Representing the school store, Vibhan Emmi & Alisa Lin were honored as Top 10 Finalists. Finally, Andrew Haynes took home 3rd place overall in his event, Integrated Marketing Campaign!

From volunteering in person, family monetary donations, and gift card purchases for raffles every family can have an opportunity to show their Cavalier Pride. Please check out the various ways to get involved.

Cavaliers,

Our UIL Academics team delivered a historic performance at their recent competition hosted at Baylor University, earning record-breaking results and continuing a tradition of excellence!

As a team, College Park finished 3rd overall in Sweepstakes, just 4 points shy of 1st place, an incredible accomplishment against top competition from across the region.

Even more exciting, 8 of our students have qualified for the State Tournament in May, where they will look to defend our State Title and build on last year’s success. We are incredibly proud of their dedication, preparation, and performance.

Individual Results:

• Sarah Synek – Regional Champion, Informative Speaking
• Pimchanok Pawathikul – 3rd Place Informative Speaking (State Qualifier)
• Rudra Sharma – 4th Place Informative Speaking (State Alternate)
• Luke Liu – Regional Champion, Persuasive Speaking

Congratulations to our two Cavaliers of the Week, Mrs. Odonnell and Mrs. Florian!

We are proud to recognize Nancy as this week’s Cavalier of the Week! Her exceptional organization, attention to detail, and dedication have been on full display as she has successfully coordinated and scheduled five EOC exams. Managing testing on this scale is no small task, but Nancy has handled it with professionalism and precision, ensuring a smooth experience for both students and staff. Her hard work behind the scenes does not go unnoticed, and our campus is better because of her commitment. Thank you, Nancy, for all that you do!

This week, we are excited to celebrate Mary Lou as our Cavalier of the Week! Mary Lou has gone above and beyond in supporting our graduating seniors, providing guidance, encouragement, and countless opportunities to help them prepare for their next steps. Her dedication to students is evident in everything she does, and she approaches each day with positivity and a welcoming smile. Mary Lou’s impact on our campus community is truly meaningful, and we are grateful for the care and energy she brings to her role. Thank you, Mary Lou, for making a difference every day!

Address the issue of cyberbullying and let your teen know they can talk to you if they encounter such situations.

Cavalier Compass is a weekly video from our school counseling team, shared with all students during their Wednesday advisory. Its purpose is to provide resources, encouragement, and real-life skills that support students both in and out of the classroom. Topics range from study habits and course planning to mental health awareness, healthy lifestyles, and digital citizenship. Our goal is to connect with students in a fun, positive way while giving them tools to grow academically, socially, and emotionally.

If you have any questions about Cavalier Compass, please reach out to our lead counselor, Kasey Lucas (kllucas@conroeisd.net).

Our 24-25 attendance rate was: 94.8%. Our goal for 25-26 is 98%!

CPHS wants All Cavaliers to Achieve. A large part of student success is related to student attendance. We want to teach our Cavs all we can in the days that we have with them. Please encourage your student to attend every period to gain the knowledge they need to be successful. In the event your child does miss school, please be sure to email our attendance office or see the new Student Absence Reporting App information below. Also, please remind your child to get with their teacher about any work they missed. We would also like to remind you that your child will be at risk of losing credit and parents/guardians may have to go to court due to attendance.

We encourage all parents to sign up for the SMART tag™ Parent App, which provides real-time updates on your child’s school bus. You’ll receive alerts when the bus is arriving, along with notifications about any delays or route changes.

Please note that we will no longer be using Bus Hubs to communicate bus delays—so be sure to download and activate the SMART tag™ Parent App to stay informed and connected.
