  • Congratulations MLCPA PTO!

    The PTO Executive Board is very happy to confirm that we have been approved for our grant "We Are the Knights" from the HISD Ideation Fund, in the amount $7800.  The grant was approved based on the proposal for the PTO to train our middle and high school student council representatives as well as their respective teacher sponsors on: what it means (and how) to run for student council, the respective roles and responsibilities, peer engagement, leadership, fundraising, coordination, collaboration and communication. The PTO President, MS (middle school) Vice President and HS (high school) Vice President will be hosting and facilitate the training next semester with current and potential student council nominees and teacher sponsors. 

    Job Well Done!

  • Hello Parents! 

    We are few days closer to the start of the new school year and I wanted to be sure you received our updated uniform guidelines and requirements. One big change this year, is the return of the MLCPA School Blazer. The MLCPA school blazer fosters a sense of unity and identity within the school community, promoting a professional and cohesive appearance. Donning the MLCPA school blazer boosts confidence and self-esteem, as our young men project a polished image that reflects their commitment to both their education and personal growth.  MLCPA School Blazers are on sell now, so purchase your son's as soon as possible.   

     

    The MLCPA School Pay link is active! So, if you pre-ordered your son's uniform items (neckties, cardigan, sweater vest, etc.) during our New Knights Orientation in June, you may now login to https://www.schoolpay.com/ and pay for those items. If you are a returning student and need to order some uniform items you may also login to https://www.schoolpay.com/ order and prepay for your uniform items too. 

     

    Please review the following uniform guidelines and reach out if you have questions or concerns. 

     

    Thank you! 

     

    Dr. Crook
