A message from Dr. Curry...

Happy Friday Tiger Parents ,   

It is going to be a great weekend to stay in and watch football or read.   I hope you are inside where it is dry. 

Thank you for everyone who participated in the fundraiser.  We appreciate the support and look forward to using the money to support or students and staff.  If you still have orders, please bring them to the front office or your history teacher on Monday.

If your child has a concern about another student or if a student needs to talk to a counselor, please direct them to speak with Ms. Hjartberg or Mr. Gaffney. You can email them at  chjartberg@mckinneyisd.net  sgaffney@mckinneyisd.net or you can use this link to fill out a google doc.
