A Message from the Principal

Mustang Pride!
Happy Friday!
We have had a great week of learning! Remember we do not have school on Monday, January 20th in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
As we move into the new semester, it is important that we remember the importance of being at school each day. We understand that there are times that students cannot be here for various reasons. If your student is out due to a medical illness, it is important that you provide that documentation to our campus registrar, Sarah McHale. You may also email your documentation to sarah.mchale@leanderisd.org.
We have received reports of vandalism and middle school-aged students being on campus after hours and on top of the building at dark. Law enforcement has been notified, but we are asking for everyone to be on the lookout for anything you might see after business hours. If you do see anything suspicious, please contact law enforcement immediately.
Thank you to all of the wonderful parents and PTA who put together the breakfast taco carts for our staff this week. Your generosity put a pep in our step! Another shout out to Andrew Cook, the owner of Exaco Trading Co., for donating a composting bin to our garden!
We hope you have a great long weekend!
Lauren, Maggie, & Erin
