Dear Bearkat Community,

How are we already in November? If you did not know, October and February are the hardest months for public schools. Students are tired, academic challenges begin to arise, and family calendars are overflowing. However, we have successfully made it through one of those months. Kudos to each of you for partnering with us to help your children be successful.


With November being National Gratitude Month, we want to start by sharing that we are thankful for our families who entrust us with their children each and every day. We are truly the most blessed school in the great state of Texas, with amazing children.


Let's continue Achieving Excellence Together!
