Summer School begins Monday! We will be following guidelines from TEA and are overjoyed to have the opportunity to teach our students face to face during summer instruction! If you have questions about summer school, please contact your child's teacher or our office.

The end of school is the perfect occasion for a party, but that's hard to do when school has been closed and there are social distancing stipulations in place. 4th and 5th Grade teachers Mrs. Pollock, Mrs. Mallory, and Coach Cervantes had the perfect solution to that. They brought the Pizza Party to each of their students, along with uplifting signs and a whole lot of love! More photos are available on the SISD Facebook Page.

The wonderful people in the cafeteria prepared 5,352 free meals during the preventative closure of Strawn ISD. They were aided in the distribution of these meals by administration, office personnel, and coaches. Thank you to all who came together to help serve our community!

The last two weeks of school, our teachers traded traditional assignments for something a little different. Tailored to the different grade levels, these assignments teach basic life skills, such as preparing meals, changing a tire, making a grocery list, or doing the laundry. Here are a few photos from their learning experience! Great job, everyone!
