national origin, sex, religion, age, or disability in educational programs or activities that it operates or in employment matters. The District is required by Title VI and

Treats for Holiday Party and Special Events
The state allows each school to designate three days
where the FMNV (Foods of Minimal Nutritional Value)
policy can be waived, and students may be provided
snacks that don’t meet FMNV guidelines. At Cryar
Intermediate, we have designated the following three
days:
Pastries for Parents
Winter Party
Valentine’s Day
November 6th
December 19th
February 13th
Additionally, FMNV policy allows treats that don’t
meet FMNV policy for a child’s birthday, which may be
shared with his/her class, but they may not be consumed
before or during the lunch period. At Cryar, such treats
are shared with the child’s class in the cafeteria
immediately following lunch, should a parent choose to
provide them.
Treats that do not meet FMNV guidelines may not be
provided on any other days.
Nurse Clarke Says . . .
1. Students are not allowed to transport any type of
medications to and from school. All prescriptions and
over-the-counter medicines must be brought to school
and picked up by the parents.
2. Just a reminder that cold and flu season is
approaching. We encourage our students to do the
following things to help keep themselves as healthy
as possible:
*Frequent hand washing for 20 seconds.
Avoid touching eyes, nose, or mouth with
unwashed hands.
Avoid kissing, hugging, or sharing eating
utensils with people who are ill.
Cover all coughs and sneezes.
Disinfect frequently-touched surfaces,
such as toys and doorknobs, especially if someone
is ill.
Children in Santa’s Dreams
Congratulations!
The CISD Police Department would like to invite you to help
them make a child’s Christmas dream come true. Cryar will
be collecting NEW, unwrapped gifts for boys and girls of all
ages. We would like to have all gifts in by Friday, December
5th.
There will be a large container in the front office for the
collection of the donated toys.
*Mr. Chris Lopez, Cryar’s choir director, had ten 6th
grade choir members who performed at a district-wide
solo contest on October 25th, at Vogel Intermediate
School. Seven of the students received a 1st Division
Superior Rating, along with a CISD medal. Choir
members, you are amazing!
The gifts will be wrapped by the police department and given
to families who might not otherwise have a wonderful
Christmas without your help.
SALUTE TO OUR VETERANS
Please join the combined Armed Services Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC) of the Conroe Independent School District in
a salute to our local area veterans.
