CISD Parents - The district is aware of the recent concerning behavior in other Houston-area school districts regarding students ingesting THC-infused gummies. THC is the psychoactive substance found in marijuana.
Substances containing THC - such as CBD gummies, Delta 8, and herbal supplements - may be legally purchased by those 18 years of age and older, however, these substances ARE NOT regulated by the FDA. This means that what is listed on the package is not verified by dose, strength, or additional substances. The concentration and strength of THC in these edible products are very difficult to measure and are often unknown.
Those who have consumed cannabis edibles may:
Act lethargic.
Feel dizzy.
Have trouble walking or sitting up.
Have an accelerated heart rate.
Have trouble breathing.
We would like for everyone to be aware that even “legal” substances can still bring harm. In the cases of student hospitalizations at other districts, it is suspected there were additional substances in these gummies. Fentanyl and other illegal substances have been found in these products. Please talk to your students about the dangers of drugs, edibles, and other assumed “natural” supplements. We want you to know that we will continue with our efforts to ensure every campus is safe for our students.
LEGAL DOES NOT MEAN SAFE!

Cleveland ISD has implemented a new shared vision and mission with guiding documents. Our shared vision was created by stakeholders for stakeholders, including parents and students. Throughout the school year, we will survey our families on three occasions to measure our progress in implementing the shared vision and determine areas where continuous improvement is needed. Additionally, this survey will provide a high-level overview of our families' perceptions of their overall CISD experiences. Open-ended responses at the end of the survey will allow you to provide more specific information that may not have been asked or addressed in the questions listed in the survey. If you have students enrolled at multiple campuses, please complete one survey for each of the campuses your children attend.
The Middle of the Year [MOY] survey is open January 22-February 2, 2024. Data collected in this survey is anonymous, and we ask for and appreciate your authentic insight and feedback. The Strategic Planning Team will use the survey results in February to reflect on our progress and make any adjustments to our implementation plans. Please take the time to participate in our survey. Your feedback is critical in our continued pursuit of a shared vision for all stakeholders, especially our students. Thank you in advance for your time and continued commitment to Cleveland ISD.
