Dreams to Degrees College Fair

From September 15 through October 15, join Crowley ISD as we highlight historical figures, art, dance, food, cuisine and much more from the Hispanic culture. The 2023 Hispanic Heritage Month theme, "Todos Somos, Somos Uno: We Are All, We Are One," reinforces the diversity inherent within the Hispanic community, as well as the power that comes from being a united community.

The district will host the annual Hispanic Heritage Quiz Bowl on Saturday, Oct. 21 at North Crowley High School. You won't want to miss the Opening Ceremonies, starting at 9 a.m. in the auditorium. Spend the morning checking out the art showcase and enjoying live performances and games for all.

Join the Crowley ISD Superintendent each month for Mondays with Dr. McFarland on Zoom. We had more than 200 families log-on for our first meeting in September. Our next meeting is Monday, Oct. 16 at 12 p.m. or 6 p.m. and will feature conversations about bullying prevention.

Mark your calendars for future Mondays with Dr. McFarland this school year:

• Monday, Nov. 13, 2023
• Monday, Dec. 11, 2023

On Saturday, Oct. 14, We had over 1,500 people and around 600 families show up at Richard Allie Middle School to view the historic annular solar eclipse.

The event started inside the building with games, food trucks and learning sessions before everyone moved outside to view the eclipse safely from the football field.

In Crowley ISD, we act like a family and work like a team! A big part of our family is the Special Services team that serves children on every campus in the district. On Tuesday, Oct. 17, you can meet the Special Services staff who provide services for your child. We will have our Adaptive PE teachers, Autism Specialists, Behavior Specialists and Interventionists, Diagnosticians, Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, SpEd Counselors, Social Workers, LSSPs, Physical Therapists, Visual Impairment teachers and others on-site to meet you and answer any questions you have.

This is a come-and-go event and refreshments will be served.

Time: 6-7:30 p.m.

Location: Bill R. Johnson CTE Center (Room A117)

Address: 4500 Longhorn Trail, Crowley, TX 76036
