Important Information About Back to School:
Meet the Teacher is on Monday, August 16th from 6:00-7:30. This will be a come and go event. Parents are encouraged to drop off school supplies with their child's teacher.
The first day of school is on Wednesday, August 18th. Our campus is still closed to visitors with the exception of special occasions in order to keep our staff and students safe. Parents will not be able to enter the building on the first day of school to walk their child to their class, so make sure you get your first day of school pictures done before dropping your child off in the parent drop off line by the gym.
We can't wait to welcome students back for a great school year!

Car Drop Off and Pick Up INFORMATION
FOR 1ST DAY AND BEYOND
Drop-Off 7:00-7:40 a.m.
School Starts at 7:45 a.m.
Dismissal 3:00 p.m.
*On the 1st day of school, parents will not be allowed to get out of their car and walk their child to the door or into the building. Teachers will be outside waiting to welcome the students in their classes. Please be patient as this is not the norm for our 1st day procedures. We are trying to ensure safety for students, teachers and parents.
After the 1st day, staff will be at the parent drop off sign to open car doors for students. We have staff in place to make sure students get to the right place. We will only have 1 line so please watch staff (in case they ask you to pull up).
Dismissal - We will have 2 lanes for dismissal. Parents will not be allowed to walk up to gym doors to pick up students. Parents will need to pick up students in the car line. Please have your student’s name card visible so the process will go faster.
*B.B. Brown will be ONE way going north to south from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. every school day. This means you will not be able to turn on to B.B. Brown from Cadet Way if you are picking up your child from school.
CECC Procedures for Changing Type of Instruction
Parents/guardians were given the option to choose remote learning or in-person learning when completing registration. If a parent/guardian, who chose Virtual/Remote Instruction, wants their student to switch to On-Campus Instruction, they may do so by 12:00 p.m. on Wednesday, September 2nd.
Connally ISD will start in-person Instruction on September 8th. After September 8th and the rest of the 2020-2021 school year, parents/guardians will need to come to the office to complete a form to make changes to their child’s type of instruction. Connally ISD is permitted, by the TEA, to limit these transactions to occur only at the end of a grading period.
Please call the CECC office 254-750-7160 if you have any questions!
Good evening! My name is Misty Gerik and I'm the principal at Connally Early Childhood Center. I want to welcome you and your child to our campus. We are excited to get this school year started and would like to share a few things with you.
Things to expect for the First Day of School. Your child's teacher will be contacting you by phone, email, text, or SeeSaw before 10 a.m. Teachers and staff will be available to help you with login information or answer any questions you might have. If you are interested in scheduling individual zoom meetings, please mention this to your teacher so they can set up a time for you.
School start time will be 7:45 am and will end at 3:00 pm.
Parents if you need any information or documents concerning guidelines and instruction procedures please go to the Connally ISD webpage.
Please follow us on Connally Early Childhood Center Facebook page. We are always updating this page with new information. We have posted a video about how to download our LMS - SeeSaw for online learning. Please check it out!
