s 16th birthday, since the first dose is only effective for five years. You may also want to discuss the optional Meningitis B vaccine with your doctor. That is a newer vaccine that is available to children ages 16-18, and it protects against an additional strain of the meningococcal virus.

Screenings: The clinic is still in the process of performing state-required vision and hearing screening on all students who were not enrolled in Conroe ISD in 7th grade. If your child has received a vision referral this school year, please ensure that you follow up on that by making an appointment with an eye doctor, and have them sign the bottom portion of the referral form. It does not count as a completed referral unless that signed form is received in the clinic. Please contact the clinic if you need assistance.

LIBRARY: Did you know.. Seniors have to clear their library accounts before they can pick up their prom tickets or diplomas. Everyone should check their account to see if they have any lost books or print fees to clear. You can find this information in the Destiny App on the SSO. For payment we accept cash or print card (which can be purchased at School Cash Online. Just show us the receipt to pick it up in the library.) Please contact Marie Willingham or Lacey Estrada if you have any questions.

NEWCOMER CENTER: At Newcomer Center, we understand that moving to another country can be very stressful, and the lack of knowledge about the enrollment process and the education system can be even more challenging. I have had the privilege of working with over 5,000 families, assisting them through this process, and I can assure you that having someone to guide them and explain the process calmly can make a huge difference, providing them with much-needed peace of mind. Therefore, if you know anyone who is moving to this district, please don’t hesitate to share my information. I would be happy to provide them with the help and guidance they need. I speak Spanish as well. I am available for any other questions. My information is as follows: Iytzia Cardenas, WhatsApp: 2812209527, Office: 936-709-8385, Email: icardenas@conroeisd.net.

2025 TWHS YEARBOOK: Last chance to order is April 1 at jostens.com.

The 2024 student selections have been installed! Once again, thank you to all the Texas artists who submitted work for consideration this year. Our student committee narrowed the initial submissions to 12 artists/artworks. These 12 nominated artworks were then displayed at the school prior to Thanksgiving and the students voted the week of November 11. We are excited to announce that we added the following artists’ work to our collection as a result of the student voting: Jonas Criscoe (Houston), Daryl Gannon (Conroe), Ksenia Kozhenkova (Houston),

Elena Martino (Willis), and Drew McDonald (Austin.) The original artworks have been installed on the 2nd floor of the main campus near room 234 and reproductions of the works are on display on the main floor of the 9th grade campus.

Visit our website to see the winning entries (and the entire collection of now 71 artworks by 59 established Texas Artists): www.twhsat.org.

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. The works are hung in 14 groups around the school, corresponding to the number of years we have been growing. We offer FREE tours of our collection to schools and other groups by appointment. Please contact us to set up a date twhsat@gmail.com.

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.

ABSENT REPORTING APP: In an effort to make things easier for our families, CISD is launching an app to help you report your student's absences to our school when they are out. Documentation such as doctor's notes will still need to be submitted to our campus attendance office, but we are excited about the convenience of this new app. You will access it through the Parent Portal. The directions are included in the link. https://kb.conroeisd.net/kb/absence-reporting-system-app-parent-directions

HOME ACCESS CENTER: Home Access Center is now fully integrated into Conroe ISD systems. Parents are still experiencing issues with "linking" their students. If a parent is needing help, please contact the Registrar of the campus the student attends to expedite a solution.

SCHOOL CASH ONLINE: Attention Parents: 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.
