We are excited for tomorrow's varsity football game against the Gatesville Hornets! Please take a moment to review our Athletic Event Regulations. The fun of Friday Night Lights can only happen if our students and guests are working hard to uphold the #CadetStandard! Please be mindful that any student enrolled in 8th grade or below must be accompanied by an adult at all times throughout the game. We ask that fans remain seated in the stands unless they are actively headed to the restrooms or concession stand. Fans that are found to be in noncompliance of these guidelines will be asked to leave the game without a refund. Connally ISD administrators can be found patrolling areas under the bleachers and around the restrooms and concession stands. If you have a concern, please do not hesitate to reach out to an administrator so that they may help resolve any issues.

We are deeply saddened to hear news of the passing of Coach Max Hibbitts. Coach Hibbitts was a longtime employee of Connally ISD. From the classroom to the starting line of the track, Coach Hibbitts never left any doubt that he cared about each and every student that he worked with. He exemplified the Cadet Standard in everything that he did, and it is because of his legacy that our students continue to “GO FOR THE GOLD!” Our thoughts are with his family as they navigate this difficult time.

“NO MATTER WHAT THE SCORE, THE CONNALLY SPIRIT WILL NOT BE UPSET!” Our Cadets came up short against a tough team from La Vega tonight. We are proud of their strong effort and have no doubt that they will use it as momentum for future games! The next varsity football game will be held on November 8 vs Gatesville.

Following proper Halloween Safety Procedures is part of the #CadetStandard! We hope that everyone has a fun and safe celebration this evening!
