Due to the approaching inclement weather in our area, all Connally ISD schools are being delayed until 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, February 24, 2022. Buses will run beginning at 8:00 a.m. Staff will arrive at 9:15 a.m. so no student will be able to enter the building before 9:15 a.m. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately for the cold. The decision for a possible cancellation for the entire day will be made once the district has an opportunity to assess the impact the weather has on our area tomorrow morning. Stay safe!
Parents,
Just a reminder that we will have school this Monday, February 21
Parents,
We are seeing an increase in the number of students falling asleep at school, especially during the morning instructional hours. Please help us in making sure your child gets plenty of rest in the morning and is recharged for school. Thank you for your help!
Parents,
There is a strong potential for some super cold and wet winter weather towards the end of this week! Make sure your child is bundled up and ready to stay warm! In the event of inclement weather that could cause a delayed start or worst case scenario school cancellation, a notification will go out through regular channels as soon as possible. We will do everything we can to keep you informed as soon as information is available.......Mr. Oakley
Parents,
Thank you so much for all your patience and understanding during our school closure. We truly miss your children and can't wait to see them back on campus next Wednesday, January 19. We are aware some parents may not have received the school notification for the closure and want to make sure everyone is included in future correspondence. If you did not receive notification of our closure, please contact the school via phone or email to update your contact information. Thank you! Mr. Oakley
Parents,
We are looking forward to seeing your child tomorrow for the first day back of 2022! Remember, the tardy bell rings at 730. To speed up the process of drop off, staff will no longer be opening car doors. Can't wait to see you all!
Parents and Students,
Can you believe the first semester is already coming to an end? We have thoroughly enjoyed watching you grow and learn and are looking forward to seeing you all back January 5 at 7:30 AM. On behalf of the entire Connally Elementary staff, we wish you a Merry Christmas, joyous holiday break, and a Happy New Year!
We've got spirit, yes we do! We got spirit! How 'bout you?
Congratulations to our fourth graders for winning most spirited school at today's Baylor basketball game!
Parents,
We anticipate progress reports for this grading period to go home Monday with your child. Have a great weekend!

Parents,
Just a reminder that tomorrow school will be in session as a regular school day and then no school on Friday for students. We hope you use this week off to relax and enjoy family time and celebrate all the things you are thankful for. As a staff, we are working on attendance, and school begins at 7:30 AM. Anyone arriving after is considered tardy. We look forward to seeing you again on Monday, November 29.
Good evening. I didn't want Veteran's Day to end without expressing my appreciation for all the CES family that are Veterans. As a Veteran myself, and on behalf of our faculty, we want to thank you for your service. I'm proud to have served our country and I know you all are as well. Happy Veteran's Day!
My name is Alan Oakley and I am the new principal at Connally Elementary. Mr. Cantu has taken a position at Central Office and I am so pleased to be the newest member of the CES family. Today is my first day on campus, and I am learning quickly about our campus life and meeting the staff and students.
I have many years of experience in education as an elementary teacher and campus administrator. In addition, I spent time as a middle school principal for several years with a campus of 4th through 8th grade students. I am very aware of the uniqueness of this age and I enjoy interacting with all of them.
I will make every attempt to communicate as quickly as I can regarding any issues that affect campus life, and I look forward to meeting in the months to come. I know how valuable an open line of communication is to you as a parent, so please know that it is my intention to keep that line open and answer any questions you may have.
Please feel free to email me at aoakley@connally.org or via campus phone number at 254-750-7100. As a professional staff, we remain committed to providing a safe campus where all students can learn, and I can't wait to see your child be successful here at Connally Elementary.
Best regards,
Alan R. Oakley
Principal
