Dear McGowen Families,

Thank you for a great start to the 2024-2025 school year! Our students did a fantastic job these past two days learning and reviewing our McGowen expectations. We are so proud of each of them!

Thank you also for your patience with carpool these past two days. We promise it will go faster as our students learn their dismissal numbers. If your child dismisses by carpool, it would be very helpful to have your child practice his/her dismissal number at home.

If you have not yet seen our new McKinney ISD webpage and McGowen website, please check out the link below. Our new McGowen webpage will also show the feed to our recent McGowen Facebook post. This is a great way to keep up with upcoming events and stay connected to our school.

We hope everyone has a restful and relaxing weekend. We will see everyone back on Monday!

Sincerely,

Kim Luyster, Principal & Sylvia Lloyd, Assistant Principal

It is very important that our parents and students have knowledge of the McKinney ISD Student Code of Conduct and Student Handbook. Please make sure you and your student are aware of what is against our MISD Code of Conduct.

Thank You for partnering with us to ensure that all of our students have a safe place to learn

that is free from disruptions.

Sincerely,

Kim Luyster
