Five busy weeks remain in the 2020-2021 school year. If you see a teacher in public, tell them how much you appreciate their efforts. We appreciate all the parents’ efforts at home to ensure student success. We have a great community, students, teachers and staff. Words of Encouragement are needed as staff, parents, and students made the COVID-19 journey together for the past two school years. Kind words made the journey more bearable! There is light at the end of the tunnel as COVID vaccinations continue for our country. Hopefully the entire State of Texas will return to near normal by next school year. Please pray for our schools and our country.
Community involvement is the key to our success!
