We are proud to recognize our students who achieved 100 AR points this year. These superstar readers earned a fun‑filled field trip to the McAllen Public Library, where they toured the library, read stories, played games, and took on a scavenger hunt. They wrapped up the day at Peter Piper Pizza with delicious food and tons of fun with their friends.










We proudly celebrated our third graders and their outstanding accomplishments during today’s awards ceremony. The variety of certificates, medals, and trophies they received demonstrates how hard they worked all year. We are very proud of them and excited to see them continue their success in fourth grade.

This group showed incredible heart, dedication, teamwork, and determination all season long. They believed in each other, worked hard every day, and left their mark on McAuliffe history forever.
A special thank you to Russel and JD from Hendricks Elementary for joining our team and helping make this championship run possible. Your contributions and support meant so much to this journey!
The future of Nikki Rowe Baseball is bright, and we cannot wait to see what this talented group accomplishes at the next level. Once a champion, always a champion! ❤️⚾

Today is National Principals Day, and it gives us a meaningful opportunity to appreciate the heart of our school leadership.
Being a principal is so much more than a title—it’s showing up every single day with patience, strength, and care for students, staff, and families. It’s carrying the weight of tough decisions while still finding time to celebrate small victories, encourage others, and make sure every child feels seen and supported.
We are deeply grateful for everything you do to keep our school moving forward with purpose and compassion.
A special, heartfelt thank you to our Principal, Mrs. Caldwell. Your dedication, kindness, and steady leadership do not go unnoticed. You make a lasting difference in the lives of so many, and we are truly fortunate to have you guiding our campus.
Happy National Principals Day! We appreciate you more than words can fully express.
