Message from Principal Jackson
Dear Panther Parents, With less than TWO WEEKS to go, we are getting more and more excited to start this school year!! Our teachers come back to campus on Monday and they are ready to begin designing lessons and preparing for an amazing start! 6th graders ONLY: PANTHER PALOOZA is August 9th from 9:00-12:00 at Evans. Schedules will be released to view on August 9th at 8:00, but if you are unable to print or bring a schedule for your child, no worries. We will have all 6th grade schedules printed for those who need one. IF you are needing to pick one up, I would encourage you to get to Evans a little early because we will begin 1st period at 9:10 sharp! We don’t want you to miss meeting each of your child’s teachers. We will walk 1st-7th periods then students will head to the gyms for some fun and parents will join me in the Cafeteria for an “All Things Evans” presentation. At 11:30, please join us on the back porch for a complimentary hot-dog picnic! Officer Pruett will be grilling up the dogs, we will have chips and cold water available for students and their families. Pre-ordered school supplies and spirit wear will be available for pick-up, and you can also join PTO and order spirit-wear. We have also arranged for Kona Ice to be there if you would like to purchase a cold-sweet treat! Please remember that this event is designed for you to meet your child’s teachers. Our 6th grade teachers will not be present/available during the Meet the Teacher night designated for our 7th and 8th graders. You are still welcome to walk your child’s schedule that night from 4:30-6:00, but again, 6th grade teachers will not be available. 7th and 8th graders ONLY: Meet the Teacher Night is August 9th from 4:30-6:00. This event is come-and-go and self-paced. Please keep in mind this is not a time to hold a conference with a teacher as our teachers are wanting to mingle with as many students as possible in this limited time. If you need to meet with a teacher, please feel free to request a conference via email. ALL students must have a POR on file and have registration completed BEFORE the school year begins. By not having your child’s registration completed, CANVAS and other digital tools could be disabled. We definitely don’t want that, so please help us out by being proactive in completing this process. Thank you in advance for your help with this. August 12th marks the first day of school and we can’t wait to see our Panthers!!

2021-22 Free Lunches and Application Process
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) issued guidance that allows schools to offer meals to all students at no cost for the 2021-2022 school year. McKinney will be participating in the USDA waivers for free meals once again this school year. Healthy meals will be offered every school day to all students at no cost.
Typically, a student’s household must meet income eligibility requirements to qualify for free or reduced-price meals. While no application or eligibility determination is required for your student to receive free meals this school year, income eligibility requirements will likely resume in the 2022-2023 school year. As such, McKinney ISD will process household applications during School Year 2021-2022 to ensure student eligibility for free or reduced-price meals during the first 30 days of the 2022-2023 school year
Starting on August 3rd we will begin processing online applications as well as accepting written applications. Food Service strongly encourages families to apply online this year, however, we will provide schools with paper applications. Every school will be distributed a minimal amount of paper applications for parents to pick up if requested. We are asking each school to communicate or post the following link in newsletters, social media, or other forms of communication http://www.mckinneyisd.schoollunchapp.com/
