Dear Cedar Valley Families,
This week was a short week, but we have a few important updates and reminders for you as we head into the weekend: Choice Sheets Extended: The deadline for 2026-2027 choice sheets has been extended. All rising 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade students now have until Sunday, February 22 at 11:59 p.m. to submit their selections.
Recycling Challenge: Get ready to help our environment! Please start saving your plastic shopping bags at home. Our campus collection for the upcoming recycling challenge begins on March 2. Walk for Wishes: Don't forget that this Sunday, February 22 is the final day to purchase your shirts for the NJHS Walk for Wishes carnival. Remember, your shirt serves as your ticket to the event on March 7! Thank you for your continued support of our students and campus. Go Jags! Larissa Ortiz Principal, Cedar Valley Middle School |
EXTENDED DUE DATE: Choice Sheets Due Sunday, Feb. 22 |
Choice sheets for the 2026-2027 school year were emailed to RRISD student email accounts on Friday, Feb. 13. The email also included helpful information from the parent night presentations, as well as the counselors' contact information. All rising 6th, 7th, and 8th grade choice sheets are now due on Sunday, Feb. 22 at 11:59pm. |
We want to remind parents and students that food and drinks are not permitted in the hallway. All food must remain packed away and drinks are only allowed in resealable bottles when in the hallway. If your child is trying to finish breakfast from home in the morning, we ask that all food and drinks be consumed in the cafeteria. If your child arrives with food and/or drinks from restaurants or nearby coffee shops, it will need to be finished or disposed of before entering the hallway. |

Community Communication Sign Up |
Currently, our campus communications are limited to students, parents, and staff.
We recognize that many other important family members and community members wish to stay informed (e.g., grandparents, stepparents, local supporters). We are pleased to announce that in the near future, we will be launching a dedicated "Community" communication list.
If you know of someone who is not currently receiving our updates, please ask them to sign up to join this new list. Once our new system is fully operational, it will take approximately one week after completing the sign-up form for recipients to begin receiving campus communications. |
Our district is providing families access to GoGuardian Parent, a mobile app designed to provide parents/guardians insight and control over their student's online activity when on school-managed devices and accounts. GoGuardian Parent was created to help provide students additional educational support and is a companion to the classroom engagement and internet filtering tools that our school uses. The GoGuardian Parent app provides an overview of the apps, extensions, documents, and websites your student visited, as well as internet controls that you can set for out-of-school hours.
Learn more about GoGuardian Parent here. |
Round Rock ISD Clothes Closet Donations

The Clothes Closet is a project run by the local PTA's of Round Rock ISD. It offers good, gently used clothes to all students in the district who have need. Once per semester, each student can use this service. No referral necessary, just turn up to one of the two locations during opening hours.
In our ongoing support for RRISD's Clothes Closet we are always keen to take your donations of tops, bottoms, jackets/hoodies. Clothes must be in great, clean condition with no tears, stains, bobbling etc. We also need, NEW ONLY boxer briefs style underwear for girls and boys, plus teen appropriate sports bras. Please deliver to the Jag lobby.
Alternatively, you may wish to support by donating directly using the Amazon wishlist.

There is always a need for happy helpers with a "can do" attitude at the Clothes Closet. For more information about what this would entail contact clothescloset@cevmspta.org or sign up directly. Volunteering with the Clothes Closet is a great way to support families in our wider community. No experience necessary. Spanish speaking volunteers are particularly helpful.

One of the best ways to show your student that education is important to you, is by volunteering at their school. There are lots of different ways to contribute your time, support and resources. Please fill out the Volunteer Interest Form below to help us match your interests with the school's needs (such as Staff Appreciation, Concessions, Fundraising or School Dances).
