The McGovern girls basketball team is off to an amazing start this season! 🏀 With hard work, hustle, and a whole lot of heart, these athletes are showing what it means to play with passion and determination. Let’s keep the momentum going!
This week, McGovern students came together to create a paper chain of gratitude that stretches across our school! Each link represents something we're thankful for—family, friends, teachers, and all the little things that make life special. This is a reminder that gratitude connects us all. Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁
A reminder that there is NO SCHOOL on Wednesday, November 27th, through Friday, November 29th. This season reminds us how much we have to be grateful for, especially our amazing students, staff, and families! Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving break!
📅 Reminder: No school Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday! 🦃
