We know the school year isn’t ending quite how we wanted ⛈️, but on the bright side we still have our last spirit night of the year tomorrow at Chuck E. Cheese! We hope you can join us as we celebrate an otherwise amazing year!

Secondly, a HUGE congratulations to Ms. Staes, Mrs. Rodriguez, Ms. Stevens, Mr. Lopez, Mrs. Hopson, and Mrs. Moulton’s homeroom classes for being our TOP BOOSTERthon fundraisers and earning a FREE pizza party! 🍕

But this celebration isn’t just for the winners — EVERYONE is invited to come hang out, play games, celebrate the end of the school year, and help support our school one last time this year! 🎉

Nolan Ryan Junior High National Junior Honor Society students stopped by to decorate our sidewalks with uplifting messages for our Mary Burks Marek Elementary students during STAAR testing! 💙

We love seeing student leaders spread kindness and support. Good luck to all our test-takers… you’ve got this! 🌟
