It was all yellow! Pre-K scholars at Franklin Elementary had so much fun learning about this primary color as they explored materials and made discoveries about color, shape and texture through art experiences. Looking good, little Falcons!

What is a Voter Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE) and a school bond?

▪ VATRE: generates funding for day-to-day district operations, such as student initiatives for college and career readiness, educator pathways, and compensation.

▪ Bond: allows districts to invest in long-term capital needs, such as safety and security, renovations, technology, and Alamo Stadium/Convocation Center improvements.

Funding sources are separate, and each have different allowable uses.

We celebrated another Bond 2020 milestone! Schenck Elementary School hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony last Wednesday night. Guests were treated to charming performances by Schenck’s ballet folklórico and choir in the brand-new library funded by Bond 2020.


Additional Bond 2020 renovations include a new academic building complete with classrooms, extracurricular spaces, and a community room, one of the first in the district.  


Schenck first opened its doors in 1955 and had the largest cafetorium for the elementary at the time of construction. Go Owls! 

Bond 2020 is a project aimed to provide modern learning environments for modern learners through major renovations, updated security and technology, and HVAC upgrades. For more info on Bond 2020, please visit https://www.saisd.net/o/bond

Student collaboration is amplifying math learning at Longfellow Middle School. Sixth grade students walked the halls together engaging with fraction problems, sharing strategies, asking questions, and engaging in meaningful math dialogues about multiplying and reducing fractions. It’s more than finding the right answer. It’s about thinking critically, learning from one another, and making sense of challenging mathematics together. Great job, Spartans!
