Connally Junior High School Update

Week of 1/13/2025 - 1/17/2025

Principal's Update:

Happy New Year, and welcome back to school! Despite the cold and rainy start to the semester, our priority has been ensuring that all of our students stayed warm and safe, and we appreciate your support during this time.

As we begin this new year, January is a busy month for testing on campus. MAP Testing will take place on today (science), Wednesday(math), and Friday (ELAR)of this week. We kindly ask for your partnership in helping your child succeed by ensuring they get a good night’s sleep, eat a nutritious breakfast, and leave for school with encouragement and positive energy. A positive start to their day can make a big difference in their confidence and performance.

Additionally, we want to emphasize the importance of consistent attendance and active engagement in school. Every day counts! Regular attendance not only ensures your child is keeping up with lessons but also helps them build habits of responsibility and commitment. If your child is struggling with the transition back to school or anything else, please reach out to us so we can support them.

Let’s work together to make 2025 a year of success and growth for all our Cadets. Thank you for your ongoing support, and as always, we’re here to partner with you for the success of your student.

Warm regards,
