I would like to give a BIG bucket drop to Lara Raesz for the countless hours she has spent helping all of our staff get TELPAS trained, collecting writing samples and auditing our ESL student files. She stays late everyday and is dedicated to the students of our campus.

Thanks to Marco Baeza for being an awesome team lead.
- Sofie Vastano
I'd like to give kudos to Ms. Davis and Mr. Leo for their contribution to the 8th grade E.L.A.R. Rising STAAR Initiative. It would not be possible without their attention to our kids and their collaborative natures.

Thank you to all the teachers that completed their STAR chart by this past Friday. You are awesome! Thanks to the Math department for 100% completion in record time.
Thank you to Coach Huffman, Williams, Ellis, Masuku, Eke, Dominguez, Smosna, Brown and Lampe for help with the Student Survey. They gave up PE and Athletics time so students could complete the RRISD Survey. Thanks so much for helping out.
