Holly Jolly Jingle

Christmas is coming! Every year the season seems to sneak in unannounced, and every year we almost seem to miss it. But every year, somehow, we manage to catch hold of the feeling for a few wonderful moments, to let the joy and wonder overtake us – to remember how to be kids again. That’s why Holly Jolly Jingle is so important. Not only is it a wonderful showcase of the talented student musicians from Conroe ISD, but it also helps usher in that elusive holiday spirit with music and merriment, and maybe a little snowfall of magic, too. Come hear these CISD students perform, come grab a picture with Santa, come sing a carol or two – and just try not to get swept up in that holiday feeling.
