Converse Fire Department News: October is National Fire Preven- tion month. This year’s 2018 Cam- paign “LOOK. LISTEN. LEARN. Be aware. Fire can happen anywhere” is October 7-13, 2018. The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) works to educate reducing the likelihood of having a fire and how to escape safely by LOOK-ing for places where a fire could start, LISTEN-ing for the sound of the smoke alarm and LEARN-ing two ways out of every room. For more information about fire prevention, please contact the Converse Fire Department or you can visit www.nfpa.org for more fire prevention tips. The Fire Department will be visiting local schools for a fire prevention talk and demonstration. We ask that you please talk about what they learned, and as a family project develop a home fire safety plan. Smoke detectors save lives! We recommended testing your smoke detectors at least monthly, by pressing the test button to ensure the alarm is working correctly.

  • High School Summer Reading Suggestions and Resources
    Judson independent school district JISD READS! English I – English II – English III – English IV English I Honors – English II Honors As we look forward to a productive 2020-2021 school year, we want our students to be as prepared as possible by practicing the activity that hones their skills: Reading! In an effort to promote a passion for reading, JISD asks students to independently read books of their choice during the school year, as well as in the summer months. Summer is a time for fun and relaxation, but also a time for consistent practice to keep your reading skills sharp. Research shows that if you do not read for several months, you lose some of your skill. Independent reading has many benefits: ● Support student’s growth ● Improves vocabulary ● Improves comprehension ● Improves test scores ● Improves writing skills *As students read this summer, it is highly encouraged that they annotate their books to help them develop good reading habits and comprehend the text. 1. Annotation directions and question stems have been provided. JISD students have access to a Digital Library on the link It’s important for parents to be involved below and on the JISD Portal! in book selections. Parents and students will want to preview their potential book choices prior to reading and Sora Digital Library discuss if the book is the “right fit” for the student. Parents can preview books through: 1. Barnes&Noble.com 2. Goodreads.com 3. Amazon.com Judson independent school district Important Links, Resources, & Information JISD High School Campuses – Librarians and Library Websites Librarian: Ortiz Librarian: Tschirhart Librarian: Thompson Judson High School Wagner High School Veterans Memorial High School Home of the Rockets Champions of Change Home of the Patriots Need More Help Selecting Books?

  • Dear Judson ISD Team
    Dear Judson ISD Team, I hope that each of you had a great weekend. I continue to be impressed as to how wonderful Judson ISD staff is and the approach each individual is taking during these new opportunities we are facing. When I hear and read things that undermine and hurt our staff it saddens me because I see the dedication, hard work and love that teachers are pouring into what they do. But this past week I received the following email that made my heart so happy because it confirms that others also see how wonderful our teachers are.
