Dear McDougle Family,

I want to share the bittersweet news with you that after 40 years as an educator, and 9.5  of these years as the principal at McDougle Elementary, I will be retiring at the end of this school year. It has been my privilege and honor to serve as your principal, and I will fondly remember my time with the outstanding students, staff, and families of McDougle. I’m grateful for your partnership and know that McDougle will continue to flourish in the future. I would like to thank you for the opportunity to work in this exceptional school community and hope you know how proud I am of our students and wonderful staff and all that we have accomplished together. 

I look forward to hearing great things about the continued accomplishments here at McDougle as you continue with our collective commitment of excellence.

Klein ISD is seeking input from McDougle Elementary’s parents, students, staff, and community regarding the qualities and character traits you would like to see in the next principal. A survey has been created to gather your input, and your participation is essential. Click on the link to access the survey:

I am so thankful I had the privilege to serve as your principal and for our partnership in making McDougle Elementary a wonderful place for students to learn, grow, and thrive. Once a lion, always a lion!

Kathy Rachal
Principal, McDougle Elementary
