Last Round of TAKS for CHS

Please remember next week we will have our last set of days for 10th grade TAKS testing for Math, Science, and Social Studies at CHS.

We have a unique situation on this campus because 9th graders will not do state testing all week. If you have a 9th grader, they can arrive as late as 12:30 PM on Tuesday and Thursday. For Friday 9th graders must be in school by 10:00 AM. If a 9th grader arrives at their usual reporting time, he/she will have the opportunity to study or read in the cafeteria. Busses will run on their regular schedule and four and a half hours later for the late arrival on Tuesday and Thursday.

CHS will maintain a schedule after testing with all four classes meeting during the last two hours with the exception of no shuttle busses running on Tuesday through Thursday. We will not release a student during testing for appointments and encourage all students to be here the rest of the day for all classes. If you have questions please feel free to contact CHS.

TAKS Testing 2011

Please remember tomorrow is our first day of 10th grade TAKS testing for Math. We have a unique situation on this campus because 9th graders do not test tomorrow. If you have a 9th grader, they can arrive as late as 11:55 AM on Tuesday.

Busses will run on their regular schedule and four hours later for the late arrival.

Good luck to all of our Sophomores on this math TAKS test.

English Language Arts TAKS

Please remember Tuesday will be our first day of TAKS 2011. All students will be taking their English TAKS test. Our sophomores will be testing in English and our freshmen will be testing in reading. Everyone needs to arrive and be ready to test by 8 AM. Please be sure to plan for extra time getting to school as traffic will be congested. CHS will begin testing once all of our students are on campus and in their testing rooms.

Good luck Dragons!

If you have any questions or concerns please phone the office and have a great Friday.

Half Way Through TAKS

Today we will have all of our students testing on various tests. We first want to thank our kids for working so well on our first day of Math testing on Tuesday. Second we'd like to thank our staff for so efficiently working with our kids to address all of their needs. Finally we'd like to thank our parents for working so well to have all students present and ready to work each day.

We certainly believe the next 2 days will work so well and we truly appreciate everyone.

If you have any questions please feel free to phone the school and we will be happy to discuss everything with you.

TAKS Success

We would like to thank our wonderful students for a successful TAKS day.  While entering several classrooms to observe our testing conditions I continually observed amazing things from our kids.  I'd also like to thank our staff for working so amazingly throughout the day.

9 weeks and we'll complete our testing with Math, Science and Social Studies in May.  If your child needs additional help with any of these subjects please contact their teacher and they can direct you to the format we'll use for providing our students opportunities to be successful.

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.
