Principal's Weekly Message

Welcome to this week's edition of the Boerne Middle School North Newsletter!

As we wrap up the first nine weeks of the school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on what has been an incredible start to the year at Boerne Middle School North. Nine weeks have gone by quickly, and I could not be more proud of our students, staff, and the North community.
Our students have continued to demonstrate what it means to be a Greyhound. I have seen students challenge themselves academically, support one another, compete with pride, and step up as leaders across our campus. Whether in the classroom, on the athletic field, in the fine arts, or through one of our many student organizations, our Greyhounds continue to make us proud.

I also want to recognize our incredible staff. The dedication, energy, and commitment our teachers and staff bring to North every day is what makes this campus special. They work tirelessly to provide meaningful learning experiences, build relationships with students, and create an environment where every student can succeed. I am grateful for the work they do each and every day.

To our families, thank you for your partnership and support. Middle school is a unique journey, and we know that our students are most successful when school and home work together. Thank you for trusting us with your children and for supporting the work we are doing at North.

As we look ahead to the next nine weeks, our focus remains simple: True North! We will continue to challenge our students academically, strengthen relationships, celebrate success, and hold ourselves to the high expectations that define Boerne Middle School North.

There is a lot to be proud of after nine weeks, but I truly believe our best is still ahead of us.
Thank you for making North such a special place to be. 

Have a great Fall break and Go Greyhounds! 

With gratitude,
Garrett Carr
Principal

Oct. 13- Parent Teacher Conferences

With the end of the grading period coming up soon, we welcome parents and guardians to schedule a conference with their child’s teachers on Tuesday, October 13th. Conferences are a great way to celebrate student progress, address questions, and work together to support continued growth. If you would like to set up a conference either in person or over the phone with a teacher, please reach out to them directly by phone or email. As always, Skyward is another great communication tool to continue the home/school communication. Please continue to check your child’s Skyward grades and attendance weekly. Our students know how to do this as well, but it is another great communication tool for student and parent talks as well. We value your partnership and look forward to connecting with you.

North takes a week off before they wrap up their season against Fred during Homecoming week on Oct. 20. 7th grade will be home as we celebrate youth football night and KO cheer night! Go Hounds!
