11/21-11/25 Thanksgiving Holiday

11/30 Fall Picture Retakes (8-10 AM)

11/30 PTO General Meeting (8-9 AM)

11/30 PTO Sonic Spirit Night

As we break for the Thanksgiving holiday, we want to share gratitude for the Mustang Nation community. We appreciate this community and all you do to support us here at Mustang Nation. Whether or not you celebrate Thanksgiving, we want to encourage our community to share a moment of gratitude with your friends and family.

Mason students wrote thank you letters to our substitute teachers in honor of Substitute Teacher Appreciation Day. We are very grateful for our substitute teachers and appreciate their contribution to our schools! Our substitutes keep the learning going!

November is National Career Development Month! That means it's time to highlight the hard working parents and guardians of Mustang Nation. Parent Career Selfie sheets were sent home Wednesday, November 9th. We would love for each sheet to be filled out, so that our students can learn about all the jobs parents hold, as well as the skills and training required for each. Please send the sheet back with your child by November 30th. (Only one sheet needs to be completed if you have multiple children at Mason.) Thank you for participating and contributing to our students' knowledge of college and career readiness! Also, please mark your calendars for November 29th. All students are encouraged to dress up representing their future career OR to wear their favorite college shirt on this day!

Our Lost & Found is Overflowing!! We are looking for volunteers to help us sort & return items!

Did you purchase your tickets to the Leander Educational Excellence Foundation's January 28, 2023 Gala & Auction? You still have time and all details can be found here: www.leeftx.org/gala. We hope you can join us to support Leander ISD students and staff for a "roaring" great time!

Food Program @ Mason

Mason has a food program for families! For interested families, weekend meal kits are sent home each Friday with students in bags the student can put in their backpacks. In addition, at-school snacks may also be provided. If you believe your student/family would benefit from the program, please fill out the form here. You can select weekend meal kits, snacks, or both. Please complete just one form for the family if you have multiple students at Mason, but please list all of their names on the form. Feel free to reach out to me if you have questions or concerns! Amanda.King@leanderisd.org
