McMillen High School takes pride in preparing our diverse community of students in a safe and supportive environment to inspire them to be successful lifelong learners.

Relationships. Relevance. Rigor.

Parents, this year McMillen High School is cashless. Everything, including ID fees must be paid online this year through Rycor.

Parents, please remember after school pick up is in the back parking lot only, NOT the bus lane. We appreciate your attention to our students' safety.

Any student without an ID will have another one printed for them. They will be charged $5 for each ID badge that is replaced.

Please read the Library Notification Letter to Parents in English or Spanish.

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.

Every year in AVID one of our most impacting components of the program is having guest speakers share about their profession. McMillen AVID students are always thinking about college majors, and they love exposure to as many as possible. That's where guest speakers help the most. Whether you own a business, are in the medical profession, the world of transportation, hospitality, engineering, law, human relations, trade professions…we would love to schedule you to speak to our students. They are always interested and have an abundance of questions. If you would be willing to come share your profession with us, or if you know someone who would like to come be a guest speaker in our AVID classes, please contact Mike Abney, our AVID Coordinator, at michael.abney@pisd.edu. Please consider sharing what you do with our students! We're looking forward to hearing from you.

Come support Plano East Hockey!
