VIP Invite to Tuesday 2/25 Event
We are excited to invite you to an evening of fun and learning at Mary Orr Intermediate! Our Time Travelers' Adventure (ELAR and Social Studies Family Engagement Night) is designed to give you an opportunity to learn more about the exciting curriculum your child is exploring in the classroom.
The main goal of this event is to showcase key components of our English Language Arts and Reading (ELAR) and Social Studies programs, and provide you with valuable tips and strategies to support your child’s learning at home.
Bring your student along and engage with our teachers as we explore:
- Interactive activities and lessons your child is currently studying
- Practical ways to support ELAR and Social Studies learning at home
- Tips for fostering a love of reading and learning
- Opportunities for Q&A with teachers
This is a great chance to connect with our staff, ask questions, and deepen your understanding of what your child is learning each day. We hope to see you there and look forward to an evening of fun, learning, and community!
Students attending this event must be accompanied by a parent.

Getting Ready for 7th Grade
Parents of Mary Orr 6th Graders,
Coming soon our 6th grade students will begin preparing for 7th grade! This year this process is going to be a little different as we have groups of students headed to different middle schools due to the MISD boundaries changing. I will share information for all of the middle schools as I receive it.
On March 3, staff from Worley Middle School will meet with all 6th grade students here at Orr during the school day. Students will learn about middle school and receive information on requesting courses for 7th grade. Our goal is to provide the Worley course request forms to those students moving to Worley, the Wester course request forms to those moving to Wester, and the Jobe request forms to those moving to Jobe. To be sure we cover all students, all information and forms for all 3 campuses will be shared out to parents via email on March 3.
Worley and Wester have parent orientation meetings in the near future. Please find all information provided for each campus by clicking on the links below.
If you missed previous communication about boundary changes or aren’t sure which middle school campus your child will attend, please find that information here: 2025-2026 Rezoning Option Information Letter
Watch for more information to come as we get closer to March.
