Your child has access to many valuable and reliable resources. Have your student log into the Conroe ISD SSO portal and browse the many programs available there. Your student can also access his/her account in Destiny. This is the library catalog used at school. You can see what books are checked out, put books on hold (3rd/4th graders), and view the amount a book costs if it needs to be replaced.
