Back-to-School Reminders
We want the Spring 2024 semester to be a positive and productive semester for everyone. As we settle back into the swing of things, please be reminded:
- 1st period begins at 7:15 AM. Students are expected to be in their classes, ready-to-go at this time.
- All students who drive their vehicles to Miller must have a current MCTC parking permit. If you are a new driver or got a new vehicle over the holiday, please make sure you obtain a new parking permit.
- Students must wear their ID badges at all times during school hours, while on school property as part of district safety requirements.
- Students must follow the Katy ISD dress code while at Miller. Replacement clothing will be available for students who elect not to follow the dress code.
Please click on the "Dress for Success Model" button below for a quick visual reminder of dress code. Please click on the "MCTC Discipline Consequences" button below to review information regarding discipline assigned for tardy and dress code infractions.
2024 - 2025 Miller Course Requests
If you are currently a junior and plan to return to MCTC next year, please do not forget that you will need to submit a Miller course request, separate from the SchooLinks course selection process. Mark your calendars: The Miller course request will open Wednesday, January 17th at 7:00 AM. We will send out the link and reminders when the date nears.
Ms. Perez, our Admissions Specialist, will be visiting all year one classes and providing students with Miller course information.
Additionally, students and parents can attend our High School Preview Night in January, although not required. Please see the flyer below for details and please feel free to share with friends and neighbors.
Miller Video Crew named Texan Live Student Multimedia Program of the Year
Over the Christmas holiday, our very own Miller Video Crew was named the first-ever Texan Live Student Multimedia Program of the Year! Members were honored on the field of AT&T Stadium in Dallas before the 5A Texas State Championship game with a $2,500.00 check. We are so very proud of our students and Mrs. Thompson for all of their hard work in making our district's student-run program the best in the state!
