STAAR Testing Next Week for 3rd & 4th Grade

Next week, our 3rd and 4th grade students will take the STAAR test. This is just one way to show what they have learned, but we know our students are smart in so many different ways!


To help your child do their best, make sure they get plenty of rest, eat a good breakfast, and come ready to focus. We want students to try their hardest, but there’s no need to stress—this is simply a chance to show what they know.


Standardized tests help teachers understand how students are learning and how we can better support them. Thank you for encouraging your child to do their best while keeping a positive mindset!

New Website and CISD App

Over the next few weeks, campuses across the District, including ours, will be launching a new website. When that happens, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the refreshed design and set new bookmarks for your browsing convenience. You can also download the new Conroe ISD app in your device’s app store and begin customizing the pages and news you want to see.


Additionally, in the coming weeks, you will receive information about our new mass communication system called Alerts. Be on the lookout for texts from 98900 when the new system is implemented. Emails and texts may have a slightly different look, but they’ll still contain all of the great information we share. These transitions are part of a bigger initiative to bring efficiency to the District’s communication platforms, and there are more exciting updates to come!

Congratulations to our Ambassador Award Winners!

Superintendent Dr. Curtis Null came on Monday to honor four outstanding members of our school community. Congratulations to Ms. Burns, Ms. Yates, Ms. McCaslin, and 4th grader Loretta Benson!

Austin Color Run 2025!

Our kids didn't play around when it came to the Color Run! The little ones started off slow, a little cautious, but soon got caught up, or really covered up, in the color! The older kids seemed to somehow get covered instantly. Thank you to all the volunteers, willing staff, and PTO for putting in the effort to make this fundraiser a success. Thank you to all the parents who signed your kids up for the run! (And thank you to the weather for not raining.) We can't wait until Color Run 2026!

Summer School Registration for Pre-K through 6th Grade will open from April 7 - May 16. Summer School will be housed at Hope, Rice and Lamar for Pre-K to 2nd grade.
