Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year !!!
THE GREEN FLAG HAS DROPPED
Connally Middle School is officially off to the races! Classrooms are buzzing with active learning, Fine Arts performers are dialing in their routines, and Coyote athletes are stepping onto the field, court, and track to kick off their seasons.
Here is what our campus pit crew has been working on to keep our drivers on the track to success:
Counselor "Howdy" Lessons: Our counseling team recently visited classrooms to introduce themselves and explain their role on campus. Think of counselors as your student's personal pit crew—ready to tune up academic plans, support mental well-being, and assist with relationship building.
High School Credit Orientation: Counselors met with all students enrolled in high school credit courses and covered the exact requirements needed to earn high school credit, emphasizing that daily attendance is the ultimate key to staying in pole position and avoiding academic penalties.
Upcoming Pit Stop: Open House & Meet the Teacher
Mark your calendars! We invite all families and students to join us for our upcoming Open House. It’s the perfect opportunity to:
Tour the Campus: Navigate your student's daily lap around the building.
Meet the Faculty: Connect directly with classroom teachers, coaches, and directors.
Explore CMS Programs: Learn more about the wide array of student support services, clubs, and academic pathways offered at Connally Middle School.
Thank you for partnering with us to make this school year a winning one. See you at Pit Stop #2.

Mission Statement
The Coyote Counseling Department is committed to fostering a community of lifelong learners.
In collaboration with parents, teachers, administrators, and the broader community, our school counselors support students in achieving growth across all areas—academic, personal, social, and emotional.
The Texas Model for Comprehensive School Counseling Programs is an integral part of each student's total educational program. It is developmental and systematic in nature and vital to the achievement in education for all students. Comprehensive school counseling programs organize resources to meet the priority needs of all students through four delivery service components:
Guidance Curriculum, Individual Planning, Responsive Services, and System Support.
The Four Components of a Comprehensive School Counseling Program
Guidance Curriculum
Throughout the school year, counselors focus on delivering the guidance curriculum with the purpose to help all students develop transferable skills relative to their educational, career, personal, and social and emotional development.
The four strategic curricular content areas are Intrapersonal Effectiveness, Interpersonal Effectiveness, Post-Secondary Planning and Career Readiness, and Personal Health and Safety.
Topics for delivery may include helping students develop a positive self-concept, effective conflict resolution skills, motivation to succeed in personal endeavors, and the demonstration of resiliency and coping skills.
Individual Planning
The purpose of individual planning is to guide all students as they learn to plan, monitor, and manage their own goals.
Efforts are consistently made to meet with students individually or in groups using a variety of resources to assist students in developing and implementing personalized plans.
Various considerations are made during the individual planning process to ensure inclusivity of all students regarding multi-cultural consideration, special populations, multiple intelligences, and academic implications with regards to specialized circumstances and/or services.
Responsive Services
The purpose of responsive services is to support all students in their time of need and intervene on behalf of those whose immediate circumstances or concerns interfere with their daily functioning.
All students are provided equitable access to school counseling services with the purpose of providing preventative or remedial services for the development of foundational skills.
At times, these services may elevate to crisis services that could involve specific protocols that include district policies and procedures as well as state law.
System Support
The purpose of system support is to identify and coordinate resources and activities on campus and in the community that indirectly benefit students.
System support, the foundation of the school counseling program assists with identifying the various needs of the students and campus through consultation with school staff and interpretation of data.
In collaboration with parents, teachers, administrators, and the community, Counselors are able to advocate for student needs and plan and implement programs that benefit all students throughout the school year.
