Count Down to Move In

We are anxiously counting down the days until we move into the beautiful new building. This evening the SBISD Board of Trustees toured the new campus. Everything is not completely finished but they were able to see how wonderful it all looked.

We are busy getting the students prepared for the move. Our student council did a very informative voice over of a video tour filmed by Mrs. Krug. Thanks to Mrs. Krug and Mrs. Emmons for all their help with this project.

We will be showing the video to each grade level in a meeting in the next few days. We will talk with them about all the new spaces and help them visualize (that's a great reading strategy, by the way) themselves in the new school.

Take a look at the video tour. Click here.

Don't forget. School starts at the new school on Dec 12. Parents should have received their packet of information about the move, the first day, transportation, etc last Friday. Call the office if you didn't get your info.
