Celebrate your child's birthday and support McMillen at the same time! Pay $25 for your student's birthday to be posted on our School Marquee on their birthday. Please complete the details here and submit payment at least two weeks prior to the Monday of your child's birthday week - Ex: Child's birthday is 10/26, need to have form and payment submitted by Monday, 10/16. If payment is not received, name will not be displayed. Payments will be submitted through RYCOR at https://www.studentquickpay.com/pisd/.

On the day of the student's birthday, their first name and last initial will display under "HAPPY BIRTHDAY"!! Birthday on the Marquee orders will be accepted from August 16, 2024 thru January 31, 2025. Get your Panther's birthday in and don't miss that smile on the morning of their birthday when they see the marquee. Come snap a pic of your student by the marquee and start the day off with a smile. *If the marquee is not working, which is rare, their name will display the next working day.

We had some exciting results from the District science and engineering fair that was held at McMillen this weekend. Six out of our ten entered projects earned recognition. They were competing against all the other Plano high schools and senior highs and did very well. All these students have worked very hard all year. Next, they will all go to Regionals on Feb 15th.
