Today's Red Ribbon Week theme at McCord was "Team Up Against Drugs" and students were encouraged to wear a t-shirt or jersey of their favorite team and/or player. There were plenty of Lions roaming the halls, along with some Cowboys, Rangers and a few Michael Jordans!
This week McCord is celebrating Red Ribbon Week and today's theme was "Put A Cap On Drugs," with students and teachers alike wearing their favorite cap/hat to school. There was even a sighting of a mini Deion Sanders!!
The Lions Roar Tailgate held Friday leading up to the Lions' game against Bowie was a fantastic success! From busy food trucks to kids enjoying all the games, it was an evening full of fun and community spirit. A huge thanks goes out to everyone who set up, participated, and came out to make this event amazing! When our school and community comes together, great things happen. Here's to positive collaboration for a thriving town and school system!!

DPS State Trooper Gutierrez (aka Trooper G) stopped by McCord Wednesday to talk to students about basic safety -- the importance of knowing their own address and phone number, and how/when to dial 911 for emergencies. Trooper G also discussed Halloween safety tips with the students. Those trick or treat safety tips included: staying with an adult; using a flashlight or glow stick in the dark; and to have an adult check their candy before they start to eat it.
On Wednesday, students in Mrs. Newcomer's class conducted a science experiment to see if the shape and size of a magnet made a difference in how many paper clips it could pick up.
