Principal's Message

Blossom by blossom the spring begins.-Algernon Charles Swinburne

Dear Razorback Community,

We were thrilled to welcome back our learners, and the first week back proved to be incredibly productive. Our 2nd and 4th graders had a fantastic time exploring the Perot Museum and Children’s Theater off campus.

The PreK and kindergarten students delivered an amazing performance, followed by the recognition of our February and March Razorbacks of the Month.

To conclude the week, Mr. Lee, Principal of Hector P. Garcia, engaged our 3rd-5th grade parents, presenting the array of programs available as students transition to middle school. We extend our gratitude to parents who joined us for our Razorback Lunch Bunch.

Currently, we are in the process of planning our Solar Eclipse Viewing Plan for April 8th! Parent opt-out letters outlining our campus plan for the solar eclipse viewing will be sent out next week.

Campus registration is set to open on April 1st. Should you require assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to Ms. Tellez.

Proud Principal of Hogg New Tech,

Ms. Molina
