Thank you @GCEFCU for the Italian Ice treat for CCISD employees! My favorite credit union!

[Laura Mackay @lmackay]

Enjoyed the opportunity to engage with the BAHEP Aerospace Advisory Committee to ask for support for CCISD's new innovative high school course, Engineering Beyond Earth. It could be a field trip, a guest speaker, or help with curriculum. So lucky to live and work in this area!

@ClearCreekISD Makerspace Camp is busy and fun! 🌟

Packed booth. Great conversations. Cameras rolling at @EDUtech_AU 🎥

@MckennaJ72 discussing the power of PD and why supporting educators matters.

If you’re at EDUtech 🇦🇺, stop by to chat all things #VEXRobotics and be a part of the very best, most supportive Community.

From @techlearning: A school district in ECEP member-state Alabama is one of many to limit device access during school time. Administrators say results have been positive, though students still need device access.

Was honored to speak at the Communities In Schools - Bay Area retirement celebration about the impact Dr. Peter Wuenschel has had on the students of @ClearCreekISD. Congratulations to my friend Peter for 30 successful years of service.

I know it is the last week of school for many teachers! This has some good connections for the beginning of the year.

Excited to be awarded a @ccisd_ef grant with Tiffany Mynatt to purchase @AldrinFamilyFdn Moon and Mars maps for SCIS and then shared with all 10 intermediate schools! Students learn about moon and mars topography and can discuss possible landing sites. Thank you CCEF! #stemfun

[CLEAR CREEK VOLLEYBALL @Creek_Vball]

Myth:
Creek Volleyball isn't very good and has no winning tradition.

Fact:
Creek Volleyball has made the playoffs for 25 straight seasons, won 12 District Championships since 2001 and made it to the State Tournament 6 times in program history!

@clacctx Their pizza is really good!

[Laura Mackay @lmackay]

I missed teacher appreciation week but wanted to acknowledge the amazing Kara McGarvey and her work as a science coach @SCIS_CCISD. She made agar gels for the ENTIRE 8th grade, at least 6-8 hours of work and helped design our new capstone experience. She is one of a kind!

[Laura Mackay @lmackay]

A little shout out to Ann Hobing with the Lone Star Flight museum and Joyce Abbey with SAIC for being great community partners to CCISD! I appreciate their wisdom and all they do for children in our district.

[Jamieson Mackay @texasmackay]

At last night's @ClearView_HS senior awards banquet we heard powerful stories from students about how the school has given those students a place to belong and thrive. It's a great example of how we provide a world-class education for all students in @ClearCreekISD

[Laura Mackay @lmackay]

8th graders @SCIS_CCISD working with gel electrophoresis to solve a mystery by analyzing bacteria. Practicing real life skills including using the micropipette, electrophoresis machine and gel analysis. Thank you @ccisd_ef for the grant to fund this experience!

[Laura Mackay @lmackay]

Mrs. Toler’s science class explored bird adaptations including night vision. The students enjoyed the lab hunting for bugs at night using UV light. The “bugs” were certain beans painted with UV glowing paint. Adaptations matter for survival! Great day at @SCIS_CCISD !

[Susan Silva @sistasusan]

It was lovely to attend the At-Risk Appreciation Brunch this morning. We are so thankful for all the mentors, community members, and friends that help support our students in @ClearCreekISD! 🌟 We couldn’t do it without you.

[Laura Mackay @lmackay]

Jamieson’s financial experience and years volunteering in the school district help form a knowledge base we need on our CCISD board.

If you haven't voted yet, please exercise the most fundamental right we have in this country. As soon as I became a naturalized citizen, I have voted at every opportunity.

[Jamieson Mackay @texasmackay]

Was fortunate to have lunch with group of 2026 @ClearCreekISD seniors representing each high school. These students represent a bright future for our community. Thank you to the @clacctx for giving the district a platform to present about the great things happening in CCISD.
