Success in Austin

CHS would like to thank all of our great athletes for their work in Austin this past weekend. Our male swimmers were successful by coming in 2nd place at the UIL swim meet. Our female students were also successful by turning in a 3rd place position. While I don't want to debate the UIL I believe the girls would have won first if allowed to properly participate in the last relay. Finally our wrestlers were successful by returning with a 3rd place and 6th place in individual events. Way to go Dragons we are so proud of each of you.

State U Announces Summer Dual Credit

The Texas Education Agency announced this week that TEA approved online dual credit courses provided via the TxVSN will be FREE to Texas students-incoming juniors and seniors.

UIL State Swimming/Diving and Wrestling

CHS will like to wish all of our Dragons good luck this weekend in Austin for the state UIL Swimming/Diving and Wrestling.  We will be cheering for you and look forward to a state championship following our students back to Southlake.

GOOD LUCK DRAGONS!

TAKS Upcoming

Please remember TAKS English/Reading will be happening next Wednesday, March 3, 2010.   The testing will take place soon after the day starts at 8:00 AM.

We hope all students are prepared to be successful on this test and ask that everyone let us know if they need any additional help.

Registration Update

Please remember registration is currently happening at CHS.  We have now activated registration for parents to access through their home access instead of just through the student accounts.

We ask for students to have a wonderful part in the conversations that will select these schedules and we hope they'll be up to date soon.

Good luck and please let us know if you have any questions.

Relay for Life

If you haven't formed a "Relay for Life" team we would still encourage each individual to form a team to participate in this CISD/City of Southlake community service project.  While we continue to strive to enrich our students academics we also believe it is important to continue to expand our students goals for the future and encourage them to work to be positive members of society.

Please also remember this event will conclude with a "Rachel's Challenge" event to begin to complete our year.

Thank You Students

I would like to take this opportunity to thank several wonderful students that attend classes regularly at CHS: Colton Quinn, Andreas Nauwelaers, Chase Milyo, Brian Hill, Barrett Benesh, Alissa Walburg, and Vicki Griffin.  These great students provided a wonderful service at the Board of Trustees meeting last night and led the board in the pledges.  Collectively, they have provided more than 1200 work hours of service to CHS this school year through classes with Connie Ball.

While the above named students led the verbal pledge at the meeting these next ASL students provided an opportunity to Sign the pledge at the same time: Bradley Benoit, Connor Papie, Torie Berlin, and Natalie Swart.  I would also like to thank Danita Barton for providing these students another opportunity to utilize the offerings of our ASL program.

Summer Santa

Please don't forget our Science Club is sponsoring the Summer Santa program, Feb. 8 through Feb. 12, at CHS.

We would like to encourage everyone to bring an unwrapped toy--No stuffed animals please.  There is a box outside the main office for toys to be left.

Tuesday Schedule

While speaking with Mr. Rhodes we have decided to maintain our published schedule for next Tuesday, February 16. Tuesday will be an A day much like Thursday was supposed to be marked.


After considering the events of our half day and the fact we probably lost most of our time due to weather and many concerns with our time to release, we feel it is best to start over and work with our published calendar. Obviously with Frideay being missed we will now be making up 2 days later in the semester and thus we will simply add in the A day and B day in the schedule.

We will do all we can to publish this information on the campus homepage quickly for everyone.
Please be safe and have a wonderful time with your families over this extended weekend.

Registration Update

The counselors from CHS and CSHS met with all of the rising freshmen, sophomores, and Juniors through their World History, World Geography, and Middle School classes during the past few weeks. They provided students with information about graduation plans, course selections, and how to select courses through Family Access. The Academic Planning Guide is posted on both high schools’ websites; this document describes, in detail, each course that is offered at both schools. It also provides information about prerequisites and about summer assignments that may be required for specific courses.


All students’ parents will receive a Connect Ed phone call when the on-line registration process is available. We anticipate that this will happen within the next week.

If you have any questions, please contact Carroll High School (rising 9th and 10th grade students) at 817.949.5620 or Carroll Senior High School (rising 11th and 12th grade students) at 817.949.5813. Thank you so much.
