Week of 3/24/2025 - 3/28/2025

Principal's Update:

Dear Connally Junior High Families,

It is with a mix of excitement and gratitude that I share some news about the upcoming school year. After eight wonderful years in Connally ISD and a deep love for our junior high campus, I will be transitioning to Connally High School as Associate Principal next year. While this change brings new opportunities, my heart remains firmly rooted in the success and well-being of all Connally students.

I want to assure you that our incredible CJH staff is well-prepared for this transition, and I will continue to be a bridge between both campuses, ensuring that our students experience a smooth and supportive journey from junior high to high school. Connally Junior High will always hold a special place in my heart, and I am proud of the strong foundation we’ve built together.

Thank you for your trust, support, and partnership in making CJH such an amazing place for students to grow. I look forward to finishing this school year strong and continuing to support Connally students in my new role.

With Cadet Pride,

Exciting news, Cadet family!

This past Friday afternoon, our track teams traveled to West to compete in a highly competitive track meet, and they did not disappoint! For the first time in five years, our 8th grade boys team brought home a team title—a historic achievement that deserves to be celebrated!

Our athletes gave it their all, showcasing incredible determination, teamwork, and school spirit. Their hard work and dedication paid off in a big way, bringing home not only individual successes but also a well-earned championship title.

Attached is a proud moment captured in a team photo, along with the hard-earned hardware that symbolizes this outstanding accomplishment. Let’s give a huge shoutout to our athletes and coaches for making history!

Way to go, Cadets! 💙🏆💙
