Two Goose Creek CISD High Schools
Face Security Incidents; All Students Safe
Two Goose Creek CISD high schools experienced separate security incidents Monday morning, November 9th, prompting temporary safety restrictions at Goose Creek Memorial High School and Robert E. Lee High School. Both situations were resolved, and district officials confirmed that all students and staff were safe.
Goose Creek Memorial High School
The campus was placed on lockdown after a parent drove a U-Haul rental vehicle onto school property and abandoned it. Authorities discovered two knives in the front of the vehicle, which was otherwise empty.
Police located the individual, who cooperated with officers and was subsequently arrested for criminal trespass. According to the district, the individual never entered the school building and was not carrying a weapon when located.
District officials specifically addressed rumors circulating on social media, emphasizing that no firearm was on campus and no shots were fired.
The lockdown was lifted, followed by a temporary hold that ended around 8:30 a.m. Normal instruction resumed.
Robert E. Lee High School
In a separate incident, Lee High School was temporarily placed on hold while officials investigated a report involving prohibited items brought onto a school bus by a student.
The district announced at 8:45 a.m. that the investigation was complete, the hold had ended, and regular instruction would continue. Officials did not specify what the prohibited items were.
Goose Creek CISD thanked district police and the Baytown Police Department for their response and encouraged families to rely on official district communications rather than unverified social media reports.

Mont Belvieu Launches New
Two-Bin Plastic Recycling Program
Mont Belvieu residents have a new way to recycle plastics. The City recently introduced its iSustain plastic recycling program, a two-bin system that separates plastics into two groups: FLEXIBLE and RIGID.
Flexible plastics are items you can easily scrunch into a ball. Think grocery and retail bags, bread and produce bags, zip-top bags, newspaper sleeves, dry-cleaning bags, and bubble wrap. These go loose in the FLEXIBLE bin.
Rigid plastics hold their shape. That includes milk and water jugs, detergent jugs, shampoo and lotion bottles, yogurt and butter tubs, takeout containers, plastic cups, plant pots, and soda and water bottles. These go loose in the RIGID bin.
A few reminders from the City: empty, rinse, and dry containers, and leave the lids on. Plastic bags never go in the RIGID bin. Paper, cardboard, and cans are still accepted, but glass is not.
📍 Where: Recycling drop-off station, 4031 Perry Avenue, Mont Belvieu
🕓 When: Wednesdays from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
The goal is to keep more recyclable materials out of landfills, one bin at a time. Sort smart, recycle smarter! ♻️

Baytown Wants a 7 Brew!
☕ Baytown Coffee Lovers Want Their 7 Brew!
In Friday’s newsletter, we shared that 7 Brew Coffee is planning new locations in Crosby and Dayton, and we asked where you would like to see 7 Brew pop up next.
The results are in, and Baytown was the overwhelming favorite, with Mont Belvieu coming in second! It looks like coffee lovers in both communities would welcome a 7 Brew of their own.
And here's something interesting — nobody who voted said they were happy with their current coffee choices! 😄
Thanks to everyone who participated! We love hearing what you think!
