Dear Bulldog Family,


I trust this letter finds you well and rested after a well-deserved winter break. As we commence the second semester of the academic year, I extend a warm welcome to all our students, faculty, and staff. I am particularly excited to address our graduating seniors who are on the cusp of an exciting new chapter in their lives.


Seniors, you have reached a crucial juncture in your high school journey, and your commitment and perseverance have brought you to the threshold of graduation. As we embark on the second semester, I want to encourage each of you to stay focused, maintain a positive mindset, and continue to demonstrate the leadership qualities that have defined your time here at McHi.


The road to graduation can be challenging, but it is essential to remember that every effort you put in now will contribute to your success in the future. Use this semester to reflect on your goals, make the most of your remaining time in high school, and leave a lasting legacy for those who will follow in your footsteps.


To all our students, regardless of grade level, I want to emphasize the importance of finishing the year strong. The second semester presents new opportunities for academic and personal growth, and I encourage each of you to set realistic goals, seek challenges, and make the most of the resources available to you.


Faculty and staff are here to support you on your journey, so do not hesitate to reach out if you need guidance or assistance. Parents and guardians, I appreciate your ongoing support and collaboration in ensuring that our students have the best possible high school experience.


Let us approach the remainder of the academic year with determination, enthusiasm, and a collective commitment to excellence. Together, we can make the second semester a period of significant achievement and personal growth for every member of our Bulldog community.


Thank you for your dedication and hard work, and I look forward to celebrating the accomplishments of each student as we conclude this academic year.


Best wishes for a successful second semester!


Warm regards,

Dr. Albert Canales

Principal, McAllen High School
