From the desk of Beckie Webster
Thank you for keeping the focus on student learning
Did you know our staff and school is famous? The TASBO Office (TX Assoc. of School Business Officials) used our district, staff, campus and students to share with the world that the work we do in public education makes such a difference in the lives of our students. Thank you to Marie Torres, Jessica Meleck, Justin Gomez, Tonya Durden, Susan Pace, Steve Lunceford and Amber Rolofson for your time to create this amazing look at our work. It is such an honor to be in a profession that changes the world each day!

Her long-term sub begins with us here on May 1st-Hope Harrod. In the meantime, we have the Marvelous Melissas who will be supporting our SCSS students.
Teachers: If you need assitance with one of these students, please call Amy and state, "I need SCSS support in room ____".
