Principal's Message
Volunteerism is the voice of the people put into action. These actions shape and mold the present into a future of which we can all be proud.” -Helen Dyer
Dear Razorback Community,
What a fantastic week it's been at Hogg New Tech! Our Glow Up Pep Rally stole the show, and we successfully completed the first round of STAAR testing. Wrapping up our SBDM committee's final meeting of the year, we're proud of the progress we've made. The community bond meeting at Hogg provided valuable updates on construction timelines, keeping everyone in the loop.
As we embark on a new week, our attention turns to showing appreciation for our indispensable office administrative duo, Ms. Juarez and Ms. Tellez. Their dedication keeps our campus running smoothly, and we're grateful to have the finest office staff in DISD.
On Tuesday, April 23, 2024, our 5th graders will tackle the Science STAAR. Closing out the week with a flourish, Friday, April 25, 2024, will feature three exciting events. Join us for Coffee and Registration with the Principal from 8:30-9:30 am, followed by the Razorback Lunch Bunch. During student lunches, we'll take the time to honor our invaluable parent volunteers.
If you require any assistance, remember that parent registration is now open. Don't hesitate to drop by our office – we're here to help!
Proud Principal of Hogg New Tech,
Ms. Molina
