Buddy Benches are here!
Buddy Benches were delivered to each SISD elementary campus and will serve as a special place for students to go sit when they want someone to talk to during recess. The benches will also serve as a meeting spot to foster new friendships and positive interaction among students. Thanks to district supporters Mae Patti, Arthropology and The Home Depot for supporting Sherman ISD and #BuildingBearcats!
