Conroe ISD wishes our students, staff, and community a safe and restful Winter Break! ❄


In celebration of our November character trait: Gratitude, we’re creating something extra special for our amazing Collins staff — and we’d love for you to be part of it!
This month, we want to show our staff just how much they mean to our Collins community. Please take a moment to share words that remind you of the staff members you know. These can be personality traits, things they do, or anything that makes them special to you. You can list multiple words—just separate them with commas!
✨ How it works:
1️⃣ For each staff member you know, write one or more words that describe them.
2️⃣ Fill out as many as you'd like!
3️⃣ We’ll combine all the words for each staff member to create something special as a celebration of our gratitude for them.
Thank you for helping us spread gratitude and holiday cheer to the people who make Collins such a wonderful place! 🎁🌟

Dear Collins Cobra Families & Friends,
Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity to connect with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again and again. Studies show that kids read more when they choose books for themselves. And fostering a love of independent reading leads to a wide variety of benefits—including academic success and improved mental health.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:
Dates: November 7th – November 14th
Times: Friday-Thurs: 8:15 – 3:45; Friday, 14th: 8:15 – 1:30
Location: Collins Library Media Center
Family Members Shopping with student(s): You may shop the fair with your child by signing up to have lunch with your child in the Collins Café and then come shop our book fair!
There’s even more info on our school’s Book Fair homepage:
https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/collinsinterschool
While you’re there, set up a Book Fair eWallet, the digital payment account that allows your child to shop for books at the Fair without having to keep up with cash. Then share your eWallet link so friends and extended family can add funds.
This will be the perfect opportunity for doing some early holiday shopping for not only the readers in your lives, but for your teachers’ classroom libraries! Come check out you child’s LC teachers’ wish lists to purchase a book for their class and make their holidays extra happy!
Many of us still remember the rush of finding the perfect book at a Scholastic Book Fair. I hope you’ll join your child at our school’s Fair and share a reading experience they’ll remember forever.
Happy reading!
Mrs. Massey, Library Media Specialist
Collins Intermediate School
