We've made it to the end!
Hello Tiger Families!
I hope that you are all well, and have power restored and are ready to finish the school year this week strong. The schedule for finals is below, and notice that on Thursday, we have an early dismissal, and lunch will not be served. Also please remember that we do NOT allow "door dash" or food deliveries, especially during this week. :)
It is recommended that students begin their PE locker cleanout, and begin taking things home they don't need, and we prefer that students do not bring backpacks on Thursday.
I thank you for sharing your students with me this year, and I am so proud of what they have done in the classroom, on the stage, in concert and in athletic events. I am proud of how our students conduct themselves and I am honored to have served as their principal this year. I hope you have a safe and happy summer and wish those going to MRHS and KHS in the fall the absolute best that high school has to offer!
Mrs. Lowery
Rumored Campus Threat Update
As you know, last week, communication was sent to you about a rumored campus threat. We are still working in conjunction with Katy ISD police and have conducted numerous interviews, home visits and are continuing to encourage students to share FIRST HAND knowledge of any threat made toward the school, or any individual directly with me or an assistant principal.
While the consistent message last week included a specific student, there was not evidence that there was a specific threat. Many students shared the same "story" via social media, in text messages to each other and in person. I would encourage you to talk to your child about how to share information and what happens when false or "half-truth" messages continue to be shared.
Please know we are still taking all precautions and students can be assured we are listening and are proactively ensuring a safe end to the school year.
Please reach out to me directly, and encourage your students to do the same, if there is specific information I should be aware of.
Thank you!
Finals Schedule and end of grading period!
Students should be working hard to complete any missing work, or do re-testing if needed this week, as we start finals soon! The schedule is below. Students are not allowed to take finals early, so if your student misses a final, they will need to contact the grade level AP or counselor to make arrangements to come take the finals once school has been dismissed. We ask that you make every effort to attend school all the way until the end if possible.
Congrats to our 8th Grade Girls Soccer Team Blue Division District Champions!

We Love our Volunteers!
Katy ISD is excited to continue the implementation of the District’s Raptor Volunteer Initiative for the this school year. The district requires all volunteers serving on campus during the instructional day to register with the district through its Raptor security system.
Raptor ensures quick and easy volunteer registration allowing individual volunteers to create and manage a personal volunteer profile. In addition, the Raptor Volunteer Initiative will:
- Provide an additional layer of protection for Katy ISD students, staff, volunteers, and campus visitors
- Unite all district volunteers into one Katy ISD volunteer community
- Measure and communicate the positive impact of Katy ISD volunteer organizations

Dress Code for 23-24
We will review this with students, and videos will be posted to help parents make appropriate purchases for back to school clothing. If you have questions, please contact your student's grade level assistant principal, or Mrs. Lowery.
