🎓 Attention Parents of High School Students! 🎓
Starting with the 2026–2027 school year, Texas high school students have a new graduation requirement designed to make applying to college much easier: My Texas Future Direct Admissions.
What is My Texas Future?
https://www.mytexasfuture.org/
It’s a free state platform created by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB). It helps students explore Texas careers, check potential earnings, and automatically see which public Texas colleges they qualify for based on their grades!
What does your student need to do to meet this graduation requirement?
To graduate, every student must complete one of the following options:
1. Opt-In: Create a profile on MyTexasFuture.org and choose to participate in the direct admissions program.
2. Parent/Guardian Opt-Out: A parent or guardian submits a signed form choosing not to participate. https://tea.texas.gov/educators/graduation-information/foundation-high-school-program
3. Student Opt-Out (18+): If the student is 18 or older, they can sign and submit the opt-out form themselves.
4. Counselor Opt-Out: A school counselor provides written authorization for the student to opt out.
Go to ParentSquare to let the principal know you completed one requirement.
This requirement gives our students a clear head start on planning for life after high school! 🌟
📩 Have questions or need an opt-out form? Reach out to your high school principal today!

🚗 Morning Drop-Off Reminder 🚗
Pirate Families,
We want to help keep our morning drop-off running safely and smoothly for everyone. Please remember to pull your vehicle over and out of the main flow of traffic when dropping off students. Stopping or parking in the middle of the street prevents other vehicles from passing and can cause traffic to back up quickly.
If you need to park and get out of your vehicle, please pull into a designated parking space rather than leaving your vehicle in the roadway.
This adjustment during our busy morning drop-off time will help keep traffic moving and make everyone’s morning a little easier.
Thank you for helping us keep drop-off safe, efficient, and moving! 🧡🏴☠️
One Crew. One Course.
The safe room at the school is unlocked for those seeking shelter.
If plan to attend the Homecoming pep rally at 3:15 pm today, please call ahead to have your badge ready. 806.835.2533. Badges will be ready at the front entrance to the big gym.
