Connally Independent School District

Connally Early Childhood Center Update

Week of 10/21/2024 - 10/25/2024

Principal's Update:

Good Morning,

To begin I would like to thank our Connally community for the support that you have shown to our teachers and staff, but more importantly to the family of Za'hir Johnson, who passed away in an accident. We have felt loved and supported. Please continue to hold Za'hir's family in your thoughts and prayers as they process this unimaginable loss.

We did have some joyous moments this past week, including watching all of our students spend the day at Western Belle Farms. The teachers came back with tons of pictures that showed big smiles and lots of fun taking place. Thank you to all the parents who accompanied us on the trip!

As a reminder, good attendance and being at school on time is so important and we ask that you make it a priority. Our teachers start the day's activities right at 7:30am!

Please make special note of all of the upcoming dates listed below. The holiday season is fast approaching, and with that comes many special events and activities. That being said, if you have not scanned your driver's license into Raptor at school before, stop by the front office any time to do so. This will allow you to get checked in very quickly at campus events!

Have a wonderful week!

Mrs. Bowling

Schoolstore Fundraiser

Finally our Schoolstore fundraiser continues all year! We have had great response so far with lots of help provided for our school. We encourage you to continue to shop using SchoolStore. It gives money back to your child's teacher as well as our school. Your child will earn a cool wrist pet when you sign up!

Attendance

The best way to get your child off to a great start is to make a commitment to have them at school every day. Good attendance is a strong predictor of future academic success. We are busy every minutes of the day in Pre-K and Kindergarten with learning and we do not want your child to miss out on anything!
