WILDCAT Weekly September 3, 2026
Wildcat Families,
Another great week is in the books at Walnut Grove!
Thank you to everyone who came out for our first Coffee with the Lead Counselor and Principal. It was great connecting with so many of you in person and online. Thanks to our amazing video production team, we managed to capture the whole session on video. You are welcome to click the link below to catch up on what was shared.
We also had a fantastic turnout at our NHS meeting, handing out over 300 applications! If your student picked one up, please help them keep an eye on the due date. Questions about the application can go to Mrs. Mitchell or Mrs. Garcia here at school.
Looking ahead, I want to encourage every family to attend the College, Career and Military Fair this Tuesday, September 8, at Richland High School from 6:00–8:00 PM. It's a great chance to explore everything PISD has to offer and start preparing your student for their next step after high school.
I hope you and your family have a safe and enjoyable Labor Day. We'll see you back at WG next Tuesday.
Have an amazing weekend and GO CATS!
Dustin Toth

Not every student is headed down the same path, and Prosper ISD is built to meet them on it. On Tuesday, September 8, from 6–8 PM at Richland High School, families can meet with colleges, trade schools, and military branches all in one place. It's a chance for students to ask questions and explore the options waiting for them, whatever direction they're headed.
